Leo Stark and Javi Hernandez Say I DO on DAYS Friday and Guess Who CRASHES THE PARTY?!

LEO STARK AND JAVI HERNANDEZ ARE GETTING MARRIED AND DIMITRI VON LEUSCHNER IS BACK IN SALEM!

TL;DR: Days of Our Lives spoilers for Friday, January 2 reveal Leo Stark and Javi Hernandez get ready to say “I Do” but Dimitri von Leuschner returns to Salem on the SAME DAY to stir up trouble! Plus Gwen becomes frustrated with her plan, and Alex Kiriakis has a very special gift for Stephanie Johnson that might be an engagement ring!

Dimitri von Leuschner Is Returning to Salem on Leo’s Wedding Day

Oh, this is going to be MESSY! Dimitri von Leuschner is returning to Days of Our Lives on Friday, January 2, and his first appearance back in Salem is at Leo Stark and Javi Hernandez’s wedding! This is NOT a coincidence!

Dimitri, played by Peter Porte, was last seen in December 2023, which means he’s been gone for over TWO YEARS! And he chooses to return on the day his ex-husband Leo is marrying someone else? This is peak soap opera chaos and we are HERE for it!

According to spoilers, Dimitri is returning specifically for Leo and Javi’s New Year’s Eve wedding to stir up trouble. The man couldn’t just send a card and stay wherever he’s been hiding for the past two years! No, Dimitri has to show up IN PERSON on Leo’s wedding day and create DRAMA!

Leo and Dimitri had a complicated marriage that ended badly. Dimitri was also involved with Gwen Rizczech at one point, which makes this whole situation even MORE complicated! Now Dimitri is waltzing back into Salem right when Leo has finally found happiness with Javi? The AUDACITY!

Why Is Gwen Rizczech Frustrated?

Here’s where things get INTERESTING! The Friday spoilers say Gwen becomes frustrated, and now we know WHY! Gwen is frustrated because of her PLAN!

Based on additional spoiler information, it looks like Gwen and EJ DiMera made Dimitri disappear. So Gwen’s frustration likely has to do with bringing Dimitri back! Maybe Gwen decided it’s time to bring Dimitri back as a distraction for Leo, who won’t stop investigating the shady hospital wing situation. Or maybe Dimitri escaped from wherever he’s been held and is throwing Gwen’s entire plan into chaos!

Either way, Gwen’s frustration makes PERFECT sense now! She’s dealing with Dimitri returning to Salem, Leo getting married, and whatever plan she and EJ have been orchestrating! That’s enough to frustrate ANYONE!

The timing of Dimitri’s return and Gwen’s frustration being mentioned in the same spoilers suggests these storylines are connected.

Leo Stark and Javi Hernandez Deserve a Drama-Free Wedding

Can we just acknowledge that Leo Stark and Javi Hernandez deserve to have ONE day without chaos? These two have genuine chemistry and their relationship has been delightful to watch on Days of Our Lives! They’re funny together, they support each other, and they clearly love each other!

But instead of getting a beautiful, peaceful wedding ceremony, they’re getting Dimitri von Leuschner showing up to cause problems! At least Marlena Evans will be officiating the wedding! So when Dimitri shows up, Marlena is going to witness this entire disaster unfold! At least Leo will have excellent therapy options available immediately after his wedding gets crashed by his ex!

Does Alex Kiriakis Have an Engagement Ring for Stephanie Johnson?

In completely different relationship news, Alex Kiriakis has a very special gift for Stephanie Johnson! Is it an engagement ring? We’re guessing YES!

Alex and Stephanie have had a complicated relationship with multiple breakups and reconciliations. If Alex is proposing on January 2, that’s a HUGE step for both of them! Alex has grown significantly as a character, and an engagement would show he’s ready to fully commit to Stephanie!

Friday’s Days of Our Lives Spoilers Are Pure Chaos

Friday, January 2 is going to be WILD on Days of Our Lives! Leo and Javi are trying to get married while Dimitri shows up to cause trouble! Gwen is frustrated about her plan! Alex has a special gift for Stephanie! And Marlena has to officiate a wedding that’s about to get crashed by the groom’s ex-husband!

We’re desperately hoping Leo and Javi actually get to say their vows, but with Dimitri returning after two years specifically to stir up trouble at their wedding, we’re not optimistic! This could either be a beautiful wedding ceremony or absolute CHAOS, and honestly it’s probably going to be both!
