Days of Our Lives: Sarah has reason to worry
Recently, Xander Kiriakis overheard part of a conversation between Stephanie Johnson and his half-brother, Philip Kiriakis. The two insisted on keeping a secret from Xander's cousin, Alex Kiriakis. Xander assumed Stephanie and Philip were having a secret affair and informed his wife, Sarah Kiriakis.
However, Sarah realized that Philip and Stephanie were discussing Philip's forged letter that made him co-CEO of Titan, a secret that must be kept from Xander. Fearing Xander might become too curious, Sarah advised him to stay out of Philip's hair.
On the other hand, Sarah tried to convince Stephanie to let Xander believe she was having the alleged affair. In response, Stephanie emphasized that she would not lie if it affected her relationship with Alex.
On Thursday's episode, dated March 27, 2025, Xander lashed out at Philip for cheating with Stephanie, while Alex walked in on the scene. When Alex confronted Philip, Xander asserted the affair was true before Philip could respond. As expected, Alex went home to ask Stephanie about the veracity of Xander's claim, while Philip agreed to stay away from Stephanie in the future.
The Days of Our Lives spoilers suggest that Stephanie Johnson will not follow Sarah Kiriakis's instructions to admit she has slept with Philip Kiriakis a few times. Stephanie will likely come clean with Alex Kiriakis and reveal the real topic of the discussion between her and Philip.
With Alex aware of Philip's forgery secret, both Sarah and Philip will have reason to worry. This is especially true for Sarah, as her beautiful family with Xander and little Victoria will be destroyed when Xander learns that she kept Philip's betrayal a secret.
Catch the upcoming drama on Days of Our Lives as Sarah and Xander's lives come crashing.
