Marlena Speaks: Deidre Hall's Heartbreaking Yet Hopeful Words About Life on 'Days' Without John!
In a moment that tugged at the heartstrings of Days of Our Lives fans everywhere, Deidre Hall is opening up about what life feels like for Marlena Evans now that her beloved John Black is no longer by her side.
The legendary actress, who has portrayed Marlena for over four decades, shared a rare emotional glimpse behind the scenes, admitting that stepping onto the set without her longtime scene partner Drake Hogestyn (John) has been “like losing a limb.” Hall confessed, “We built something unshakable over the years. John and Marlena’s love story wasn’t just a part of the show — it became part of who I am.”
Yet even amid the heartbreak, Hall’s message remains one of resilience. “I carry him with me in every scene,” she said. “Marlena doesn’t stop loving John just because he’s gone. And neither do I. But she’s learning how to live, how to breathe again, on her own — and that’s a journey I think a lot of people will relate to.”
Fans will see Marlena face new challenges in upcoming episodes, navigating love, legacy, and grief. While the absence of John is deeply felt, Hall’s performance promises to honor their bond while lighting the way toward a new chapter.
“Every tear I shed onscreen is real,” Hall added. “But so is the hope.”
