Everett/Bobby Lynch is no more on Days of our Lives, as the mysterious character is now dead.
Blake Berris, who returned to Days of our Lives last fall in a mysterious new role, is now officially out, as Everett Lynch and his alternate personality Bobby Stein died on the August 1 episode.
Berris began his DAYS tenure in 2006 when he originated the role of Tom and Alice Horton's great-grandson Nick Fallon. He left the show in 2009 but returned in 2012, and Nick was killed in 2014. Berris returned for brief appearances as Nick's evil spirit on multiple occasions, but DAYS brought him back in an all-new role in 2023.
Everett Lynch was introduced as Stephanie's reporter ex who had ghosted her when they lived in Seattle. When he appeared in Salem at Stephanie's door last Halloween, he explained he had been hit by a car and developed amnesia. Eventually, Jada and Stephanie realized that Everett and Jada's ex-husband, Bobby Stein, were the same man. After Everett denied knowing who Bobby even was, Marlena discovered they were the same man suffering from dissociative identity disorder.
It felt like there was much more of Everett/Bobby's story to tell when Connie poisoned the Bobby personality to keep him from revealing that she had killed Li Shin and stabbed Rafe. Since they were alternate personalities of the same person, both Everett and Bobby died -- but not before Everett emerged to tell Stephanie he had always loved her.
Abigail Klein, who has played Stephanie since 2022, loved her time working with Berris and was sad to see it end.
"I could talk about this all day," Klein told Soap Opera Digest. "It has been my favorite storyline thus far. I really cannot say enough about Blake Berris. I can't say enough about working with him. I think I grew as an actor working with him, which is awesome. He played Everett and Bobby so well. Everett was this sweet, dreamy boyfriend, and Bobby was sort of this mysterious bad boy. Blake really liked to separate [the two characters], and he just knocked it out of the park. He's someone that I could never get tired of watching."
Since this is Salem, and Dr. Wilhelm Rolf is frequently available to bring people back to life at a moment's notice, there's no telling if Everett and Berris will ever return. However, for now, it looks like Everett/Bobby Lynch is really, most sincerely dead.
Are you surprised Everett died? Did you want to know why he had DID? Are you disappointed they never explored the Horton family link that was hinted at?
