Finally! Maggie Horton returns to DAYS

Finally! Maggie Horton returns to DAYS

It's been months since fans have seen Days of our Lives' Maggie Horton, so Suzanne Rogers' upcoming return to Salem will be a very welcome one!

Days of our Lives just doesn't feel like the same show without Salem staple Maggie Horton, who hasn't been seen on-screen since early this year. Fans have been missing the beloved redhead and her charming tough-yet-sweet way of keeping the town's residents in line, so the latest behind-the-scenes news from the NBC soap will no doubt bring smiles: Suzanne Rogers is reportedly back in the shoes of the character she's been playing since 1973.

Several DAYS actors have told the fan site Jason47 that Rogers recently returned to work after a months-long hiatus in which the writers didn't write Maggie into scenes. The actress' return airdate remains unclear at this time, but considering Rogers has very rarely been absent for such a long stretch of time, viewers are no doubt hoping she'll be back on the canvas sooner rather than later!
