DAYS Spoilers July 30: Gabi Gives Philip the Best News of His Life

Days of our Lives corporate wars are heating up again on Thursday, as are parent wars. According to spoilers for July 30, 2026, Gabi has a surprise for the Kiriakis brothers and Alex and Joy are at a stalemate.

The Deal's Back On

Now that Gabi (Cherie Jimenez) thinks she knows who stole her designs and created those knock-off purses, Gabi decides to let Philip (John-Paul Lavoisier) and Xander (Paul Telfer) off the hook. Ari's (Vico Escorcia) explanation about leaving her prototype purse in the break room at DiMera makes sense. Someone must have seen it and created the knock-offs, so that means she can feel comfortable giving the money to Titan.

Gabi realizes that Philip was right. She is always jumping to conclusions and burns too many bridges. Philip and Alex (Robert Scott Wilson) are overjoyed to hear that Gabi is willing to use her inheritance from Stefan (Brandon Barash) to bail them out. EJ (Daniel Feuerriegel) really has them between a rock and a hard place with that loan, so this news couldn't come at a better time. It also prompts Philip to grab Gabi and kiss her.

With Gabi angry that DiMera is selling cheap copies of Gabi Chic purses, will she offer to team up with Titan to help bring EJ down? With Philip so happy with Gabi, anything can happen.

A Stalemate

Alex and Joy (AlexAnn Hopkins) thought they had everything solved when it comes to Kelsey, but then Joy balked when it came to signing the final paperwork. She is adamant that Alex will not get custody of Kelsey if anything were to happen to her as long as Stephanie (Abigail Klein) is in the picture.

Considering that Stephanie is Alex's wife, he is not about to agree to those terms. Alex assures Stephanie that he will fight Joy on this one because she is being unreasonable. She can't expect him to divorce Stephanie just so he can take care of his own child.

Meanwhile, Joy knows she is going to need a lawyer of her own now. This arrangement with Alex won't be as simple as she had hoped due to the Stephanie aspect of it all. What advice will Belle (Martha Madison) give Joy? Should the district attorney even be handling another family case?

Is Joy being unreasonable? Should Gabi and Philip get back together? Sound off in the comments.
