"Days of Our Lives" fans were stunned that the soap opera had killed off the character of Stefan O. DiMera and broken up the fan-favorite couple of Stefan and Gabi Hernandez. After Stefan's death, Gabi reluctantly allowed his heart to be donated to Julie Williams (Susan Seaforth Hayes) but vowed revenge on those who had taken Stefan from her, per Soaps.
Months later, in April 2020, Gabi was shocked to see Stefan alive and back in Salem living as a mechanic named Jake (via Soap Central). Jake claimed to have no memory of being Stefan, and it was later revealed that he wasn't Stefan at all, but his twin brother (via Soaps in Depth). It was revealed that Vivian had given birth to twins, Stefan and Jake. Jake then settled into the DiMera life and eventually fell in love with his twin brother's widow, Gabi.
While it appears that Stefan O. DiMera is dead and gone, "Days of Our Lives" fans know that no character is ever truly gone in Salem, and he could reappear in the future for some juicy drama.
