In the Days February Sweeps article and SOD casting, they said Aketra "Keke" Sevillian is playing Jada Hunter's younger sister Talia Hunter, also daughter of Marcus. Talia has a medical degree, but applies for a job at the bakery. There is a small mystery about this.

 


In her IG post dated Oct. 24, Aketra "Keke" Sevillian said she'd just completed a month of filming at "a show". This post contains a batch of pics at the Days studio:

I love the idea of Jada as Marcus' daughter, but I hate how bland they've written her.  As discussed on another thread a couple of months ago, the show didn't have Lani anymore so they cast another Black female cop and then made her Marcus' daughter as a way to tie her to the canvas.  But it was "checking the boxes" casting with no character development. Such a shame because Marcus was a great character and Elia Cantu can act.

LOL, I never heard anything like that.

This is what Ron said:

Jada and Rafe will want to date each other but a new city regulation prevents the city employees from dating their superiors.

Unrelatedly, Talia has some sort of medical degree but, for a reason not yet explained, she applies for Allie's old job at Chanel's bakery.  There's a small mystery about her.

Honestly, at times it seems like they even style Elia like Saleisha and she kind of just comes off as a recast. It's a shame because I feel DAYS really needs more people that aren't related to everyone on the canvas; this sister business just makes me wonder if they're going to write Chanel off lol

    • I'm not sure it's as unpopular as you think.  I just think the show knew they were in a bind, and needed a proven couple for the viewers to invest in. Trying to reunite Vanessa and Ross had just failed in 87. I don't think Ed and Holly's affair was well received, as Simon and Garrett had a brother/sister chemistry. Enter Billy and Vanessa, who give you history and an out not to try and do a Josh/Reva/Billy triangle, which would've really wrecked the relationship between Josh and Billy. I'd have been ok with trying Vanessa/Ross again, and doing a Vanessa/Ross/Holly/Billy quad for a while. I hated Nadine. HATED. She had to be the most insufferable also-ran before ATWT's Julia Lindsay.
    • GROSS. Michael Swan was hot back in his ATWT days. Now he's 76 and WAY past his hot years.    
    • Since she kidnapped, locked up and tried to kill her father's wife I'd say that is still a pretty big deal
    • I'm good with the gushing, too. There aren't many soap icons like John Black, and that's important to celebrate and remember. And yes, life does go on for other characters, but as they say, timing is everything. Going sky diving the day before the funeral? And during a week of shows that were so powerful emotionally? No.    
    • No. There might have been a slight pause for dramatic effect after his "death," but pretty soon after they showed him in France getting plastic surgery and getting involved with his doctor, then planning with her to bring Christina to France. (She thought he had good reason to do it; she wasn't a bad person or anything). Now that I think of it, there must have been some kind of pause before that, during the 70s. Rita was accused of killing a private patient for an inheritance when she lived in Texas. Part of the backstory was that Roger had been there, too. Not sure exactly when or how long that was.
    • I've already stated that I don't like Doug being written as this meek and submissive. It was so lame watching him leave her like that. Vanessa can divorce him, but she then needs to get her thot ass into therapy. She's not only having sex with every guy she runs into, but is now having  sex with a skeevy perv on a poker table. I'm going to give the BTG some credit here. For months, many on this board were delighting in the Vanessa/Joey flirting and what they saw as chemistry. I think we're now seeing what the writers always intended -- that Joey is a disgusting POS wannabe mobster.
    • John Black actually was the ultimate good guy soap hero. So I don’t mind the town gushing over him. It’s deserved.
