Nine months after the death of John Aniston, the fate of his Days Of Our Lives character, Victor Kiriakis, has been revealed on the daytime drama.
While Aniston’s final episode aired on December 26, 2022, his character’s fate had been left up in the air, but closure came in Wednesday’s episode in which it was revealed Victor had died in a plane crash. Hints to his fate began last week when Justin learned that his plane from a stay in Greece had lost contact with air traffic control, according to TVLine. While his wife Maggie had held out hope that he would be found alive, John, who had received updates from his contacts at Isa, learned that Victor’s body had been recovered by the coast guard. As Maggie sobbed, the camera panned to a photograph of Victor, inscribed with the words “In loving memory of John Aniston”.

Jennifer Aniston half-brother Aj Aniston is continuing to keep a low profile after the death of their father John last month. Jennifer paid tribute to him in a touching social media post.
The Friends actress has two half-siblings. Jennifer’s late mom, Nancy Dow, shared John III with her first husband Jack Melick in 1959. Her father John welcomed Alexander “Aj” Anniston during his marriage to Sherry Rooney in 1989.
