Days of Our Lives has a new rumor to talk about, and it’s wild. Could it be that Cat Greene (AnnaLynne McCord) actually is Abigail Deveraux (AnnaLynne McCord)? If so, there’s going to be a lot of heartache in Salem.
Now, I know what you’re thinking. There is no possible way that Cat could be the presumed dead Abigail. But ever since they announced that AnnaLynne McCord was cast on Days,
we had heard that she was recast as Abigail, previously played by Marci Miller. And then it seemed to twist around. But the question is, is it going to twist back? I think it might. And there’s a lot of clues.
Days introduced Cat as a woman with memory issues, and then we found out she was faking them. For a while, Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) believed his beloved wife was really alive. And Abby’s dad, Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford), agreed to test his DNA against hers. If you remember, the test was a match.
And then Abby convinced Chad to go to Paris and remarry. But Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) realized it was a scheme and he found out that Cat’s brother, Dr. Marke Greene (Jonah Robinson), tampered with the DNA test. So right there, you may think, okay, that proves Cat is not Abby and cannot be.
However, it actually proves that she really could be. We’re going to get to that and why I think it locks it down. Stick around to the end because that’s the last clue I’ve got for you. But I have some more stuff to lay out first, and it may convince you this rumor about Cat being Abby could be the real deal.
Eventually, if you recall, Cat and Dr. Marke Greene confessed that hillbilly crook Clyde Weston (James Read) was holding their mother, Catharina Meleounis (Ellie Patrikios), hostage and demanding they do his dirty work or he would kill her. Cuckoo Clyde wanted revenge and he wanted wealth. His plan was for Cat to pretend to be Abby and to marry Chad, and then Dr. Marke Greene was going to kill him.
With Chad dead, his wife, fake Abby, would inherit and hand it over to the villain. But Clyde didn’t count on Patch figuring things out and saving Chad. So later, Cat was working with Chad, and they had an assist from Gabi Hernandez (Cherie Jimenez) and Jack Junior (JJ) Deveraux, and they tracked down Clyde and Catharina.
But if you recall, Chad was interrogating Clyde on where he’d put Abby’s remains. Because if you remember, Clyde told Chad that she was really alive. And then he and Jack went and exhumed her grave, but it was empty. Just before Clyde was about to tell Chad something really important, Catharina burst in and shot Clyde. And he remains in a coma to this day. And we never heard the secret.
There are many red flags and signs that support a “Cat is really Abigail” twist. First of all, Cat’s family, Dr. Marke Greene, Felicity Greene (Kennedy Garcia), and Aaron Greene (Louis Tomeo), had no idea who she was initially. She doesn’t look like their sister because Cat was in a car accident that supposedly killed her and their parents.
Now, Dr. Marke Greene knew this because he was part of the plot, so he knew earlier, but Cat later told Felicity and Aaron that she had extensive reconstructive surgery and then Cat had to spend a long time recuperating at a rehab facility in Italy. The second thing,
Nothing’s off limits: brainwashing, mind control, doppelganger surgery, realistic masks, and satanic possession. So, Clyde might have cut a deal to work with Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (Richard Wharton) and/or Andre DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) to get revenge on Abigail. And this third thing I want to talk about is presuming that Andre is alive, he may be working with him.
And it seems feasible because now we know Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) really has gone missing. So, maybe Andre got Dr. Rolf to implant Cat’s memories in Abigail. And it could be that the real Cat survived the crash long enough to extract her memories.
If this theory pans out, the real Cat could be frozen in a human-sized test tube in a DiMera lab somewhere, like Bo Brady (Peter Reckell) was for years. As to why Dr. Rolf would help do this, Stefano DiMera (Joseph Mascolo) hated Abigail, so that might have swayed him to do this switcheroo.
If Andre has been back for a while hiding in the shadows, which is plausible, he may have teamed up with Clyde, knowing how much he hates the DiMeras. The whole Cat and Abby switcheroo could be Andre’s sick way of getting back at Abigail for bashing in his head. And also, this would explain why Clyde supposedly stabbed Abigail to death only to resurrect and keep her, because he wanted to use her to torment them.
Clyde would love to torment the DiMeras. We know Clyde hates EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel), but he also hates that Abby chose Chad over Ben Weston (Robert Scott Wilson). And Clyde and Ben were both quite upset that Thomas DiMera (Christopher Cary) was not Ben’s child, but was Chad’s baby. If you remember right now, Thomas is neck-deep in this story. And Thomas was a bone of contention for Clyde. So yeah, Clyde might have decided to get rich and also get revenge, and he had this multi-layer plan.
Another red flag that it’s plausible that Cat is really Abby, is how much Jennifer Horton (Cady McClain) and Thomas despise Cat. Deservedly so. I’m not saying that, but Jennifer has raged at Cat. And of course, Thomas absolutely freaked when he found out Cat pretended to be his dead mom, Abby. Thomas will never understand how Chad dated Cat after she pulled that stunt. And Jen really hates Cat and won’t forgive her, even though she only lied about being Abby to save her mom from Clyde. So, can you imagine Jennifer’s reaction to find out Cat really is her beloved Abby after the way she’s treated her?
One last red flag is that since EJ and Abby had a fling before, it would be wild if Cat and EJ got together and then the truth came out. If Cat fell for EJ and then we find out she’s Abigail and she didn’t want Chad and wanted EJ instead, that’d be wild. We also know about Cat and EJ’s Wuthering Heights connection, and that could lead to sparks. The book, if you’ve not read it in a while, has a really tragic ending about losing the will to live after you lose your true love and also about a man who systematically destroyed the life of the woman he loved, who didn’t choose him. There’s very soapy themes there.
In the end, if this rumor turns out true, we would have Cat finding out she really is Abigail. Part of this would mean that she doesn’t know, and she’s innocent in all this, which I think is very important for a redemption arc. And that would also mean that the Greene family has to mourn the death of their sister Cat, unless she’s stuck in a DiMera lab somewhere.
And Jack, Jennifer, and Thomas would be horrified. They’ve been cruel to Abby. Chad would be crushed if Cat turned out to be Abby. But because he rejected her because he was forced to, she turned around and fell in love with EJ and decided to stick with him, it’d be so soapy.
And as for that DNA test that Dr. Marke Greene tampered with that I mentioned, here’s how it explains everything. So Clyde had to keep Dr. Marke Greene in line by holding his mom, Catharina, hostage, and he needed Dr. Marke Greene to truly believe that Cat is really his sister, even if she was not. So if she is Abby, the test would have come out positive and a match.
However, Clyde could have told Dr. Marke Greene to tamper with the test, not so much to convince the Deverauxs that she’s Abby, but to convince Dr. Marke Greene that this woman that looked nothing like Cat was really his sister. So, see, it’s all plausible. We’ll see how it plays out.
The man accused of fatally shooting a longtime American Idol boss and her husband at their $4.5 million Los Angeles home has been ruled unfit to stand trial.
Raymond Boodarian, 22, had been facing the possibility of a death sentence in connection with the July murders of Robin Kaye and songwriter Tom Deluca.
But Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Maria Cavalluzzi spared the suspect a long prison sentence on Thursday when she handed down the determination.
Judge Cavalluzzi declared that Boodarian was ‘not presently competent to stand trial’ as she announced that the murder suspect was being moved to a state facility to treat a ‘psychiatric condition with psychotropic medication,’ The Wrap reports.
‘The defendant lacks the capacity to make decisions regarding psychotropic medication,’ the judge said, arguing that ‘restoration is in the interest of justice, because this is a homicide case.’
Prosecutors have claimed
During an ensuing struggle, the 22-year-old shot and killed the couple – whose bodies were only found four days later after frantic family members requested a welfare check.
Authorities later determined that Deluca passed within seconds of being shot in the head and Kaye died minutes later.
Raymond Boodarian, 22, who is accused of fatally gunning down longtime American Idol boss Robin Kaye and her songwriter husband Tom Deluca, has been deemed ‘not presently competent to stand trial’
The couple, both 70 years old, were found dead with gunshot wounds
‘The victims returned home while the suspect had gained entry into the residence, and a confrontation ensued, which resulted in the suspect taking their lives,’ authorities previously said, according to People.
‘The victims succumbed to multiple gunshot wounds, and the suspect fled from the residence on foot.’
Boodarian was taken into custody just one day after the grisly discovery by policeman with their guns drawn at the rented Reseda townhome he shared with his mother and sister.
Officials have since said the murders appeared to be random, with no connection found between the suspect and the couple, according to People.
But Boodarian has a criminal history as well as a history of mental illness.
He was even nonresponsive and glassy-eyed to questions from a judge at an August arraignment on charges of murder alongside a special circumstance allegation for multiple murders while burglarizing a home, Deadline reports.
Nancy Kolocotronis, who is serving as Boodarian’s public defender, also claimed at the hearing that her client is suicidal after he arrived to the courtroom wearing a suicide gown.
At that point, Boodarian was determined to have ‘severe mental health issues.’
Prosecutors have said Boodarian was burglarizing the couple’s $4.5 million Encino home when they returned home on July 10

Police go to home of American Idol supervisor after grisly murder
Tragically, Kaye and Deluca had been planning on adding state-of-the-art security technology and a panic room to their Encino estate prior to their deaths, following a rash of burglaries in the area.
Security expert Guy Cohen from SecureIT Home previously told the Daily Mail he visited the couple’s house on May 20 after someone broke into their property.
‘Robin reached out to me and wanted a consultation,’ Cohen, 44, told the Daily Mail. ‘She was nervous because they had just had a break-in the previous evening.
‘An intruder came in through the sliding glass door in the kitchen. They were home and the dog started barking and she yelled and the burglar ran away.’
Search warrants obtained by the Daily Mail showed a neighbor called 911 at around 4pm on July 10 to report an intruder at Kaye and Deluca’s home.
About 40 minutes later, police received a second call from someone inside the couple’s home, claiming to be a resident. According to the warrant, the 911 dispatch operator heard the caller say, ‘Please don’t shoot me’ to someone.
The couple has since been cremated, and left their fortune to family members, various charities and even their pets in their will.
Kaye worked as the music supervisor for singing competition American Idol for the last 15 seasons
She and her musician husband divided $5.82 million of their personal assets among family, friends and causes they supported over the years
In court documents obtained by the Daily Mail, Kaye and her musician husband, Thomas Deluca, divided $5.82 million of their personal assets among family, friends and causes they supported over the years.
While it is still unclear how the proceeds of their home on White Oak Avenue will be divided, the couple left $100,000 to $1 million each to individual family members and friends as cash gift contributions from their personal assets.
The couple also set aside $100,000 for their beloved parrot Bogey, and gave two close friends $5,000 for the exotic bird’s care.
Additionally, the couple decided to bequeath their pet tortoise to the California Turtle and Tortoise Club with a $10,000 contribution from their estate and set aside $50,000 a year for living expenses and healthcare for Deluca’s elderly mother.
The remaining funds were divided among various animal charities, including the Jane Goodall Institute, the Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee and the Lola Ya Bonobo Sanctuary in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Deluca, who penned songs for various artists like Kid Rock and Mickey Dolenz, left all of his instruments to his brother Tim.
Kaye – who worked as the music supervisor for singing competition American Idol for the last 15 seasons – also left a list of diamond jewelry and other precious heirlooms to various family members and friends.
A probate judge will still have to approve the petition filed by the couple’s family members and attorneys.
In the meantime, Boodarian – who refused to attend the court hearing on Thursday – is due back in court on December 19 for a hearing to reassess his condition and the chances he could stand trial.
