By now, Days of our Lives fans have figured out that Alex Kiriakis (Rob Scott Wilson) will be revealed as Victor’s (the late John Aniston) son, not Justin’s (Wally Kurth), on upcoming episodes of the Peacock streaming soap opera.
In the Friday cliffhanger, Justin and Maggie (Suzanne Rogers) discover a brand-new will when they unpack the contents of Victor’s briefcase that was discovered in Greece. The fact that Justin discovers Alex is not his actual son, though, will astound them even more. Additionally, the most recent DAYS trailer depicts an emotional Justin telling Alex that he is not his father.
In the latest issue of Soap Opera Digest, Rob Scott Wilson shares on the Kiriakis family bombshell: “It’s such a huge plot twist. Obviously, it’s going to change the dynamic within the family and the power within the business.”
Wilson added on the key scene where Justin and Maggie just found out Victor had a ‘secret’ son: “Justin is definitely freaking out. It’s like he’s just seen a ghost. He wasn’t prepared to read this and then have Alex walk in on it.”
Rob explained how Alex and Justin’s relationship will never be the same after the revelation: “It’s like saying goodbye to the relationship that we developed and established in not too much time. It was quite sincere. As Alex attempts to comprehend how Victor deceived him while he was still alive and never revealed to him that he was his son, there will be a lot more to this narrative.
