Days of our Lives spoilers, December 25: A Horton Christmas filled with suspicions and strife

Here are your Days of our Lives spoilers for Wednesday, December 25, 2024.

What to expect on Days of our Lives

It's time for the annual Horton Christmas Eve celebration when the ornaments come down from the attic and out of their boxes for the Hortons and Horton-adjacent Salemites to hang on the tree. (Yes, it's Christmas Eve in Salem, even if it's Christmas Day off-screen.)

This year, the Horton house has seen its share of drama, heartache, and joy. A fire last winter sent Doug (Bill Hayes), Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes), Chad (Billy Flynn), and the kids to the Kiriakis mansion to live with Maggie (Suzanne Rogers) while Tom (Macdonald Carey) and Alice's (Frances Reid) house was restored. The family moved happily back in, but on Thanksgiving, Doug died, making this a bittersweet holiday for Julie and her loved ones.

However, Julie has Doug's grandson by her side now. Doug III (Peyton Meyer) looks quite comfortable in the Horton house, but Julie is starting to see the red flags now that Jennifer (Melissa Reeves) has pointed them out. Julie decides to see for herself if Jennifer's suspicions are right and begins questioning young Doug.

Doug III has already tried giving the diamond necklace to Leo (Greg Rikaart) to fence and ensured it is no longer in his possession. Julie may have no proof that Doug III stole the necklace, but her instincts are usually spot-on when it comes to bad actors.

Letting bygones be bygones

When Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) and Xander (Paul Telfer) arrive at the house with baby Victoria and Maggie, it will be the first time Xander and Jack (Matthew Ashford) have seen one another since their falling out in 2022. Xander and Gwen (Emily O'Brien) betrayed Jack when they stole the Spectator right out from under him, and Jack vowed never to speak to Xander again.

Now that they are in the same room, the tension could be cut with a knife. In the spirit of Christmas, it looks like Jack is ready to let bygones be bygones and forgive Xander for his bad deed. Jack knows all too well what it's like to make a bonehead move and become persona non grata with people he's cared about.

Xander and Sarah are both moved when Jack extends his hand to Xander. The two men find themselves hugging it out as Jennifer looks on with joy. Jack and Xander were once the best of friends, but now they're friends again on Christmas Eve.
