As had been rumored, Aketra Sevillian is the next Days of our Lives cast member to make her on-screen exit this month.

Now comes word from Soap Opera Digest that Aketra, who has been taking on the role of Talia Hunter since back in March of this year, will head out of Salem on the Tuesday, October 17th episode of the Peacock streaming series.

Last week, Talia shared a heartfelt goodbye with Shawn Brady (Brandon Beemer), when they discussed their one-night stand. After that conversation, Shawn informed Belle (Martha Madison) he was heading out of town to get help for his drinking problem and to get his head on straight.

On DAYS, Talia came to town and stirred up plenty of trouble for her sister, Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu). After a twisted revenge plot on Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) with the aid of her abusive boyfriend, Colin Bedford (Jasper Newman), Talia started to turn her life around and got a job at University Hospital.  She had studied at Harvard Medical School, after all.

In story, Sevillian’s exit comes as Talia decides to head back to California. But, will she return down the line? Stay tuned.

So, are you glad or not happy to see the character of Talia leave the Salem canvas? What did you think of Aketra Sevillian’s performances in the role? Comment below.

I would have liked to see this character fleshed out a little more but I feel they put her in too many stories too fast that we couldn’t get an idea of what the character was really about.

The character was never written properly and needs to go

I loved her. She’s beautiful and I loved her.

Send her to GH!

Glad to see her go. She didn’t add anything to the show.

The actress is lovely, but I feel the storyline given to her was wretched, the dialogue often uncomfortable and bizarre.

Also, are the writers trying to tell the viewer that a simple one-night stand merits moving out of town for those involved?!?! How often does this happen in real life? Then again, how often does the devil take over a human (or multiple humans) and terrorize an entire town?

Yes. They need bring Horton back like Hope Jennifer Chloe. Bring Bo and Ben back also

I agree.

I would like to see Ben ,Ceria and little Bo back .
No more devil or dead coming back ,and switching babies.

I think if she has to leave she should come back to Salem with Shawn’s baby just to make a storyline entrance back to Salem

That’s what I think will to happen.

Honestly… not surprised. In what very little I saw of her she was very green and held little-to-no purpose.

She felt sorry for herself too much. It seemed that it was all about Talia

I liked the character and having her sleep with Shawn was inspired. You could feel the outrage which was good for ratings. But you know Days. The show will never break up a supercouple even when the pairing no longer makes sense. So blockbuster Belle and EJ didn’t happen and Shawn and Belle must continue this I cheat but I really love you merry go round when both characters would be so much more exciting with new partners.

Very annoying character. Glad to see this coming to an end.

Her eyebrow movement was sooo bothersome

Those eyebrows annoyed me to end I could never really look away and focus on anything else going on with her

I so totally agree, not only was she annoying but her voice was like chalk on a blackboard

The writers did not do her justice after she New Shawn was married and she was trying to straighten her life out of course we know there are not many suitable men in Salam her age.

Talia played her role well. Maybe she will return with a son or daughter??

All of the good actors are leaving. I love the rose that Gabby played. I would love to see her come back if not at least someone else playing that role. I also would like to see Johnny DiMera and Chanel Dupree remarry and take over the DiMera Company. They are younger and I would love to see how they would do in the next 10 years as a power couple.

Days should hire actresses who can be taken seriously as doctors instead of acting like little girls. She should never return, and Sarah Horton should’ve never returned.

Glad to see her go! I didn’t care for her acting abilities.

They could have done a lot with her past the limited storyline they gave her.

Would have liked her to stay and be part of the hospital staff which they need more of instead of Kayla and marleana.

She was beautiful and good actress but didn’t like story line.

Good. She was just awful ! All she did was cry! Lol

She’s cute, but she sure talks funny. “theeenk” for “think”… the worst was when she pronounced Taiko as “take out”. Gah.

I liked her. Hate to see her go.

Serena Scott Thomas to Days of our Lives, But What Role Will She Play?

Look who’s coming to Salem next? In a tease on their official Instagram account, Days of our Lives has revealed that Serena Scott Thomas has been on set and will debut in an upcoming role, leaving many fans guessing just who might she play.

The English actress and documentary producer has previously starred in Diana, Her Story as Diane Prince of Wales, Dr. Molly Warmflash in the James Bond  film The World Is Not Enough, and played the villainess ‘Watcher” in Buffy, the Vampire Slayer, and Bruce Willis’ wife in the film, Hostages among others.

Serena is the younger sister of Kristen Scott Thomas, best known for her Oscar-nominated role in The English Patient. Several DAYS fans are already weighing in that Serena will play Konstantine’s (John Kaeplos) wife.

However, NannyKat 63 may have it all figured out the best, when she posted, that not only will “Serena play Kostantine’s wife,” but the character “had an affair with Victor Kiriakis and got pregnant.” Thus, making Xander (Paul Telfer) her son. She went on to theorize, “Perhaps, And John and Steve will find her in the nick of time… and she’ll enter in time to stop the wedding of Maggie to him. Xander will find out his true identity then. The baby was given to Victor’s brother to be raised in Scotland.”

Sounds plausible to us! Another guess came from donnamoore_23 who said, “Ya’ll think he could be Bobberette ‘s mom or sister or .. SOMETHING to do with his story .. someone who can back up what trauma he went through to be so sick? 🤷🏼‍♀️ but I think y’all are right could be Katerina.”

Two DAYS stars, Tamara Braun (Ava) and Linsey Godfrey (Sarah) also shared comments on Serena Scott Thomas’ upcoming appearance on DAYS. Godfrey simply said, “YES!!!! while Braun add her guess, expressing, “Ava’s mum. Oh wait, her mom was killed by her dad. Or was she? 🤔”

So, what do you think? What role will Serena Scott Thomas play on Days of our Lives? Share your theories in the comment section below.
