Days of our Lives 2-Week Spoilers July 27-Aug 7: Holly Erupts in Rage & Kate Pleads Hard!
Days of Our Lives 2-Week Spoilers for July 27 – August 7, 2026 enthrall fans with Holly Jonas (Ashley Puzemis) getting furious when she finds out somebody she trusted did her dirty. Plus, Kate Roberts (Lauren Koslow) is pleading with her husband. She’s apologetic and of course wants him to take her back.
Also, the two weeks of July 27th through August 7th, we’ve got Susan Banks (Stacy Haiduk) sensing evil and Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) being reprimanded by Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering). Let’s dive into what’s ahead.
Days of Our Lives: Gwen’s Disappearance and Cat’s Legal Mistake
On Monday, July 27th, Rafe is looking into Gwen Rizczech’s (Emily O’Brien) disappearance. Both Leo Stark (Greg Rikaart) and Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) are really worried about Gwen, who disappeared right after EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) found out he was losing the hospital to Gwen. So, the timing is very sus.
Also, Cat ran into Leo last week and heard about Gwen’s dead man’s switch. And then Cat, of course, stole it. She takes it over to Rafe, who asks what she’s got. Cat hands him a paper and says it’s Gwen Rizczech’s written confession. The problem is because Cat stole it, it won’t hold up in court because they didn’t get it using a warrant.
And you can’t use the information in the letter to go find other info. That’s considered fruit of the poisoned tree. And it’s a big law enforcement no. That’s why Cat really screwed up doing this. She’s also going to get a warning from Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall). And this could be about not underestimating EJ because he’s very dangerous.
DOOL Spoilers: Gabi on the Warpath
Also, Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier) tries to convince Gabi that he and Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul Telfer) are innocent. She accused Philip and Xander of the counterfeiting of the Gabi Chic goods and refused to invest. So then, Xander told Philip to go use her feelings for him and get that money. Philip seems to get through to Gabi because this week she’s telling him that she now suspects it’s somebody else.
Leo bumps into Gus (Michael Ocampo) and I wonder if he asks if he’s seen Gwen anywhere or mentions the counterfeit bags. Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) is stunned by Joy Wesley’s (AlexAnn Hopkins) newest demand. Sounds like something Alex knows will drive a deeper wedge between him and Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein). Joy’s looking smug as Alex storms out of the pub and Ari gives a slow clap because she saw whatever slick move that Joy just tried to pull.
Days of Our Lives: Kate’s Apology and Gwen’s Investigation
Then on Tuesday, July 28th, Roman Brady (Josh Taylor) gets an apology from Kate, probably about the Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) and Bonnie Lockhart (Judi Evans) stuff. But will he forgive her? I think Kate’s ready to beg because she’s noticed Marlena and Roman getting closer and doesn’t want to lose her husband.
Brady Black (Eric Martsolf) and Sarah Horton (Linsey Godfrey) hear a theory from Xander. He realized exactly how EJ could have slipped the drugs into Holly’s bag and tells them about it. Marlena, meanwhile, urges EJ to listen to his better angels.
Problem is, he’s basically Stefano Jr. at this point and does not have a conscience. Tate Black (Leo Howard) and Holly kiss and make up. And I wonder if Tate’s going to come back and apologize and say that he believes Holly about those not being her pills.
Days of our Lives Spoilers: Susan Banks Returns
Then on Wednesday, July 29th, we’ve got Susan Banks back to Salem, and she is convinced that her baby boy Johnny crossed lines. Susan’s ranting at EJ. He is not Stefano. And Susan says she’ll never let EJ turn into that monster. Sorry, Susan. Too late.
Chanel Dupree (Raven Bowens) gets cheering up and some reassurance from Johnny. We’re going to see Chanel and Johnny spending time with adorable little Trey. And Leo asks Rafe for some help. Leo may mention the dead man’s switch and how he’s desperate to find Gwen and wants FBI help.
I do wonder if Cat told Rafe the truth about how she got Gwen’s letter because, of course, Leo is going to tell Rafe that the lawyer’s digital file was inexplicably empty and Rafe may have to chastise Cat over what she’s done.
Also, Lexie Carver (Nikki Crawford) is caught in a lie by Abe Carver (James Reynolds) and Theo Carver (Tyler Joseph Andrews). She told him she’s going to see her mom. She’s really planning to swap and take Kristen DiMera’s (Stacy Haiduk) place and get shipped off to DiMera Island very soon.
Days Spoilers: Intense Confrontations and Italian Adventure
Then on Thursday, July 30th, Alex reassures Stephanie he will never agree to the terms that Joy’s trying to set. Alex is adamant. Meanwhile, Joy goes looking for advice from Belle Black (Martha Madison). Since she’s the DA, if this is in an official capacity, it might be pressing charges on Stephanie for the shooting. Joy may be trying to get some leverage to make Alex do what she wants.
Joy might be trying to get a restraining order. We’ll see. Rachel Black (Lorelei Olivia Mote) is released from Bayview and the family celebrates her return. We also have Gabi stunning Philip. They are going to wind up in each other’s arms this week. And I wonder if Gabi’s going to agree to invest in Titan now that she no longer suspects Philip and Xander of selling fake Gabi Chic bags.
We also have Alex getting up close and personal with Philip this week. Looks like an intense scene. And Sarah rants when she sees EJ is in Holly’s room again. Sarah tells EJ she told him to stay away from Holly, remember? But Holly said she didn’t want Sarah to be her doctor anymore. And Holly’s an adult. She can decide who visits. However, Sarah and Holly have a serious talk this week. And I think Sarah may tell Holly that EJ planted the drugs in her bag.

DOOL Spoilers: Leo Has a Theory
Then on Friday, July 31st, Gus (Michael Ocampo) and Javi Hernandez (Jacob Martinez) discuss the future. I suspect Gus may not have a real future in Salem. They haven’t even given Javi’s boyfriend a last name. This week, Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) asks Leo why he thinks Dimitri von Leuschner (Peter Porte) took Gwen.
And Leo says he texted Dimitri to see if he knew where Gwen was. And then Leo is going to show Chad the reply that he got from Dimitri that has his Spidey senses tingling. So, Leo’s trying to get to Alamania as fast as possible and he may head out with Chad and Belle who are also heading to Europe. Lexie gets a big surprise from Abe and Theo.
They want to make up for lost time, so they are doing a big Christmas in July. We’ve got Abe and Theo doing it up right with a Christmas tree and hats and stockings and gifts. Lexie and Abe swap passionate declarations of love, but her offseason Christmas celebration might be what runs her late to meet Kristen, and the timing is crucial. Also, Chad updates Rafe about Gwen.
So, we’ll see if Leo is going to get Belle and Chad to help him find Gwen before they head to Italy on their big chess set mystery. Kristen and EJ share a moment of honesty. This may be before his henchman snatches Kristen up and shoves her in a shipping container and tells her, “Have a nice flight.” I doubt Lexie is going to meet her to make the swap because she’s going to be on her deathbed in the hospital soon.
Days of Our Lives: Mysteries and Departures
Then the week of August 3rd through the 7th, Gabi may kiss Philip soon. But if so, I do wonder if he’s playing Gabi on Xander’s orders so they can get her money. Philip is totally capable of gaming Gabi like that, especially since he’s so ticked off. You guys know how vengeful he can be.
We may see Kristen gone for good soon, or at least gone for now. Stacy Haiduk confirmed a while back that she had wrapped her run on Days of Our Lives. She’s over on recurring status on Young and the Restless right now, playing another blonde lunatic, though.
Belle and Chad head to Italy to try and crack the chess set mystery, but Gwen’s disappearance may be a side trip in Alamania for those two. Leo is desperate to get his bestie back and now suspects that his and Gwen’s mutual ex, Dimitri, did the snatching instead of EJ.
I do wonder if Leo will tell EJ or if he’ll just keep it zipped and go. Also, if Gus is stealing Gabi’s designs and selling them to a knockoff company, I suspect that Leo is going to figure it out. Get the goods on Gus, but Javi and Gabi may not believe him and may think he’s setting him up out of jealousy.
Julie Williams (Susan Seaforth Hayes) soon has another date with Foster (Miles Anderson). It’s so sweet. I love that for them. Also, Holly’s out of the hospital soon, but she may never talk to her stepdad EJ again after the stunt he pulled with the Coriseal and setting her up to cover his own ass.
