It’s the moment Days of Our Lives fans have been waiting for. The show’s favorite, young couple Ben Weston (Robert Scott Wilson) and Ciara Brady (Victoria Konefal) are reunited. Like many soap opera pairs, the couple has been put through the wringer when overcoming obstacles.

‘Days of Our Lives’ fans consider Theo Carver a villain in the storyline

As the son of Abe Carver (James Reynolds) and the late Lexie Carver (Renee Jones), Theo is an adored younger character. However, Theo’s actions within the last months turned fans against him. His role in keeping Ben and Ciara apart made him a bad guy to many viewers.

When Ciara developed amnesia in an explosion, she had no recollection of her marriage to Ben and believed she was still dating Theo. Instead of correcting Ciara and helping her get her memory back, Theo used this to his advantage. Since he was still carrying a torch for his ex, he decided to take the opportunity to win her back. Theo’s behavior toward Ciara was appalling, and fans immediately dubbed him a villain. In a Reddit thread, Days of Our Lives fans discussed Theo’s switch to a bad guy. “He’s showing himself to be a real Dimera,” wrote one user.

Theo Carver gets left at the altar

Theo’s wish to be with Ciara again was coming to fruition. After divorcing Ben, Ciara agreed to marry Theo, although, at that time, her memory started to come back. Ciara was adamant she wanted to be with Theo, but that didn’t stop Ben from giving up on the woman he loves.
