SoapOperaNewsJake and Stefan Are Twins!
According to the latest edition of Soap Opera Digest, it will be revealed that Jake is not Stefan but his twin brother! In the magazine, Brandon Barash shares that Jake is horrified by what he discovers during his research on Stefan DiMera. Especially learning about the rape of Abby. “Like Jake says “The more I get to know this guy, the more I’m glad I didn’t know the guy,” he expressed. All of this leads to hesitation when Kate (Lauren Koslow) arrives with the serum in hand ready to bring back his memories. Finally, after a push from Gabi, he injects himself with the serum. While they wait for the drug to take its course, they meet up with Vivian and her longtime companion, Ivan. It’s there that they all learn the shocking truth. Vivian had given birth to twins and he only kept Jake a secret because he was told by the doctor that the baby wouldn’t survive. Barash shares that “Jake’s caught up in the moment of, “Wait. I’m not this guy. Am I relieved? Am I disappointed?” Jake also has to deal with the fact that Vivian is his mother after all and then there’s a heartbroken Gabi, who has lost her love all over again. “Jake is definitely empathetic. He’s disappointed for Gabi and feels for her but he’s also relieved that this nut job is finally going to leave him alone.” When Jake returns with the good news for Gwen she is quick to remind him that he is now rich. “That doesn’t change anything for him. He is a man who just cares about living a good life, living a happy life,” he shared. “Of course, he’d like to be financially stable, where he doesn’t have to worry about money anymore. But [the money] matters much more to Gwen than it does to Jake.”

Well on one hand I’m glad he’s not stefan cuz just ew
On the other i didn’t accept stefan as a dimera and I don’t accept jake either
I just don’t buy Vivian and stefano together it’s stupid and far fetched even for a crazy show like days
I’m glad gabi will likely leave after this reveal
Not excited to see Gwen getting a story, I find her annoying
It was fine having her as a temp but she just flooded the show and looks like we are stuck with more fast forward material
I’m also not looking forward to another battle for ceo drama
Give it a rest already
I don’t want to see him acting entitled to live in the mansion that chad bought
Ugh I don’t know if I have the energy for it this time around
I may have to sit this story out this time

doolfan4life Unfortunately, Vivian and Stefano did once sleep together on-screen. Stefano was in disguise and called himself Rudolfo. Vivian was not aware he was Stefano. However, at the time she did not become pregnant so this story is still farfetched.

I suspected he'd end up being Stefan's twin.

What was the point of all of this? To make Gabi suffer even more? To find a lame way of bringing Brandon Barash back? Ugh.

I actually preferred this then finding a reason to bring back another dead character. I still think they are headed to a Gabi/Jake coupling. These two still have lots of chemistry. |

I'm not sure how I feel about this. On one hand, I'm glad a dead character didn't return. The twin makes much more sense. However, I'm afraid that this will open another door for the show to bring dopplegangers back in without a sensible storyline behind it. At least when we had Rafe 1 and Rafe 2, there was a decent story. This seems like it was done just to torture Gabi more and it's just not worth it for me to become any more invested in it.

I definitely think it's a Brandon Barash reboot. He was "stuck" with the character being labeled as a rapist and had a lot of haters. Now he can move a new character in another direction (and maybe he and Gabi can be a rootable coupling if that's where they're taking it).
