Camila Banus
Camila Banus will be exiting Days of our Lives after 13 years of playing vixen, Gabi Hernandez.
The actress’ last day of shooting was April 28.
Banus tells The Wrap that she wants to do something different. “I’m ready for pretty much whatever comes my way,” Banus said. “My biggest desire is to work on films. I’m a huge film buff, and I would love to work on big budget films wherever, whenever that is. I’m just excited for cultivating new characters and possibly working on something comedic. I do think that I need to stretch that out because I think there’s a lot of potential there for me. I feel like people are really receptive to my comedic timing and I think that would be wonderful. I’m just excited for this new horizon of whatever is to come because I just love characters. I love cultivating them. The most wonderful thing about acting is playing pretend every day. I love to do that, and I can’t wait to do that with a bunch of other people and make magic again.”
Lauren Koslow
Yes, you heard the rumors that the actress had been axed from Days but it’s not true. Lauren Koslow returns as Kate Roberts DiMera Brady on April 28.
Ramon Fernandez
Ramon Fernandez portrays Mauricio on Days, a man who is in scenes on the fishing boat with Kate, who returns April 28.
Dick Van Dyke
Most will recognize him from either The Dick Van Dyke Show or Mary Poppins and now, Dick Van Dyke will be guest-starring on Days of our Lives in one upcoming episode.
Access Online refers to his character as a “mystery man with amnesia.” You can head over there to watch a clip of the actor working alongside Deidre Evans (Marlena) and Drake Hogestyn (John).
Van Dyke told the website, “I have played old men before, but comedy old men. [This is the] first time I have ever just played my 97-year-old self.”
“Some of the people have been doing it for 20 years,” Van Dyke said.
“That’s all the homework I can do, watch one and see how they do it. The other thing, you have to hold, ‘duh duh,’ there’s the sting of music and we’ve said something exciting.”
How the actor got the part? That was all thanks to Hogestyn who works out at the same gym as the Mary Poppins star.

The actress posted an image of herself with the caption, “About last eve…”

Ross debuted on July 16, 1987, as a teenager, and stayed until 1991. In 2014, Kassie DePaiva took over the role and was last seen in August 2020.
