Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Will Belle End Her Steamy Affair With EJ If He Risks Her Disbarment?
Salem has never been short on scandal, but the latest twist in Days of Our Lives has fans wondering if Belle Brady’s latest romantic entanglement will cost her far more than she bargained for. Belle, a talented lawyer known for her intelligence and fierce loyalty to her family, has found herself tangled in a passionate affair with EJ DiMera — a man whose charm is matched only by his history of manipulation and morally gray decisions. Now, as whispers swirl about legal trouble that could jeopardize Belle’s law career, the question on everyone’s mind is whether their relationship can survive the mounting pressure.
A Romance Born in the Shadows
Belle and EJ’s connection didn’t happen overnight. While their attraction had been simmering under the surface for some time, the spark truly ignited when they found themselves both feeling isolated and misunderstood. For Belle, the breakdown of her marriage to Shawn Brady left her vulnerable, and EJ’s charisma offered a dangerous but intoxicating escape from the pain. What began as stolen glances soon became late-night rendezvous and whispered confessions.
However, like many Salem love stories, theirs has been shadowed by secrets and questionable decisions. Their affair, while thrilling, has not been without its share of risks — and those risks may now be coming to a head.
The Threat to Belle’s Career
The latest DOOL spoilers tease that EJ’s actions could have very real consequences for Belle’s professional life. As an attorney, Belle has always prided herself on maintaining a reputation for integrity — even when her personal life is messy. But EJ’s dealings have a way of crossing lines, and if he becomes embroiled in a legal scandal, Belle’s proximity to him could draw the attention of the bar association.
Rumors suggest that EJ may be involved in a case or scheme that could be viewed as a conflict of interest for Belle. If she’s seen as complicit or even just as someone who benefited from his questionable behavior, the fallout could be severe. Disbarment — the ultimate career-ending punishment for a lawyer — would not only strip her of her livelihood but also her identity as a respected legal mind in Salem.
EJ’s Influence — Good or Bad?
EJ DiMera has always been a polarizing figure in Salem. For some, he’s the charming and sophisticated businessman who can talk his way out of nearly any problem. For others, he’s a manipulator whose wealth and power make him dangerous. Belle has seen both sides of EJ, and while she’s experienced moments of genuine tenderness with him, she’s also witnessed firsthand the lengths he’ll go to in order to protect himself or gain the upper hand.
The real question is whether EJ truly has Belle’s best interests at heart. Will he make the sacrifices necessary to keep her safe from professional ruin, or will his own ambitions and ego put her directly in the line of fire?
Family Pressure and Salem Gossip
As with any scandal in Salem, word travels fast. Belle’s family has already expressed skepticism about her relationship with EJ, with some openly warning her that he can’t be trusted. Her sister Sami has a particularly complicated history with EJ, making the situation even more volatile. If Belle’s name becomes associated with any wrongdoing, the Brady family will likely rally around her — but that support could come with even more pressure to walk away from EJ.
Meanwhile, Salem’s gossip mill is in overdrive. A public scandal could damage not only Belle’s career but also her standing in the community. Even if she avoids formal disciplinary action, the whispers and side-eyes from her peers could be enough to make her question whether EJ is worth it.
