Fans who have been watching "Days of Our Lives" on a regular basis over the past few years know that Ben Weston and Ciara Brady's relationship hasn't been easy. In fact, the young couple faced many ups and downs, which included Ciara being presumed dead (via TV Season Spoilers) and their newborn son being kidnapped, per Celebrating The Soaps. Viewers may have also noticed that actress Victoria Konefal has been popping in and out of Salem as she dealt with scheduling conflicts that kept her from fully focusing on the soap opera.

In the past, Konefal opened up about her status on the NBC show and revealed that she's keeping her options open and exploring other acting opportunities as well. "I do have something on the horizon. A friend of mine is producing a film in the south, and he pitched it to me. I can't really talk much about the title or the storyline, but I like it. So, I think I'm gonna go ahead and take some time off and do that. I might be putting on my cowgirl hat," the actress told Soaps back in February 2022.

Now, both Ben and Ciara have left Salem and made a quick stop on "Beyond Salem" to reunite with Ciara's mother Hope Brady (Kristian Alfonso).
