Days of Our Lives 60th Anniversary Spoiler: Will Cat Come Between EJ and Chad DiMera?

As Days of Our Lives gears up for its landmark 60th anniversary this November, a newly leaked behind-the-scenes photo has fans buzzing—with Cat, Chad, and EJ DiMera featured together. Could the DiMera brothers be headed for another love triangle? Let’s break it all down.

Chad and Cat: From Deception to Connection

Chad DiMera has been spending more time with Cat as they work on the fundraiser to save University Hospital. Despite their rocky start—where Cat pretended to be Chad’s late wife, Abigail Deveraux—Chad is slowly finding a path to forgiveness.

What helps? Knowing that Cat only impersonated Abby because Clyde Weston was holding her mother hostage. While the rest of Salem, including Jack and Jennifer Deveraux, have shown zero sympathy, Chad is cautiously letting Cat in.

Cat has confessed feelings for Chad but claims she’s trying to let them go, knowing he may never return them. Still, Chad’s growing attraction is undeniable, even if he hasn’t crossed any lines—yet.

EJ in a Coma, Belle’s Confession, and Rising Complications

Meanwhile, EJ DiMera lies in a coma after being shot. Kristen DiMera is taking the blame, though rumors suggest she’s protecting her daughter, Rachel Black, from CPS scrutiny.

Before the shooting, EJ had been pursuing Belle Black. Although she rejected him, Belle recently confessed her love while he was unconscious—stirring tensions with her sister and EJ’s ex-wife, Sami.

With EJ out of commission and Belle emotionally conflicted, the future of their relationship is uncertain.

Behind-the-Scenes Photo Sparks Speculation

The real intrigue comes from a behind-the-scenes photo from the 60th anniversary shoot posted by Dan Feuerriegel (EJ). The promo image features EJ, Chad, and Cat together—prompting questions about what’s ahead.

While the setup may appear random, Days never does anything by accident. The scenes for the anniversary episode, airing in November 2025, were shot months ago—leaving six months for storylines to twist in unexpected ways.

Could Cat become romantically linked to both DiMera brothers?

The DiMera Brothers’ History of Shared Love Interests

This wouldn’t be the first time EJ and Chad have shared romantic partners. EJ once had a fling with Abigail while dating Sami, long before Chad got involved with her.

Both men have also been involved with Gabi Hernandez—Chad many years ago, and EJ more recently. Gabi slept with EJ to punish Stefan, and while he initially resisted, he gave in, resulting in regret all around.

Their overlapping romantic history makes a potential Cat-EJ-Chad triangle plausible.

How Could Cat and EJ Get Together?

Up to this point, Cat has shown interest only in Chad. But if Chad resists her advances—or even tries to set her up with EJ to suppress his own conflicted feelings—it could open the door.

EJ, if rejected by Belle, might pursue Cat either to move on or stir jealousy. Whether it’s organic or a setup, the possibility is intriguing.

Billy Flynn’s Exit Could Fuel the Triangle

Actor Billy Flynn, who plays Chad, is leaving Days of Our Lives for a role on The Young and the Restless. Although he’ll still appear on-air into early next year due to the show’s filming schedule, his exit removes him as a long-term romantic option for Cat—potentially clearing the path for EJ.

The 60th Anniversary Is Packed With Returns

Beyond the romantic drama, Days fans can look forward to a star-studded return of legacy characters:

• Jack and Jennifer Deveraux

• Hope Brady (Kristian Alfonso)

• Bo Brady (out of his coma)

• Chandler Massey as Will Horton

• Ariana Horton aged into her teen years

• Greg Vaughan as Eric Brady

• Anna and Tony DiMera

With these comebacks and more in store, the anniversary promises to be one of the most memorable events in Days history.

Love Triangle or PR Tease?

Whether the promo image hints at a genuine romantic entanglement or is simply meant to stir buzz, one thing’s certain—it’s working. Fans are eager to see what’s next for Cat, Chad, and EJ.

Could Cat really find herself torn between two DiMeras?

Stay tuned.
