Before stepping into the role of Cara Castillo on ‘All My Children’ and shortly after the end of ‘Passions’ where Lindsay Hartley played Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald Crane Winthrop, she played the role of a recast Arianna Hernandez on ‘Days of Our Lives’. Hartley joined the cast back in August, 2009 and was once again placed opposite her former co-stars; Galen Gering (Rafe), who again played the role of her brother and Eric Martsolf (Brady) who briefly played her love interest for a second time. It was a disappointing moment when the show decided to let her go in 2010 and killed off the character.


Luckily for fans of Hartley, no character ever really stays dead in the daytime world. And, with a writer of Ron Carlivati’s caliber, he could certainly pull off a resurrection story. While there are no confirmed plans in the works to have her return and there are many rumored returns still left to come on the show, Soap Opera News have been wondering if fans would love to see her reprise her role. 

Of course, the show could revisit that palpable chemistry between her and Martsolf who played one of soap’s unforgettable pairing as Ethan and Theresa on Passions. Their chemistry was revisted when they played lovers; Brady and Arianna on Days.  For one, the Hernandez clan got smaller as Jordi Vilasuso who plays Dario Hernandez is no longer on the show and is now on The Young and the Restless as Rey Rosales and Daddy Hernandez (A. Martinez) and Mommy Hernandez (Alma Defina) is off canvas. And two, Brady’s love life may need some development as the truth of Arianne Zucker’s Nicole Walker misdeed has come to light causing a worldwind of trouble. He also decided to walk away from his relationship with Eve (Kassie DePaiva) and Theresa (Jen Lilley) is off the grid. So, fans would you like to see Arianna back in Salem and paired with Brady once again? Do you want to see Lindsay Hartley return?

One response to “Together Again: Should Days of Our Lives Bring on A Little “Passions” & Resurrect Arianna Hernandez for Brady?”

  1. I ❤️ the chemistry between Brady&Arianna, but I'm a fan of Brady& Melanie, their chemistry was "happening as well. So, if there is ANYONE Idy want back in Brady's life who can DEFINITELY mae him happy, keep him on the "straight&narrow of sobriety, and have his back NO MATTER WHAT, it's most assuredly MELANIE and I feel that their story was QUITE UNFINISHED would love to see the possibilities of where it could go?
