Johnny slept with Joy Wesley, a newcomer to Salem, when he believed that Chanel was cheating on him. When this misunderstanding was cleared, Johnny found himself steeped in guilt and a messy situation. Since then, Johnny and Joy have been keeping their dalliance a secret.
However, spoilers for the soap indicate that their secret will soon be revealed. Chanel will likely uncover the affair during her New Year’s Eve party, setting the stage for even more explosive confrontations and emotional fallout. The preview for the upcoming week on the soap also showcased Chanel confronting her husband angrily about the affair, indicating that this will have a long-lasting impact on the plot.
What is Johnny and Joy's secret on Days of Our Lives?
The secret between Johnny and Joy began when he started suspecting that his wife, Chanel, was having an affair with her Body and Soul co-star, Alex. He even thought that he walked in on Alex and Chanel sleeping together, not realizing that it was Stephanie who had the secret romance with Alex. This incident became the root of the misunderstanding in Johnny's mind.
Feeling betrayed and unsure of Chanel’s loyalty, Johnny stormed off to a bar. In a moment of weakness and frustration, Johnny slept with a stranger for one night. However, he later discovered that the person he slept with was Joy Wesley, the new actor who joined the sets of Body and Soul.
As Joy and Johnny's brief one-night stand remained a secret, things became complicated. It was revealed that Chanel and Alex were not having an affair but had been planning a surprise birthday party for Johnny. The misunderstanding between Johnny and Chanel was fueled by his own insecurities.
In the face of this revelation, Johnny and Joy kept their secret, but there was much tension between them. Later, Alex also learned about the secret when Joy confessed to him. Even though he was shocked to find out, Alex agreed to keep mum for Joy's sake.
It seems that the secret is finally set to be revealed to one and all at a New Year's bash on the soap later this week. Chanel might be upset at her husband and Joy for keeping the affair from her for so long. However, it remains to be seen whether Johnny and Chanel's marriage will pull through after this matter comes to a rest.
