Days of Our Lives (DOOL) spoilers reveal that Matthew Ashford has been taken off contract, so he’s dropping down to recurring as DOOL’s Jack Deveraux. Ashford is now listed in the recurring section of the credits – and just in case you’re thinking it might be some mistake, Days insiders are backing up the change.
Of course, this news will disappoint many Jack fans, but it’s also not surprising considering he hasn’t had much of a story in recent months.
Jack still has a minor plot going on with Gwen Rizczech (Emily O’Brien), but he’s mostly been in the background while Gwen and Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul Telfer) have been scheming.
Fortunately, none of this means Matthew Ashford is out or that Jack’s off the show – at least not yet.
Days has plenty of other recurring characters, and the decision honestly makes sense with Jack serving as more of a supporting player lately.
DOOL fans may have heard that Melissa Reeves is set to reprise her role as Jennifer Horton Deveraux for the holidays, so Jack and Jennifer have a heartfelt reunion coming up.
Days of Our Lives spoilers say they’ll both be part of the Christmas festivities in Salem, so it’s good to know the Deverauxs have some fun stuff in store.
Naturally, it’s tough to predict what the future holds for Jack Deveraux beyond the holiday season.
Recurring characters can always pop up – whether they leave town and come home for visits or simply make sporadic appearances while still living in Salem.
Either way, Ashford remains on the cast and can still be used in upcoming stories.
As for what’s next on the NBC soap, Jack will eventually find out Gwen lied about the timing of her miscarriage.
Since Abigail DiMera’s (Marci Miller) returns this September, Jack will also reunite with his other daughter and have a chance to make true amends.
