For months, Sydney Malakeh\u2019s role on\u00a0Days of Our Lives<\/em>\u00a0carried an air of mystery. Now the secret is officially out: the actress is stepping into the role of\u00a0Sydney DiMera<\/strong>, the daughter of Sami Brady and EJ DiMera, bringing one of Salem\u2019s next-generation legacy characters back onto the canvas.<\/p>\n

And Sydney\u2019s return carries far more history than her young age might suggest.<\/p>\n

Days of Our Lives<\/em>\u00a0confirmed that Sydney Malakeh will make her Salem debut as Sydney DiMera on\u00a0Wednesday, September 9<\/strong>. Malakeh\u2019s previous television credits include\u00a0Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/em>,\u00a0Shrinking<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0The Sex Lives of College Girls<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The casting immediately places her at the crossroads of two of the show\u2019s most powerful families. Sydney is the daughter of\u00a0Sami Brady<\/strong>, played by Alison Sweeney, and\u00a0EJ DiMera<\/strong>, currently played by Dan Feuerriegel.<\/p>\n

That Brady-DiMera connection gives the character built-in history before Malakeh even appears on screen.<\/p>\n

Sydney DiMera Has Been Missing From Salem for Years<\/h2>\n

Sydney was born in 2009 and was portrayed by several sets of twins during her early years on\u00a0DAYS<\/em>. She eventually left Salem when Sami relocated to California with Sydney and her brother Johnny in 2014.<\/p>\n

The character later appeared in the 2021 spinoff movie\u00a0Days of Our Lives: A Very Salem Christmas<\/em>, where Evelyn Stephenson played Sydney as a preteen.<\/p>\n

Malakeh\u2019s arrival therefore represents more than a routine recast. Sydney is returning at a very different stage of her life, giving the series an opportunity to develop the character beyond the childhood storylines that originally defined her.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Her Story Began With One of DAYS\u2019 Most Painful Baby-Swap Plots<\/h2>\n

Sydney\u2019s family history is complicated even by Salem standards.<\/p>\n

Before Sydney was born, Nicole Walker had suffered a miscarriage while married to EJ. Desperate to keep the truth hidden, Nicole became involved in a scheme surrounding Sami\u2019s pregnancy and ultimately took Sami and EJ\u2019s newborn daughter, raising the child as Sydney. Sami, meanwhile, unknowingly left with another baby, Grace.<\/p>\n

Grace later died from meningitis, devastating Sami. The truth about the babies eventually emerged, allowing Sami to reunite with her biological daughter.<\/p>\n

It remains one of the darkest chapters connected to Sydney\u2019s childhood, and it gives the returning character emotional roots that stretch across multiple generations of\u00a0Days of Our Lives<\/em>\u00a0history.<\/p>\n

Sydney Already Has Powerful Family Connections in Salem<\/h2>\n

Sami will not be in Salem when Malakeh initially debuts. However, Sydney will hardly be without family.<\/p>\n

Her father EJ remains a major presence, while her brother\u00a0Johnny DiMera<\/strong>, played by Carson Boatman, is also on the canvas. Her maternal grandparents\u00a0Marlena Evans<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Roman Brady<\/strong>\u00a0give Sydney another direct link to Salem\u2019s veteran families.<\/p>\n

Those relationships give the writers several natural ways to integrate Sydney without immediately relying on her mother.<\/p>\n

And there is already another major family chapter on the horizon.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sami Brady\u2019s Return Could Make Sydney\u2019s Story Even Bigger<\/h2>\n

Soap Opera Digest reports that Sami is scheduled to return to\u00a0Days of Our Lives<\/em>\u00a0in\u00a0June 2027<\/strong>\u00a0for a storyline also involving Carrie Brady, Lucas Horton and Will Horton.<\/p>\n

That announced return makes Sydney\u2019s September arrival particularly interesting. The show has time to establish Malakeh\u2019s version of the character independently before bringing Sami back into the picture.<\/p>\n

For viewers who remember Sydney primarily as the baby at the center of Nicole and Sami\u2019s heartbreaking storyline, seeing her return as a young woman marks a striking generational shift.<\/p>\n

Sydney DiMera began her life as the center of a secret that tore families apart. Now she is coming back to Salem old enough to have stories, relationships and choices of her own.<\/p>\n

What kind of relationship would you most like to see Sydney build first: with EJ, Johnny, Marlena, or eventually Sami?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
