After the latest episode, Days of Our Lives fans are doubting Stefan’s supposed death. For the longest time, the show has led the viewers to believe he died on-screen, but recent revelations may have hinted otherwise. So, is Stefan alive, and will he return?

Here are the details on the situation.

Did Vivian help Peter kidnap DiMera siblings in Days of Our Lives?

Days of Our Lives’ January 7 episode challenges the claim of Stefan’s death. In a surprising twist, Rafe informs Jada that the unencrypted signal from the crypt camera didn’t show Peter as the one who was monitoring the DiMera. Instead, the signal was from someone in Alamainia. This discovery led Rafe and Jada to suspect that Vivian Alamainia may have been working with Peter.

However, their revelation also makes them realize that Vivian won’t benefit if the DiMeras were killed, but Stefan would. But how would it benefit him when he was already thought to be dead? The only way Vivian could get the inheritance is if Stefan were alive, and he gets it all.

Adding to the mystery, Stefan’s death paperwork was filed only recently, even though his supposed death occurred months earlier. The two speculate that Vivian might’ve staged Stefan’s death to throw them off course. She could always choose to bring him back later. Meanwhile, she could’ve worked with Peter to help him kidnap the DiMeras.

Is Stefan still alive in Days of Our Lives?

The show never killed Stefan on-screen, which has led many to believe that it happened off-screen since he was kidnapped a long time ago. However, if Vivian is indeed working with Peter, then there is a possibility that Stefan might be alive because she would need him to get the inheritance.

Many fans also believe that Stefan and Vivian are in it together, which could explain why she would work with Peter in the first place. But if Stefan were indeed alive, would he go as far as to kill his own family? That is something that the show is yet to answer.
