Days of our Lives’ Kristen is on the warpath. According to spoilers for Monday, May 18, 2026, she has quite a proposition for Xander. Will he take her up on it or are the other women in his life way too important?
Days of our Lives’ Kristen is losing her mind
Xander (Paul Telfer) can barely believe his ears when Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) tells him that she wants him to kill EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel). Xander has done Kristen’s dirty work way too many times in the past and it’s always backfired on him, so has any plot in which she has tried to kill EJ. Xander warns Kristen that she needs to give up on her quest to eliminate her brother, but she is not about to give up that easily.
Xander listens as Kristen lays out her plan, but does he have a chance to give her an answer? Xander later ends up at the hospital with Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) and Victoria. Will they serve as a reminder of what he stands to lose if he goes along with what Kristen wants?
The last time he did her dirty work, Sarah dumped him when she learned the truth. She finally allows him to be with Victoria again, so working for Kristen could ruin that. Then again, he might get enough money to save Titan…
Chanel confesses (part of) the truth
Chanel (Raven Bowens) is on pins and needles as she awaits her biopsy results, but she knows she has to tell her mother what is going on at some point. Paulina (Jackee Harry) is stunned and terrified when she learns that Chanel has a concerning lump in her breast while being pregnant.
Chanel tries to downplay it all and not let on that Sarah thinks this is indeed cancer, but Paulina can tell this is serious. However, she tries to remain positive for Chanel. She is catching this early and she is far enough in her pregnancy that she can receive treatment.
Chanel is not even ready to think that far ahead and is more concerned with getting through her pregnancy and giving birth to a healthy baby. But she still fears that she won’t be there for her children.
