🔥 Shockwaves in Salem! Gabi and JJ’s Explosive Breakup Over EJ’s Shooting – Betrayal, Regret, and a Race for Redemption!
By Days24 Editorial | April 13, 2025
Salem, a town built on love, secrets, and scandal, has just witnessed another emotional earthquake — the heartbreaking split of fan-favorite couple JJ Deveraux and Gabi Hernandez.
In the upcoming Days of Our Lives episodes airing April 14–18, tensions reach a boiling point as JJ accuses Gabi of shooting EJ DiMera, who remains in a medically induced coma after the shocking attack outside the DiMera mansion.
Chapter 1: Seeds of Doubt
It all began with a haunting memory — JJ recalls seeing Gabi with a gun on the very night EJ was shot. Though Gabi never pulled the trigger (as far as anyone knows), JJ’s mind couldn’t let go of that chilling image.
While the police zero in on Kristen DiMera as the primary suspect, JJ keeps Gabi on his personal list of possible culprits. His trust in her starts to crumble, and with it, the foundation of their relationship.
Chapter 2: The Confrontation
When JJ finally confronts Gabi, the room ignites with fury and heartbreak.
“You think I shot EJ?” Gabi asks, stunned.
“I don’t want to believe it, but you were there. You had a gun,” JJ replies.
His silence says more than any words could. Gabi, betrayed and furious, makes a decision:
“If you can’t trust me, we’re done.”
And just like that, the couple collapses under the weight of suspicion.
Chapter 3: Gabi’s Anger Takes Over
Gabi channels her pain into rage. She throws herself into her work at DiMera Enterprises, dodges mutual friends, and tries to act unbothered. But behind closed doors, she’s breaking. Caught crying by Chanel and found watching old videos of happier times by Rafe, it’s clear — Gabi is hurting deeply.
Even Kristen, ironically, tries to comfort her — though Gabi isn’t in the mood for sisterhood from someone who’s also a top suspect.
Chapter 4: JJ’s Guilt and the Road to Redemption
JJ is wrecked. Memories of Gabi and the love they shared haunt him. When he opens up to his parents, Jack gives him some tough love:
“If you still love her, you better start fighting for her.”
That’s when JJ decides to take action — not just to prove Gabi’s innocence, but to prove his love is stronger than his fear.
Chapter 5: The Break in the Case
A new clue surfaces — surveillance footage from a nearby traffic camera reveals a figure fleeing the scene at the time of the shooting. It’s not Gabi. JJ rushes to Rafe, who confirms the timestamp lines up with the attack. Gabi arrived afterward — which means she might be innocent after all.
Chapter 6: Apology and Aftermath
With renewed hope, JJ knocks on Gabi’s door.
“I was wrong. And I’m sorry.”
Gabi listens as he presents the footage. But her heart is guarded.
“It’s not just about clearing my name,” she says.
“It’s about the fact that you thought I could do it.”
JJ’s voice cracks:
“I’ll spend every day proving that you’re more than my doubt. You’re the woman I love.”
But Gabi doesn’t run into his arms. Not yet.
“Love isn’t always enough.” she says, quietly.
Can Their Love Be Saved?
This saga is far from over. JJ may have uncovered a path back to Gabi — but the trust between them is shattered. Will time heal this wound? Or is this the end of Salem’s most fiery love story?
What do YOU think? Should Gabi forgive JJ? And who really pulled the trigger on EJ DiMera? The mystery deepens…
