Days Spoilers: Wealthy Gwen Returns July 7 to Exploit Xander and Sarah’s Marriage Crisis

GWEN’S BACK AND SHE’S LOADED: WILL DIMITRI’S FORTUNE DESTROY XANDER AND SARAH FOR GOOD?

Salem better brace itself!

Gwen Rizczech is rolling back into town on July 7th, and this time? She’s not the desperate schemer we remember. Oh no. This woman is RICH. Like, Dimitri-von-Leuschner-fortune rich. And her timing couldn’t be more perfect—or more devastating—for Xander and Sarah Kiriakis.

Let’s talk about this absolute disaster waiting to happen.

A Marriage Already on Life Support

Here’s where things stand: Xander and Sarah are married but separated. (I know, I know—another Salem couple bites the dust.) Their relationship? It’s hanging by a thread thinner than Leo Stark‘s patience when someone insults his writing.

The custody battle over little Victoria has turned UGLY. We’re talking supervised visitation for Xander at the Kiriakis mansion. Supervised! Can you imagine? The man who once ran Titan Industries can’t even see his daughter without someone watching. The trust between these two is completely shattered after Xander‘s violent outburst against Philip and Sarah‘s secrets about… well, everything.

And now Gwen‘s about to waltz in with pockets deeper than the DiMera tunnels.

Money Changes Everything (Especially When You’re Gwen)

Remember when Gwen married Dimitri von Leuschner for his fortune? Well, that little scheme paid off BIG TIME. She’s got the money, she’s got the motive, and she’s got unfinished business with both Xander and Sarah.

Let me remind you—Gwen was engaged to Xander in 2022. ENGAGED. She never got over losing him to Sarah. Never. And now she’s returning just as their marriage implodes? That’s not coincidence. That’s calculation.

What can money buy in Salem? Everything.

A judge? Check. The best lawyers? Double check. Revenge served ice cold? Oh, you KNOW Gwen‘s writing that check.

The Leo Factor: Partners in Crime Redux?

But wait—there’s more! (There’s always more in Salem.)

Gwen‘s not coming back alone. She’s reconnecting with her former BFF Leo Stark. Yes, THAT Leo. The one currently involved with Javi Hernandez. These two together again? Salem’s elite should be checking their bank accounts and locking up their secrets.

Remember the chaos they caused before? The schemes? The manipulations? Now imagine that energy backed by unlimited funds.

I’m getting chills.

Fan Theories Are Running WILD

The Salem fanbase is SPLIT right down the middle. Some viewers are practically begging for a Gwen/Xander reunion. “Sarah‘s been too controlling!” they cry. “Maybe Xander needs someone who actually trusts him!”

Others? They’re convinced Gwen‘s about to pull the ultimate revenge move. Picture this: She bribes the judge to ensure Xander loses ALL custody rights. Then swoops in as his “savior” when he’s at his lowest. Classic Gwen manipulation, funded by Dimitri‘s millions.

And then there’s my personal favorite theory—Gwen buying The Spectator. Can you IMAGINE? She’d have media control AND money. Sarah‘s reputation wouldn’t stand a chance.

What’s Really at Stake Here

This isn’t just about old flames or petty revenge. This is about Victoria‘s future. About whether Xander and Sarah have ANY shot at reconciliation. About whether money can truly buy you everything in Salem.

(Spoiler alert: It usually can.)

Emily O’Brien promised “fireworks” in her recent interviews. FIREWORKS. In Salem-speak, that means someone’s life is about to explode. My money’s on Sarah. She should be VERY worried. Gwen with money is like giving a toddler a flamethrower—dangerous, unpredictable, and guaranteed to cause damage.

The Million Dollar Question

Will Gwen use her fortune to:

• Win back Xander‘s heart while he’s vulnerable and alone?
• Destroy Sarah once and for all through the custody battle?
• Team up with Leo for schemes that would make Stefano DiMera proud?
• Actually help Xander fight for his daughter? (Hey, stranger things have happened in Salem!)

Or—and hear me out—what if she does ALL of the above?

Mark your calendars for July 7th, soap fans. Because when Gwen Rizczech returns to Salem with Dimitri‘s fortune in her bank account and revenge in her heart, NOTHING will be safe. Not Xander and Sarah‘s marriage. Not the custody arrangement. Not even Salem itself.

One thing’s certain: Gwen always shows up when Xander‘s at his most vulnerable. First when he was grieving. Now during a custody crisis.

Girl knows her timing. And this time? She’s got the bank account to back up whatever twisted plan she’s cooking up.
