Days Shocker: Abigail Marries Stefan

Chad and Jennifer are stunned when Abigail and Stefan announce that he took her away to get a divorce and married her to prevent Chad from committing her.

“Chad and Jennifer have teamed up to try to convince Abigail that she needs to get help,” notes Head Writer Ron Carlivati. “Abigail has this innate sense that she is not ill and that something is really not adding up here, but because Gabi has done such a good job of gaslighting and framing her, essentially, Abigail feels alone and feels that she has no one to turn to. She pulls off a pretty brilliant move and marries Stefan, and she does that because Chad, as her husband, is the one with the power to make this involuntary commitment happen. It’s a pretty shocking moment where Chad and Jennifer basically decide to have Abigail committed and she hits them with the, ‘You can’t commit me anymore, Chad. You’re not my husband. He is.’ ”
