Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Ava soon returns, revealing the truth about EJ being 𝗌𝗁𝗈𝗍
Ava Vitali’s Shocking Return Could Change Everything in Salem
TV’s Drama Digest is back with a closer look at the rising tension in Salem, and this time, all eyes are on Ava Vitali.
After disappearing the same night EJ DiMera was shot, Ava may not be gone for good.
Rumors swirl that her return could uncover the truth behind the mysterious shooting — and possibly shake the entire town.
A Suspicious Exit
Ava left Salem under suspicious circumstances. She claimed to be moving to Los Angeles to be with her son, Tripp, but right before leaving, cameras captured her tossing a handgun into a public trash bin.
The move was too calculated — and too public — to be ignored.
Caught on Camera
Security cameras across Salem recorded Ava’s every step: retrieving the gun, wiping it clean, and disposing of it. That footage is now in the hands of Salem PD.
Detectives JJ Deveraux and Shawn Brady are investigating whether the gun was used in the shooting that nearly killed EJ.
A Prime Suspect
Ava has a long history of violent behavior — from kidnappings to arson. She had motive: EJ once stood in the way of her relationship with Rafe and threatened her family.
She had access to the DiMera mansion and was there the night of the attack. Her sudden departure only strengthens the suspicion.
The Investigation Heats Up
Police have recovered the discarded weapon and are running ballistics tests. Even if the gun doesn’t match, Ava remains a prime suspect due to her timing and behavior. A warrant for her arrest seems inevitable.
Possible Defense
If Ava is brought back to Salem, she may claim innocence — insisting the gun was for self-defense, not murder. She could argue she left town to avoid danger.
Ava still has allies, including her son Tripp and possibly Kate Roberts, who might vouch for her under the right circumstances.
A Twist in the Tale
But what if Ava isn’t the shooter at all? What if she knows who is?
She might be protecting someone else — or planning to strike a deal with authorities in exchange for revealing the real assailant. It wouldn’t be the first time Salem was rocked by a last-minute confession or unexpected betrayal.
What Comes Next?
If Ava is arrested and brought back, expect a dramatic courtroom showdown, shocking testimony, and possibly a confession that flips the whole case upside down. Her return will impact key characters like Roman, Kate, Tripp — and of course, EJ himself.
Ava’s comeback could be the most explosive twist yet in Days of Our Lives. Is she guilty, innocent, or hiding a deeper secret? One thing’s certain: Salem will never be the same.
