'Days of Our Lives' Promo Teases Legacy, Lies, and a Heated Accusation

A heated confrontation and a long awaited turning point are teased in the latest Days fo Our Lives weekly promo, previewing major developments for several of Salem’s families.

The promo, released on the official Days of Our Lives YouTube channel, previews episodes airing February 2 through 6, 2026.

The preview opens up with J.J. Deveraux (Casey Moss) confronting Jeremy Horton (Michael Roark) at the Horton House, as Julie Williams (Susan Seaforth Hayes) looks on during the tense exchange.

“He’s tried to kill Alex twice now.” J.J. says in the clip.

Julie pushes back, telling him, “You can’t believe that Jeremy is capable of that.”

J.J. replies, “I certainly don’t want to.”

The promo also gives a brief glimpse into a phone call shared between Vivian Alamain (Louise Sorel) and Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien).

During the call, Vivian tells Gwen, “All is going according to plan,” as Gwen smiles knowingly on the other end of the line.

Elsewhere, E.J. DiMera’s (Dan Feuerriegel) reacts to the news that his son Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) and daughter-in-law Chanel DiMera (Raven Bowens) are expecting a baby.

“The baby she’s carrying, is a DiMera,” E.J. joyfully exclaims to his son in the weekly preview.

Johnny pushes back, reminding his father that blood alone does not define family. “The son I already have is a DiMera,” Johnny tells him.

 The promo ends on a somber tone as the DiMera family gathers around to pay respects to Stefano DiMera (Joseph Moscolo) after his remains had been uncovered.

“Despite his flaws, he loved us fiercely, and we will honor his legacy and continue it. The house of DiMera will not fall,” E.J. DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) says, surrounded by his family.
