This week, Doug (Bill Hayes) died in his sleep on Thanksgiving Day.

It was something Days fans knew was coming following the death of Bill Hayes last January.

Susan Seaforth Hayes knocked it out of the park as Julie Williams, with our hearts breaking for the actress reliving her husband’s death on-screen.

The latest preview for the hit Peacock soap reveals that the celebration of life for Doug brings so many returns while rekindling some long-forgotten feuds.

There’s also another special reason Doug’s memorial takes place when it does and why so many former cast members returned.

Doug’s memorial marks Days of our Lives’ 15,000th episode

On Monday, December 2, the hit Peacock soap will air its 15,000th episode, which is beyond remarkable. It was a no-brainer...

Kristian Alfonso is back on Days of Our Lives. The Hope actress is one of several stars to return to the daytime soap this month. Sadly, the return was due to a real-life tragedy. Bill Hayes died, and the show is now honoring him with Doug’s death on the soap opera.

With her return, Alfonso also said that she has had to deal with one great regret that haunts her to this day. Here is what Kristian said she wishes she could have done before it was too late.

Kristian Alfonso Returns To Days Of Our Lives

Soap Hub looks at the Hits and Misses for the week of November 25-29 in the worlds of Days of Our Lives, General Hospital, The Bold and the Beautiful, and The Young and the Restless.

Top 10 Hits and Misses

#10 Miss: Kyle, Jack (Peter Bergman), and Diane begin to iron out the mess that is their relationship on Y&r. Kyle (Michael Mealor) finally admitted that he undermined his mom while he was at Jabot. That was huge, although we weren’t totally sure how sincere his confession was. Unfortunately, he still doubled down on his bitter takes…until Diane (Susan Walters) said she would sacrifice her co-ceo job for Kyle. That was when it seemed to finally hit him that Diane was sincere in her love for him and sorry for abandoning him and faking his death. But has Kyle truly learned a lesson or anything about himself here? Doubtful.

Take the weekend to recover from the heartbreaking episodes of Days of Our Lives revealing that Doug had passed away.

There’s more to come, but there’s also new hope as someone comes to Salem claiming to be related to Doug.

Life will also slowly get back to normal, with other stories coming back into the fold, but first, Doug will get the epic send-off he deserves.

(Peacock/Screenshot) Doug’s Death Will Bring Back Several Old Characters

Doug’s death coincides with Days of Our Lives‘ 15,000th episode, so it’s fitting that several characters from the distant past are coming for his funeral.

The third Doug Williams is the late Doug Williams’ (Bill Hayes) grandson, and it sounds like he gets off to a bit of a rocky start in Salem. Meyer told TV Insider about the character.

“When we first meet Doug, he’s a mischievous guy,” Meyer said. “He’s in and out of trouble. No matter where he goes, chaos comes with him. He’s not purposefully mischievous or purposefully wishes harm on people. I think it’s just how he grew up, that everything he does ends up causing a bad karmic chaos storm behind him. He’s a gentle guy and he’s peaceful, but it seems that...

I Will Love You Forever

After Jack (Matthew Ashford) broke the heartbreaking news to Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) about Doug (late Bill Hayes) dying in his sleep, Julie felt all the emotions from losing the man she just spent the last fifty years loving, learning from, and leaning on.

Jack immediately started making calls and doing practical things while Jennifer (Melissa Reeves) called Hope (Kristian Alfonso), and Eli (Lamon Archey) comforted Julie. As the episode progressed, more of Doug’s loved ones learned he was gone.

Throughout the episode,...

Days of our Lives spoilers for next week’s episodes of the hit Peacock soap tease big returns and a new mystery, all in honor of remembering Doug (Bill Hayes).

Doug’s funeral also marks the 15,000th episode of Days of our Lives, leaving fans with all those nostalgic feelings.

Most of the week will focus on the loss of Doug, but that’s not all that’s happening in and out of Salem.

Kristian Alfonso returned as Hope Brady on Days of our Lives today as news of Doug’s (Bill Hayes) death spread.

Ahead of her latest return, Kristian opened up about her biggest regret involving Bill.

Days of our Lives star Kristian Alfonso reveals Bill Hayes regret

Kristian opened up to Soap Digest to talk about coming back to honor Bill’s legacy as Salem mourns the loss of Doug.

For the week of December 2-6, Days of Our Lives spoilers focus on saying goodbye to a legend. Many Salem notables of the past return to say goodbye to Doug Williams after he passed away on Thanksgiving.

Rest in Peace, Doug Williams

Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) experienced heartbreak on Thanksgiving when the love of her life, Doug Williams, passed away in his sleep. Now, it’s time for Salem to gather to say goodbye to Doug. Look for his loved ones from near and far to gather in Salem for his memorial service.

Doug’s goodbye also coincides with Days crossing the 15,000th episode milestone. Earlier this year, the soap’s executive producer Ken Corday said that this tribute to Doug and his late portrayer, Bill Hayes, “will resonate a long time to come with our viewers.”

Returns and Reunions

As expected, Doug’s death will result in several big returns and reunions.

Days of Our Lives received a one-two gut punch this year with the deaths of Bill Hayes and Drake Hogestyn. Since the show records episodes several months in advance, it’s taken a while to address the passing of these beloved actors. Hayes died in January, and his character, Doug, passed away on Thanksgiving. Jack went to wake him up to join in the family festivities, only to find Doug died in his sleep. Fans noticed that his death was not unlike a couple of other Days deaths in years past.

Sad Reminders

On X, formerly Twitter, a fan wrote: “Doug Williams passing away in the Horton house while asleep, [is] just like Alice in 2010 and Tom in 1994, is a sweet nod to #Days history. #RememberingBillHayes...

Maree Cheatham, an original cast member of Days of our Lives, is reprising her role as Marie Horton.

The actress holds the distinction of having appeared on Days’ premiere episode in 1965 when it debuted on NBC (it’s now exclusively on the streaming platform Peacock). She played the part on and off until 1973 and has visited Salem a few times over the decades. Soap fans also recall Cheatham for her memorable stints as Aunt Charlene on General Hospital, Stephanie on Search for Tomorrow, and Aunt Mary on Knots Landing. Now, she’s going back to where it all began. Cheatham will appear on Days’s Monday, December 2 episode, which also happens to be the show’s 15,000th show. TV Insider caught up...

Peyton Meyer will make his soap debut on Days of Our Lives on December 3 as a new character, Doug Williams III, grandson of the late Doug Williams (Bill Hayes). Meyer, who began acting as a child, was living across the country when the opportunity to join the show came his way. “It’s a little bit of a crazy story,” he begins. “I lived for about 10 years in L.A. and then right around Covid time, I left L.A. and moved to Nashville and spent about two-and-a-half years there. I took some time off and then said, ‘I want to start acting again. I’m ready to get back in it.’ I booked a room in a house with some of my buddies. Four days after I had moved my stuff into that new house, I booked Days of our Lives, so it worked out perfectly; the timing was unbelievable.

It’s Thanksgiving Day in the United States, and most soap fans are preparing to serve turkey, stuffing (or is it dressing?), pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce, and many other festive dishes.

But this time, I was really excited to go back and it was just great to see how many people were still there from when I was there.” As Julie Williams’ (Susan Seaforth Hayes) younger brother, Steve comes home to Salem for the memorial for Doug Williams, played by Bill Hayes, who passed away in January.

Look Who’s Here

The last time Jennifer (Melissa Reeves) and Jack (Matthew Ashford) were in town, it was to meet their back from the dead daughter. Jennifer swore that the woman calling herself Abigail didn’t feel like Jennifer’s child. And she was right.

It turned out to be an imposter named Cat (AnnaLynne McCord). Chad (Billy Flynn) had her arrested. Then he had her unarrested so that she could help him bring down Clyde (James Read). Alas, their plan hits a snag. And that’s even before Cat has to face the couples whose hearts she shattered. Yet again.
