DOOL Spoilers: HOT Ariana returns to Salem with a new look, identity revealed

Big Return Rumor: Ariana Might Be Coming Back to Salem!

There’s a hot new rumor heating up Salem—Ariana Horton, the daughter of Gabi Hernandez, may be returning to the canvas as a teenager! Even more exciting?

Fans suspect she might be played by Marissa Reyes, who’s recently been spotted hanging out with the Days cast.

Ariana has been living with Will and Sonny for most of her childhood. While she’s thrived with her two dads, Gabi has long struggled with being separated from her daughter.

Ariana’s return could open the door for a long-overdue mother-daughter reunion—filled with emotion, tension, and of course… drama.

If the rumors are true, aging Ariana into a teen would allow Days to explore a whole new layer of storytelling.

A rebellious teen questioning her past, torn between her two families, would give Gabi some serious challenges—and possibly a chance to redeem herself as a mother.

Gabi has had a wild ride in Salem—from failed relationships and revenge plots to time in prison. But one thing has remained constant: her love for Ariana.

If Ariana returns, expect her to ask tough questions, like why Gabi wasn’t around, or why her life was always filled with chaos.

On the other side, Will and Sonny have always been steady, devoted parents. If Ariana chooses to stay with Gabi, will it cause conflict between the adults?

Could Ariana feel caught in the middle?

Fueling the buzz is actress Marissa Reyes, who fans believe may be stepping into Ariana’s shoes.

She’s recently been seen in social media posts with the Days cast, leading to strong speculation that she could be the new teen Ariana.

Ariana’s return wouldn’t just affect Gabi, Will, and Sonny. Her presence could ripple through all of Salem—bringing new storylines, love interests, rivalries, and family drama.

Rafe, Kate, and maybe even EJ DiMera could be pulled into the chaos depending on where Ariana ends up.

Whether she becomes a sweet teen trying to bond with her mom, or a firecracker ready to stir up Salem High, Ariana has the potential to be a major character in upcoming episodes.

For now, nothing has been confirmed by Days or Marissa Reyes, but the clues are piling up. Soap fans know that in Salem, “coincidences” are rarely accidental.
