Soap opera fans know that so much of the drama revolves around romance.
This is especially true on “Days of Our Lives.”
However, there are those characters that seem to be perpetually unlucky in love.
Fan favorites such asRafe Hernandez have had failed love lives.
Rafe has had relationships with women like Carrie Brady, Jordan Ridgeway, and Kate Roberts that went nowhere.
Brady was also previously married to Chloe Lane and Theresa Donovan.
However, those relationships also ended badly.
Unfortunately, Rafe and Brady aren’t the only Salemites unlucky in love.
Sarah Horton and Rex Brady have also had their share of troubles.
The pair actually met off-screen and away from Salem while working as doctors (viaMonsters and Critics).
They later showed up in their hometown together and announced their engagement.
Over the years, fans have watched both Rex and Sarah go through their share of dramatic relationships.
Eventually, he fell in love with Mimi Lockhart, and the two began a serious relationship.
Sadly, that romance ended after Mimi had an abortion without telling Rex.
Meanwhile, Sarah’s had her share of romantic entanglements as well.
Sadly, Eric and Sarah’s daughter, Mickey, didn’t survive.
However, the love of Sarah’s life has been Xander Kiriakis.
The duo finally tied the knot in 2022.
The couple’s indiscretion led to Mimi’s pregnancy, and she later welcomed a baby girl.
Eventually, Rex returned to Salem in hopes of mending fences with Sarah and possibly getting back together.
However, by that time Sarah had moved on.
She fell in love with both Rex’s brother, Eric Brady, as well as Xander Kiriakis.
Rex and Sarah never got their happy ending.
However, they have remained friendly, even after Sarah held Rex hostage (viaHollywood Hiccups).
Although Rex and Sarah weren’t meant to last, their relationship definitely brought some juicy drama to Salem.
