As the first family of Salem, Tom and Alice spent decades raising generations of Hortons and serving as the moral center of the community.
The couple have five children: Tommy Horton (John Lupton) and Addie Horton (Patricia Huston), as well as Mickey Horton (John Clarke), Bill Horton (Paul Carr), and Marie Horton (Maree Cheatham).
As the show continued, their grandchildren and great grandchildren drove decades of storylines and Tom and Alice were always there to offer words of wisdom, support, and assistance no matter what the situation was.
On October 17, 1988, the show honored the characters with an on-screen wedding after revealing that their original 1930 marriage had technically been invalid. The ceremony became a memorable moment for longtime viewers as Tom and Alice renewed their commitment surrounded by family and friends.
Tom and Alice Horton appeared on Days of Our Lives from the show’s very first episode in 1965. Carey remained with the series until his death in 1994, while Reid continued portraying Alice until her passing in 2010.
Days of Our Lives streams weekdays on Peacock.
