Days of Our Lives has been running for over five decades and continues to entertain its audiences with iconic plots, unforgettable characters, and unique guest appearances. Set in the fictional city of Salem, the show revolves around the daily lives of its residents. Over the years, several characters have made brief appearances, including a mysterious girl portrayed by Sophia Tatum.
In 2020, during a rough patch for Xander, who was struggling in his relationship with Sarah, he called a hooker for services. Thereafter, Stacy Haiduk's (Kristen DiMera) real-life daughter stepped in and made a guest appearance as a hooker. Sophia Tantum appeared on Days of Our Lives as a mysterious woman who turns up at Xander's place to give services.
However, during that time, Stacy's (Kristen DiMera) character was offscreen, and the fans did not get the privilege to see the mother and daughter together in a scene.
In 2018, a casting announcement revealed Haiduk had been recast on DAYS in the roles of Kristen DiMera and lookalike Susan Banks. She joined the series for a second time in early 2019 on a contract basis.
