‘Days of Our Lives’ (DOOL) spoilers indicate that Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering) certainly came home in a great mood, especially knowing that his family was safe again, but unfortunately his good vibes are squashed rather quickly upon hearing the news that Hope Brady (Kirstian Alfonso) not only left Salem, but that Ciara Brady (Victoria Konefal) is presumed to be dead, too. Here’s what you need to know.
Now that he’s back in Salem, Rafe was hoping to start his life over again and perhaps even rekindle his relationship with Hope. Even though it’s been some time since she pulled the plug on their marriage, Rafe still has very strong feelings for her. Needless to say, he was absolutely gutted upon hearing the news that she left town and without a trace, too.
‘Days of Our Lives’ Spoilers: Rafe Comes Home To The Ugly Truth
Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, Galen Gering, who plays Rafe on the small screen, offers this: “When Rafe left town, he thought he was going to be getting back together with Hope and they were going to be rekindling this flame they once had, that for one reason or another, hadn’t been allowed to burn. So he comes back and he’s done with all this stuff with his family and he’s excited about the possibility of what the future holds and now she’s gone? And to find out that Ciara’s gone and possibly dead? That’s a lot to take in. He’s obviously pretty devastated to hear the news on several levels.”
What’s more, Rafe also believes there’s a chance that Ciara might be alive somewhere. Galen continued, “He’s optimistic and subscribes to the belief that Hope also has, that Ciara is alive and somehow managed to escape by they never found any remains. He feels like there would be something there and so Rafe sets about trying to find Hope and track her down and see what he can do to help her.”
