This ‘Days of Our Lives’ Couple Is Finally Exploring Their Connection Again
Days of Our Lives fans rejoice as Shawn Brady and Jada Hunter are set to reunite in June, reigniting their slow-burn romance on Peacock.
According to spoilers released by SWOON‘s Stephanie Sloane, the couple will finally acknowledge their growing feelings for one another in June.
Fans were given their first indication that something was brewing between the two when the official Days of Our Lives Instagram account shared a playful video captioned, “What keeps things spicy in Jada and Shawn’s relationship? Find out in their #MeetCute 👀 😏.”
In the clip, Shawn and Jada confirm their relationship status as an unknown voice asked, “Are you a couple?” to which they responded, “Yeah, yeah we are..”
Shawn explained that they got together because they had been paired at work. “We got set up together at work, as partners,” he said.
Meanwhile, Jada adds context to the story, sharing that they were brought together by “my almost ex-husband or almost husband,” and Shawn replies, “My ex-stepfather,” as they simultaneously say “Rafe.” Referring to Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gerring).
Jada then explains that “Life has a way of bringing you together.”
The pair is asked what makes their relationship work, to which Shawn quickly acknowledges, “Definitely gotta be handcuffs,” before the two laugh and exit the video.
Fans were given an indication of the storyline’s direction when headwriters Paula Cwikly and Jeanne Marie Ford spoke with TV Insider and shared that the duo would “find their way back to each other in the wake of tragedy.”
One user shared on X, “This is the BEST news! I love Jada and Shawn; they are so good together with all that electric chemistry⚡️. I am so here for them falling in love with each other♥️.” With a second user adding, “I’m so excited!🥰 Their love story has been such a beautiful slow burn. I can’t wait to see Jada and Shawn admit their feelings for each other😍.”
Jada and Shawn’s relationship began and ended quickly in early 2025, as the two explored their romantic chemistry in the wake of the end of their respective relationships. However, due to various circumstances involving the return of Jada’s fiancé, Rafe, after his kidnapping and the switch with a lookalike doppelganger named Arnold, Jada and Shawn decided to go their separate ways.
Viewers will have to stay tuned to Days of Our Lives, streaming weekdays exclusively on Peacock, to watch the story unfold and see how Jada and Shawn interact and whether true love is on the cards for them.
