So, this is NOT confirmed, but on Daytime Royalty, there's all this hubbub because the actress Cady McClain (best known as Dixie Cooney, half of the supercouple Tad and Dixie, on All My Children) suddenly started following the cast of Days. When Missy's Twitter controversey over liking all these anti-BLM tweets came out, Cady was sort of the people's choice as a possible recast of Jennifer with a little bit of a movement taking place.
Anyway, one of the admins of that forum has sort of a short-hand where, when she can't directly confirm something that she knows to be true, she 'likes' posts that suggest or theorize that something is true as kind of a wink wink nudge nudge, and she's never really wrong about stuff. But she's now liked a few posts that have been like "Oh, is she going to be Jennifer?"
So... you know... take that as you will.
EDIT: Okay, it's now been confirmed. This is real, folks. Jennifer is recast.

I’m not a big fan of Missy Reeves but I’m a big Jack and Jennifer fan. This is a big blow to DOOL with its two leading ladies off the show. I didn’t like Stephanie Cameron as Jennifer either. I just think it’s very difficult to recast your biggest stars of the show.

BTW, I just read on TV Line that this recast could be temporary.

BTW, I just read on TV Line that this recast could be temporary. Yeah, different reports have said different things. There's some speculation that the whole "temporary" thing could be a face-saving thing to not embarrass Missy and make it seem like she's been fired. Like in a few months or something, once people are used to Cady, they suddenly go "Oh, actually, Missy decided to retire after all." and hope everyone moves on. But, obviously, it could be taken at face value... she does live in Tennessee, she is a new grandmother and with COVID it may just not seem like the best time to be commuting cross-country all the time.

Is it that Lysie person? The one who works for/with the show? Interesting...temporary or not, I THINK I am ok with this change. Cady can act, whereas the previous Jennifer (Stephanie Cameron) was downright awful. MR is ok as Jennifer, longevity and all, but it's always bothered my how OBSESSIVELY she repeats Jack's name during a conversation with him. Like when I talk to someone and no one else is around, I don't think I EVER use their name unless it's for emphasis! I also wonder too if it's to save some face since Lamon Archey and Linsey Godfrey were super vocal about the anti-BLM tweet liking thing back in June. Maybe MR just didn't want to have to deal with the confrontation?  Days of our Lives Shocker: Melissa Reeves Reportedly Out, Cady McClain In as Jennifer Horton |
