Weekly Days of our Lives Spoilers January 12-16: Leo’s Left Shocked, Tate’s Next Move
Days of our Lives spoilers for the week of January 12-16, 2026 tease what’s next for Leo and Javi and a possible career shift for Tate.
Leo and Javi Are Put Through The Ringer
2025 was a tough year for Leo (Greg Rikaart) and Javi (Al Calderon) after fostering Baby Tesoro and then having to give him up. When they thought their year would end on a high note by tying the knot, their relationship went up in flames the moment Dimitri (Peter Porte) arrived.
Now, Leo will start the week by receiving another shocker from his ex. This will lead to Leo confiding in his best buddy Chad (Billy Flynn), followed by Javi ending the week with some troubling news. Things tend to get harder before they get easier in Salem, and Jeo have become the latest poster couple for that.
Brady’s Kids’ Futures
It also wasn’t such a happy new year for Rachel (Alice Halsey), who was brought back to Bayview after spending Christmas with her family. Now, the youngest Black is back to scheming with her Bayview buddy Sophia (Rachel Boyd), which may worry Brady (Eric Martsolf) enough to speak to his daughter’s doctors.
While Rachel and Sophia conduct a mid-week plot, Brady and Tate (Leo Howard) are left discussing the future of Basic Black. Brady has been on the outs from the company for a while, and with Tate possibly getting kicked out of school, it may be the perfect time for him to take over his father’s company.
Odds and Ends
Despite Alex’s (Robert Scott Wilson) insistence on staying cautious, it seems Stephanie (Abigail Klein) will object to her fiance’s wishes and come up with a book tour idea that neither he nor Steve (Stephen Nichols) like the sound of.
After Cat (AnnaLynne McCord) questions Gwen (Emily O’Brien) on Tuesday, Gwen will question Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) on Wednesday, and it all leads to Cat attempting a break-in on Friday.
