She’s every-where! And that’s a good thing! Daytime Emmy winner Eileen Davidson who is currently being seen as Ashley Abbott on The Young and the Restless, and will debut tomorrow night as one of the newest cast members of the hit reality series franchise The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is also back taping new episodes as of this past Friday as Kristen DiMera on Days of our Lives!
On-Air On-Soaps had to keep the news hush-hush during our most recent interview with the beautiful and talented star, but Eileen was slated back to DAYS this November for her next story stint, which will air sometime in the early Spring of 2015, since DAYS tapes so many months ahead. As to how brief, or how long Eileen’s return actually is has yet to be divulged.
And in story, what a return it could potentially be! Seems like Kristen would come back preggars, or even with child, wouldn’t it? After all, she snatched the embryo right out of Theresa (Jen Lilley) that is supposedly Brady (Eric Martsolf) bi0-child!
After a cryptic conversation with Brady that has had everyone mystified, it left many questions that will be answered when she returns next year. A DAYS press release touts on Davidson’s return this time: “It’s a ‘can’t miss’ story arc that is sure to take viewers by storm.”
Glad to hear about another Davidson “Kristen stint” in Salem? What do you think will happen when she returns this time?

Thank GOD she’s back!! Kristen livens up that place and I can’t wait to see how this baby-storyline plays out. I wish she had been able to stay longer, even one eppi/month would have been an awesome way to keep the viewers up on her pregnancy even if the rest of Salem didn’t know.
I know, right? I love Eileen.
Kristen will be back after having delivered Theresa’s and Brady’s baby. Of course, there will be a paternity test. The hurdle will be explaining how this baby was begotten without having had sex . I’m sure Kristen/TPTB will come up with something…plausible or not will make no difference…it’s a soap…LOL.
This storyline will prove to be very interesting and entertaining….what if the neonate looks just like Theresa?
Can’t wait for Kristen to return!
BEST NEWS EVER!!!
Absolutely adore Eileen Davidson! I will tune back into DAYS when I hear she is back on-air in the spring of 2015. I’ve been tuning in and out since she has left. I just love Kristen Dimera! (Tired of the Salem Hero (Daniel), the rehashing of the Dannifer break-up, and Theresa)!
Always good to see Eileen Davidson on DAYS but I am not down with the stolen embryo plot line. Save that for GH as that is its bread and butter anymore. I prefer to have DAYS try to stay the course of more realistic and human stories, nothing so crazy fantastic.
Stolen/Frozen embryo storylines seem to be GHs specialty these days
Kristen did not steal an embryo. She stole a fetus from Theresa’s womb.
I can’t believe I just wrote that!
I actually am growing to love these “drive-bys” that she’s been doing on DAYS and it’s served to both keep the character from getting too stagnant and also shakes up the canvas in a BIG way every time she hits town.
always loved eilleen as ashley growing up she was my fave y n r heroine!!! always dissapointed that her triangle wth victor / nikki never reached the pinnacle it should have especially after the last round with adam s gaslighting! i think with all this attention she s been given y n r should finally invest in a serious adam/ ashley/ victor / nikki storyline especially since eilleen plays well with younger hearthtrobs! ashley and adam would be explosive especially if adam returns as this gabriel alias! ashley/stitch/ vikki seems beneath eilleens talent and its about time y n r… Read more »
Love Eileen/Kristen So Happy she is coming back.. Really we need Her.. Thank You Eileen Davidson.. XO
Well this is definitely needed but even Eileen cannot save the show unless they use her correctly. Actually they have not been doing badly at all EXCEPT there is no reason for her to be interacting so much with Daniel. He’s just not my favorite character I guess, but really there are far more organic ways to weave Kristen into the canvas than to connect her with Daniel. I’m sorry but the elephant in the room is: WHY IS DANIEL AT THE CENTER OF EVERY MAJOR STORY ON DAYS?? Dear Powers that be, Why? Why always Daniel? In my experience… Read more »
Dear Occasional:

Best,
The Powers That Be
Dear Powers that Be,
I’ve worn out several FF buttons trying to be patient with your show. In fact come to think of it I should bill you for that. Invoice is in the mail.
All the best,
Occasional
Thank you Jesus!!!!
Next time she comes to town, can she bring Jason Brooks aka Peter Blake DiMera with her???? He was TOO gorgeous!!!! I miss the Woman in White too!! Haha!!!
Unfortunately Jason Brooks will never be back on the show. He reportedly had issues with costar(s) who are still on the show and it’s pretty safe to say that neither he nor the character of Peter will ever return to Days at least so long as that remains the case (although “never say never”).
What a great character though – the baddest of the baddies! Those days with Peter, Laura, Mark Valley’s Jack, Daniel Scott, Jennifer (both Reeves and Cameron), etc. – those were some great storylines!
I hear he’s coming back so it’s great news all around!
@Mark, u hear Jason Brooks is coming back?? The only issues I heard he had was his real life affair with Missy Reeves, the guy who played Ryan on YR(her husband) demanded she quit, hence her quitting at the height of her popularity in the 90s. But over a decade has passed and I am sure everyone has matured, so Jason Brooks needs to comeback, especially now that EJ is dead. Chad can’t carry it, and Stefano is getting too old. Plus Eileen and Jason had excellent brother/sister chemistry. Omg think of the flashbacks!!!!
Not that I doubt your sources, Mark but I won’t hold my breath waiting for this to happen, LOL.
Taping in November seem right on course for May sweeps of 2015, which means she will show up and give birth in Salem in time for the leaves in the fake park to bloom. By then Brady should have his act together, maybe in a new relationship, finally happy– then boom—she’s bacccckkk…….sounds like sweeps to me.
Kristen would have be 6 months pregnant so she would have the baby prematurely.
Theresa may have been 1, 2 or even 3 months pregnant before her embryo/fetus was taken.
Yeah but Theresa would be showing the signs of pregnancy.
How is Kristen going to explain the Brady baby without giving away that Theresa is the bio mom? That’s what I can’t wait to see.
She won’t because Brady already put the pieces together so she can’t even lie out of this one.
Nice news about Kristen coming back. Days is NOTHING without the Dimera family! I stopped watching after EJAMI left, but I might tune in next spring to see Kristen again.
I wish EJ would come back also, but unfortunately, I doubt that will happen. EJ, Sami, Kristen and Stefano add much needed excitement to Days. I wish they would all return as permanent residents of Salem. Otherwise, this show is beyond boring and rather pathetic in my opinion.
Michael, thank you for the information.
I think the same. The ones that makes the show has left the show. I wish Sami and EJ would come back to days. Also I am so glad that Kristen is coming back to days. I love her on that show. And Stefano.
There will be several developments involving the DiMera family in the months to come that would blow your mind! It’s a shame you threw in the towel.
I think she will come back with Brandy’s child
I don’t think so because she stole Theresa’a fetus so possibly Kristen pratically aborted Theresa baby and pratically the baby is dead so she must be carrying a already dead fetus and practically she will miscarry or the baby will be still born or kidnapped someone else’s baby and pass it off as Brady. Really I don’t want Theresa back with Brady and to have Brady’s baby.
Holy cow batman!! Amen !!!
As a new Days viewer, I have to say that Kristen DeMera is something!!!!!! Wow!!!!!! She’s a real nut job. I love her. So glad she will be coming back. I certainly hope Eileen Davidson doesn’t burn herself out with all this work. I know when you’re hot, you’re hot and you have to take it. But, she’s everywhere. Just keep showing up on Days and I’ll be happy.
Depends on how far along Theresa was. Up to 10 weeks medically it’s called an embryo. At 10 weeks they start calling it a fetus. Either way the idea of removing it from one woman and putting it into another is absurdly unscientific and would be a medical first as far as I know.
Thank you
Storyline is absurd ~ I know it’s a soap, but good grief, they transplanted an embryo – When Kristen comes back to town I guess she will be carrying Brady’s child, even though she is a tad on the mature side to be “with child”. How old is the character supposed to be? I know thanks to cosmetic surgery everyone looks eternally 35 or so but some of these actors have been on the show for quite some time. Won’t Theresa be wondering and thinking that it’s odd that Kristen is having a baby around the same time that she… Read more »
Yeah! I love ED as KD. Hope AS returns as SB.
Glad Eileen is back on Days. Expected her to come back, but not quite this soon. Nevertheless, very happy about this news. Looking forward to seeing how the baby story will play out. Hope the writers don’t mess up this story. They need to follow through with what has been started relative to the story and not skip over any details. Case in point, during the Kristen rapes Eric story, the video of Kristen and Eric that was shown at the Bristen wedding had been altered to incriminate Eric. That truth was never revealed to Salemites. It should have been… Read more »
I hope Kristen loose Brady and Theresa baby because to have a baby at 6 months wouldn’t she go into premature labor. My fact is that Kristen stole a fetus from Theresa uterus and I believe it didn’t took it latch on to Kristen old uterus. Besides she can’t pulled the wool over Brady’s eyes because on dayscafe.com. ..Brady already putting the pieces together about what happened to Theresa. My guess hopefully once Brady confront her Stephano it Kristen will tell him that the fetus didn’t took so she practically aborted Theresa baby and with Brady doing the check up… Read more »
I love Eileen for God sake come back and never leave lol, the only issue I have with Days is the they make Kristen too crazy I mean yeah leave some crazy but always redeem her like Dorian Lord in OLTL you wanted to kill her but then she would turn around and help someone and this thing with the fetus come on give me a break it’s so stupid I mean who writes this stuff my thing is make it more realistic she should of had a baby with Brady so there would always be a connection even when… Read more »

Ron Carlivati Talks on the Creation, Scenes & Cast of ‘Days of our Lives: Beyond Salem’
Last week viewers saw all five episodes of the limited-series Days of our Lives: Beyond Salem drop on Peacock. It was the first foray for the long-running NBC daytime drama series onto a streaming platform with an original self-contained story, in a move that is forward-thinking, and another avenue for soaps to be seen on and to keep the genre remaining relevant in the pop culture of today.
The head writer of Days of our Lives’ Ron Carlivati was also in charge of the overall story and direction and development of the creative of the limited-series, and following the initial streaming of all five episodes talked with Michael Fairman for in-depth look at the scenes, the moments and the casting of “Days of our Lives: Beyond Salem”, exclusively on You Tube’s Michael Fairman Channel.

During the conversation, Carlivati explained the impetus for bringing back Lisa Rinna to her signature role as Billie Reed, how the writing team created the parody of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills infamous “Amsterdam'” scene which featured Rinna and Eileen Davidson (Kristen/Sister Mary Moira) who also returned for the DAYS limited-series, and why they felt it was important to bring Davidson back to the roles she originated for the streamer.

In addition, Ron shares details of what went into the decision to recast the role of Sonny Kiriakis for the series with Zach Tinker, after Freddie Smith did not return for it, the casting of Peter Porte in his dual role as ISA agent Kyle Graham and bad guy Dimitri Von Leuschner, how the hilarious drag show scenes came to fruition, and how the decision was made to have Deidre Hall do the voiceover in the opening title sequence, plus his thoughts on the performances of the stellar cast.
