from daytime royalty daytimeroyaltyonline.com/topic/8541638/1/SOW: Sonny to Victor: "I'm gay!"; July 19th issue Sonny to Victor: "I'm gay!" Victor has a surprising reaction to Sonny's announcement that he's gay. As the week begins, Sonny is so busy with the younger set in Salem that he hasn't made time for his Uncle Victor. Adrienne and Justin inform their son that Victor is perturbed that Sonny hasn't paid him a visit. Is Sonny uneasy about coming out to his uncle? "Sonny wanted to tell Victor. I think Sonny's parents are scared," offers Freddie Smith (Sonny). "They don't know Victor will react and they're fearful for their son." Sonny stops by the Kiriakis mansion and Victor is thrilled to see his nephew. Taking note of how much Sonny has grown, Victor questions the young man about the women in his life. Sonny uses the opportunity to tell Victor that truth. "They have the conversation," acknowledges Smith, who adds that Sonny isn't awkward about sharing his news. "Sonny's very comfortable and confident with himself." How does Victor respond? "Victor is sorry for Sonny because he doesn't know how other people are going to react," Smith previews. "He's concerned for Sonny's safety because there is a lot of bashing in the world." Sonny assures Victor that he'll be fine. "Sonny has gone through a lot of stuff," Smith explains. "He understands where Victor is coming from. Sonny has traveled the world. He knows who he is and what he wants. He's not going to let anyone stand in his way." With the subject addressed, Victor moves on to other topics and playfully teases his nephew. "You can see that Sonny and his uncle are close," smiles Smith. "They're comfortable joking. Sonny wants his family and friends to accept him for who he is. That's what it is all about." Meanwhile, Adrienne's fears escalate and she interrupts their reunion, determinded to blast Victor. "Adrienne is very maternal," Smith points out. "She'll always stick up for Sonny. He calms her down and says that everything is okay between him and Victor." Maggie also gets into the act, poised to confront Victor about his "negativity". How will Victor handle Maggie once again meddling in his personal affairs? Credit: Forbidden Love |

It looks like we weren't the only ones to expect Vic to react badly,lol.I almost feel bad that no one seems to have that much faith in the guy,lol.It's nice though that Vic will be on Sonny's side,accepting of him,his only concern the bashing that goes on in the world.Good to know Vic sees that as a problem and only wants to protect Sonny from it.I'm becoming a little more than cautiously optimistic for this storyline.

LOL well, he does have a history of disapproving of EVERYONE. And, he is pretty old fashioned.
I'm glad they took it in another way, though. Dare I say, I'm pleasantly surprised by Days yet again?

I think the first time he surprised me was his acceptance,then support of Melanie.I was surprised when he said he really did like her.And here he is surprising me yet again,lol.But I feel exactly the way you do.Days is certainly surprising me alot more,and quite honestly,lately I'm very pleased by the direction of some,if not most,of the storylines.

I wonder who will be the one to disapprove. It would be pretty unrealistic if everyone approved of Sonny's lifestyle right off the bat. Unless it's Will's family who will have the problem with it.

Victor is such a misogynist. I guess men can do no wrong, only women.
Hey karebr, thanks for posting all these spoilers!

@jaysdelina, I was thinking the same thing reading that article, that everyone thought the worst of poor Victor (not that he hasn't earned that reputation). I'm really glad they are going this route instead of the predictable one. fluffysmom, it better not be Will's family having the problem. I'm going to be very annoyed if they make even gruff ol' Victor perfectly okay about it and then try to make out Sami or Lucas either one as not supporting their son. I guess they could make it Caroline though. She's been all over the place personlity wise and she has been established as "very religious" ... not that it kept from doing things like switching paternity tests. Kpatch, good point about Victor not liking women so he may turn out to be very supportive of Sonny's relationships. I was hoping that if they went the Will is gay route that they would have his love interest be a Kiriakis because of the Victor/Maggie angle. They both love Will and now they are establishing Victor and Sonny as close, so maybe just maybe Days will get it right and have the love story be a love story instead of the predictable coming out story that would have been focused on others reaction to the couple rather than the couple themselves. I knew if they tried the Will/Chad pairing that some wanted, it was going to be totally overshadowed by the Dimeras. The connection to the Kiriakis characters will allow the couple a better chance at getting their own story. |

Victor is just grateful that Chloe and Nicole won't be able to stick their claws into another one of his family members if Sonny likes dudes.
Also Victor is very supportive of any family member that is not Philip. Now that Philip is gone Brady is going to be the black sheep of the Kiriakis family who messes up everything he does and Sonny will be the good one who gets all Victor's love and support and can do no wrong in Victor's eyes.
I have a feeling once it is revealed that Will is gay that Kate will be interfering in Sonny and Will's relationship because no one is ever good enough to be paired with her precious children and grandchildren.

If TPTB ever wanted to give Victor a heart attack they could have a double wedding of Brady/Nicole and Philip/Chloe! Kate would be going ballistic too! |

If TPTB ever wanted to give Victor a heart attack they could have a double wedding of Brady/Nicole and Philip/Chloe! Kate would be going ballistic too! I could picture it now just as Philip/Chloe and Brady/Nicole are about to be pronounced husband and wife, Victor and Kate walk in the door and Victor has a heart attack while Kate tries to stop the wedding. And to make things even better Sami can remarry Lucas again and either Bo or Daniel can get married to Carly to add to Victor's misery and Vivian can be forced to live in the Dimera mansion to keep reminding Kate that two of her sons are married to two of the women she despises most in this world. |

Victor will for sure tell Maggie how she doesn't know him as well as she thinks she does, then laugh about it.. So glad they are showing Victor as a sensible man and not moronic.

I think Sami will be the one to have an issue with it at first (since she is so traditionally Catholic when it suits her  ). Ultimately, I think everyone will be supportive except Gabi, LOL |

Brought up a good point Trey... If Sami & Rafe have a hard time about. it's probably only because of how it hurts Gabi.
