On Thursday, July 11, Days of Our Lives will show Bill Hayes’ last appearance as Doug Williams, marking the end of the 50+ year super-couple, Doug and Julie.

Bill Hayes first came to Salem on February 5, 1970, as Bill Horton’s cellmate, a shifty character hoping to marry a wealthy widow, Susan. She wasn’t interested but paid Doug to seduce Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) away from another man.

Doug agreed but then fell in love with Julie. Their relationship was rocky: Doug married Julie’s mother and had a child with her, and they both married other people.

But in 1981, Doug and Julie married for the last time and stayed together. Bill Hayes passed away in January 2024, and due to the show’s filming schedule, their final scene airs Thursday.

Chad (Billy Flynn) wanted to dig up Abigail’s (Marci Miller) grave to see if Clyde (James Read) was telling the truth about her not being dead. He convinced Abigail’s father, Jack (Matthew Ashford), to help.

They now face the grim task of exhuming the grave, unsure if they’ll find an empty coffin, something unexpected, or Abigail herself. It's hard to say which outcome would be worse.

Meanwhile, EverBob (Blake Berris) tells Jada (Elia Cantu) that he knows who killed Li (Remington Hoffman). However, if the killer learns he’s been talking, will he survive long enough to decide his future? A surprise visitor will answer that question.
