Breaking News: Rex Brady’s Return

Oh. My. God. Did you hear the news? Kyle Lowder is coming back to Days of Our Lives as Rex Brady! I’m literally shaking right now, you guys. Just when we thought Salem couldn’t get any more dramatic, BOOM! Rex is about to shake things up all over again!

So, here’s the tea: Kyle, who first graced our screens as Brady Black way back in 2000 (feeling old yet?), is set to reprise his role as the oh-so-complicated Rex Brady. And get this – his episodes won’t air until 2025! Talk about playing the long game, DAYS writers!

Now, if you’re scratching your head trying to remember Rex, let me refresh your memory. Kyle first stepped into Rex’s shoes in 2018, and he’s been popping in and out of Salem like a sexy, science-savvy jack-in-the-box ever since. His last appearance was in 2023, but clearly, the powers that be couldn’t resist bringing him back for more drama.

Kyle’s Mysterious Instagram Teaser

But wait, there’s more! Kyle teased us all with an Instagram Story on August 12th, and let me tell you, it was more suspenseful than a Friday cliffhanger! He was all, “I’m back in a very familiar place today, and tomorrow, and the next day. Give you a hint — I’m in Burbank at a studio.” Um, hello? Could he BE any more obvious? (Chandler Bing voice intended)

And just in case we were all losing our minds trying to decode his message, a DAYS spokesperson spilled the beans to Soap Opera Digest. They confirmed Rex is indeed heading back to Salem, but in true soap opera fashion, they’re keeping the reason under wraps. Ugh, the suspense is killing me!

From Soap Star to News Anchor

Now, here’s where things get really interesting. Kyle’s been living a double life, you guys! He’s traded in his soap star status for… wait for it… a news anchor gig! That’s right, our boy’s been working as the morning anchor for KTVN in Reno, NV. Talk about a plot twist!

But don’t worry, soap fans. Kyle’s not abandoning us completely. In a 2023 Digest interview, he made it clear that the soap opera world will always have a special place in his heart. “The soap opera genre is the first job I ever had,” he gushed. “I love that industry.” Aww, Kyle, we love you too!

Family Ties and Career Decisions

So, why the career change? Well, it turns out Kyle’s got a softer side. He made the switch to be closer to his daughter, Isabella. How sweet is that? Isabella, born on December 7, 2009, is Kyle’s daughter with none other than Arianne Zucker – yep, our beloved Nicole from DAYS! Small world, right?

What to Expect in 2025

Now, I don’t know about you, but I’m dying to know what brings Rex back to Salem. Will he cross paths with Nicole? Could we see some awkward ex-spouse moments? Or maybe he’ll bump into his old flame, Sarah? The possibilities are endless!

Whatever the reason, one thing’s for sure – Salem better brace itself. With Kyle Lowder back in town, things are about to get real interesting, real fast!

So, DAYS fans, mark your calendars for 2025. It might seem like a long wait, but if there’s one thing soap operas have taught us, it’s that time is a very flexible concept in Salem. Before you know it, Rex will be back, probably stirring up trouble and looking fine while doing it!
