Days of our Lives fan favorites Kristian Alfonso and Peter Reckell have reunited on set for the spin-off series Beyond Salem.

It’s only been two weeks since news broke the talented actors would be reprising the roles of Hope and Bo Brady, roles that made them both household names. Although they won’t be returning to Days, the fact they will be on screen again is music to fans’ ears.

Peter chose to leave the hit NBC soap opera in 2015, and the character of Bo was killed off after being diagnosed with a brain tumor. Kristian stayed on the show for five more years in the role of Hope, leaving during the COVID-19 shutdown.

Both have stated several times they would not return to the hit daytime drama. However, they shocked fans last month when they signed on for Season 2 of Beyond Salem.

“Verified #goodmorning ?Here we #go ☺️ #dress @zimmermann #thankyou @therichardbloore ???? @matthewsjewelrystore charmnecklace ? #kindness,” she captioned the picture of her and Peter looking thrilled to be back.

It didn’t take long for the comments section of her IG post to become flooded with comments from familiar faces, happy to see Peter and Kristian back on set.

Victoria Konefal, who plays Bo and Hope’s daughter Ciara replied, “Bibbidi bobbidi Bope❤️?”

Lamon Archey (Eli) called them “Legendary,” while Kate Mansi (ex-Abigail) wrote. “LOVE this pic.”

I am so elated for the return of Hope and Bo. Have loved them from the beginning and they have been missed. Days was not the same. I can’t wait to see them together again.
This announcement brings tears to my eyes. Welcome Back!❤

She needs to come back to Days or they need to replace her. Totally unbelievable that Hope isn’t there for Ciara when she is pregnant! No mother would stay away when her baby girl is having a baby! ?
