Rachel Learns About Sophia
Poor Rachel (Lorelei Olivia Mote) is about to receive some heartbreaking news.
It’s been a while since viewers have seen her, as she’s been staying at Bayview, but her parents are about to pay her a visit. Unfortunately, this isn’t going to be the kind of family visit anyone was hoping for.
That’s because Rachel is finally about to learn the truth about Sophia (Rachel Boyd).
Brady (Eric Martsolf) and Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) haven’t been able to tell Rachel what’s happened to Sophia.
Now they have no choice.
Days of Our Lives spoilers for June 26 reveal that Rachel learns Sophia is believed to have taken her own life.
That’s a lot for anyone to process, especially a child.
And of course, Rachel doesn’t take the news well.
The two had become friends, and despite everything else happening around them, that friendship clearly meant something to Rachel.
Learning that someone she cared about is gone is bound to leave her shaken.
Belle and Chad Dig Deeper Into Stefano’s Mystery
Meanwhile, Belle (Martha Madison) and Chad (Conner Floyd) continue playing a game that only Stefano DiMera could create.
What started with an old chess set has turned into a full-blown mystery.
So far, they’ve uncovered a hidden key inside Stefano’s chess set. That key unlocked a secret compartment hidden within the board itself.
Inside, they found an old Italian thousand-lire bill.
Random?
Not a chance.
When Stefano is involved, nothing is ever random.
The bill appears to be the first major clue in yet another one of Stefano’s posthumous puzzles, and Belle and Chad are determined to figure out where it leads next.
The deeper they dig, the more intriguing this mystery becomes.
EJ Puts Xander on the Spot
Elsewhere in Salem, EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) decides to make things uncomfortable.
Then again, when doesn’t he?
Spoilers reveal that EJ puts Xander (Paul Telfer) on the spot in front of Sarah (Linsey Godfrey).
And if there’s one thing EJ enjoys, it’s having the upper hand.
Whether he’s exposing something, asking the wrong question at the right time, or simply stirring the pot, EJ has a knack for making people squirm.
But how will Xander respond?
Because if there’s one person in Salem who doesn’t like being cornered, it’s Xander.
Stephanie Makes a Big Decision
Also on June 26, Stephanie (Abigail Klein) makes an empowering decision.
She’s certainly had plenty on her plate lately.
After everything she’s been dealing with, perhaps she’s finally choosing herself for a change.
Meanwhile, Alex (Robert Scott Wilson) and Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) find themselves worrying about what comes next.
Let’s be honest. That probably means one thing.
Titan.
The company has been at the center of plenty of drama lately, and both men have a vested interest in what happens moving forward.
That’s all for Days of Our Lives spoilers for June 26, 2026.
So, how do you think Rachel will handle the news about Sophia? What do you think Stefano’s next clue will reveal? And is EJ about to expose something in front of Sarah that Xander doesn’t want anyone to know?
