Days of our Lives: Jada Reunites with Shawn in Romance Twist – Theo Left Heartbroken!

Days of Our Lives spoilers have Jada Hunter (Elia Cantu) heading out on a Valentine’s Day date with Theo Carver (Cameron Johnson) this week. But it looks like Shawn-Douglas Brady (Brandon Beemer) is about to reunite with Jada. So, that means Theo is looking to be dumped pretty soon.

We’ll get into why Jada and Theo break up and how that’s part and parcel of her getting back together with Shawn in coming days and the big crisis that’s coming related to that.

Jada Hunter’s Messy Romantic History in Salem on Days of Our Lives

Since coming to Salem, we have seen Jada Hunter’s dating life get pretty messy. She had an unplanned pregnancy with Eric Brady (Greg Vaughan). And he wasn’t happy when Jada Hunter terminated the pregnancy. Even though he had gone back to Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker) by then. Plus, we had the whole debacle with Bobby Everett (Blake Berris), who was Jada Hunter’s husband who cheated with Stephanie Johnson (Abigail Klein) and then turned out to have DID and then was killed by crazy Connie Viniski (Julie Dove).

And then Jada Hunter fell hard for Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering), who proposed. But then he got replaced by his doppelganger Arnold Feniger (Galen Gering), who dumped Jada Hunter at the altar. And then when Rafe Hernandez got loose, he came back to her. But Jada Hunter broke things off when she realized Rafe Hernandez had been warming the sheets with his ex Sami Brady (Alison Sweeney) on Days of Our Lives.

This time last year in February 2025, Jada Hunter hooked up with Shawn-Douglas Brady when they were both in a rough spot and then it just abruptly fizzled. So, what we know is that it’s been a run of really bad luck in the romance department for Jada Hunter ever since she moved to Salem.

Theo Carver and Jada Hunter’s Potential Spark on DOOL

She had that one awkward date with Jeremy Horton (Michael Roark) not that long ago. And then Stephanie Johnson sold her on the fact that he’s a stalker. And then we saw Jada Hunter starting to see Theo Carver. They had a great first date. But then Peter Blake (Dan Gauthier) henchmen kidnapped Theo Carver right before their second date.

And now, as Jada Hunter was doing maid of honor duties for Stephanie Johnson and Alex Kiriakis (Robert Scott Wilson) on Valentine’s Day. Theo Carver finally texted her to get that second date. However, rarely seen hunky detective Shawn-Douglas Brady may prove problematic for Theo Carver getting anywhere too far with Jada Hunter.

Now, I will say Theo Carver and Jada Hunter definitely have a spark between them. She’s the first woman he dated since his split from Claire Brady (Isabel Durant). After she cheated on him and Theo Carver returned heartbroken to Salem late last year. So, after matching on the local dating app Salem Singles, we saw Jada Hunter and Theo Carver having a fun time. They got to know each other. They were playing chess. It was kind of nerdy, kind of sweet.

But then his kidnapping derailed things. And then of course Peter Blake almost killed Theo Carver and as a result he spent weeks in Salem University Hospital and he was just recently released. Now Theo Carver is ready to take Jada Hunter out on the town again. And she seemed really excited to get the text from Theo Carver for the date, especially since it’s Valentine’s Day.

The Gabi Hernandez and Philip Kiriakis Love Triangle

Problem is Jada Hunter is not the only woman on Theo Carver’s mind. He’s crushing on Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez). But she’s got a boyfriend, Philip Kiriakis (John-Paul Lavoisier). But Theo Carver is still crushing. And Shawn-Douglas Brady, of course, is another problem coming soon for Jada Hunter and Theo Carver.

Now, fans haven’t seen a whole lot of Shawn-Douglas Brady on Days of Our Lives since he got back from visiting his and Belle Black (Martha Madison) daughter Claire Brady in South Africa. But Shawn-Douglas Brady might have come back with a plan to rekindle things with Jada Hunter. Maybe time away had him realize, “Oh, this is who I want to be with.”

And I also have a feeling that Theo Carver’s date with Jada Hunter might not go so well. It could be that while they’re out, they see Gabi Hernandez with Philip Kiriakis. Now, I know Gabi Hernandez was talking about going away with Philip Kiriakis to Miami. But they still might have a run-in in the square on the way to the airport or on the way back.

And if Theo Carver is looking like he’s smitten with Gabi Hernandez, I think that’s something Jada Hunter would notice and would not ignore. If you remember, Theo Carver was even obsessed with the tiny little cactus that Gabi Hernandez brought him up to the hospital. You would think it might be something with his traumatic brain injury or the drugs. But Theo Carver still seems smitten with Gabi even after he’s recovered. So Jada Hunter could ditch Theo Carver for flirting with another woman on their date.

Shawn-Douglas Brady and Jada Hunter’s Confirmed Recoupling on Days

Another possibility is that Jada Hunter and Theo Carver run into Shawn-Douglas Brady while they’re out and about on Valentine’s Day. And Jada Hunter may still feel that spark when she sees Shawn-Douglas Brady. And I’m sure he’s going to be alone on Heart’s Day. So it could be that Theo Carver tells Jada Hunter that he doesn’t want a third date. Because she was flirty with Shawn-Douglas Brady.

That could be another way that this works out. Because we do know that this is confirmed, this recoupling. But since Theo Carver’s got his eye on Gabi Hernandez and has the ammunition to break up her and Philip Kiriakis, that might be the route it goes. If Theo Carver tells Philip Kiriakis that Gabi Hernandez planted the bug in the Titan office, they might be done.

Whether Theo Carver does the dumping or is the dumpy, we know he wants to be with Gabi Hernandez. And some viewers were pretty disappointed that Days paired off Jada Hunter and Shawn-Douglas Brady a full year ago and then abruptly abandoned them as a couple. That might have been down to the shift in head writers. The new writer material kicked off not too long after Jada Hunter was with Shawn-Douglas Brady. So all of this is about to change.

Official Peacock Post Teases Shawn-Douglas Brady and Jada Hunter’s Romance on Days of Our Lives

So this week in an official Peacock social media post, we saw the actors who play Jada Hunter and Shawn-Douglas Brady, Elia Cantu and Brandon Beemer. And they were being interviewed as if they were their characters. There were a whole series of these videos. Alex Kiriakis and Stephanie Johnson did one.

So in this particular video, Shawn-Douglas Brady and Jada Hunter are asked whether they are a couple. And they say that they are. So not her and Theo Carver. But Shawn-Douglas Brady and Jada Hunter. And then Shawn-Douglas Brady is talking about them meeting on the job and they joke about Jada Hunter’s ex-fiancé and Shawn-Douglas Brady’s former stepdad Rafe Hernandez being the one who brought them together. Shawn-Douglas Brady and Jada Hunter are joking that handcuffs make their relationship work.

Life and Death Drama: Shawn-Douglas Brady Shot in the Snow

We also know from the long winter promo that Jack Junior (JJ) Deveraux (Casey Moss) is with Shawn-Douglas Brady in the park and Liam’s there too and Shawn-Douglas Brady winds up shot, bleeding out in the snow. So, that’s coming soon, possibly by the end of sweeps. We know Liam is helping the cops try and find the guy who paid him to stalk her at the crypt.

The money came from Peter Blake. But we know Liam was working with some other guy, the one with the scar. And then we saw, oh, okay, that’s Vivian Alamain (Louise Sorel) new henchman. So, Shawn-Douglas Brady may be shot as part of the SPD working on the DiMera kidnapping case, or it could be something where Stephanie Johnson’s stalker is the reason that Shawn-Douglas Brady is shot.

We know that Owen Kent (Wes Ramsey) is unhinged and he’s the stalker and he might have a co-conspirator. And once Shawn-Douglas Brady gets shot, no matter why he’s shot and he’s fighting for his life, that’s when Jada Hunter may realize that it’s Shawn-Douglas Brady that she wants. So maybe Jada Hunter sticks with Theo Carver until then and calls off their fledgling romance so she can be there at Shawn-Douglas Brady’s bedside when he wakes up.

Will Belle Black Ruin Shawn-Douglas Brady and Jada Hunter’s Future on DOOL?

And of course, some Days fans think that any relationship between Jada Hunter and Shawn-Douglas Brady will be short-lived. Because of his ex-wife Belle Black. She’s single and she and Shawn-Douglas Brady have been on again, off again for years. But you never know, maybe he wants off that merry-go-round and he is going to stick with Jada Hunter.
