Days of Our Lives Comings & Goings: Christopher Sean & Colton Little Return as Paul and Andrew
Days of Our Lives is gearing up to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Deidre Hall making her debut as Marlena, who will take a walk down memory lane about her decades in Salem on Monday, June 22. Christopher Sean (Paul Narita) and Colton Little (Andrew Donovan) are both returning to the show for the special episode, reprising their roles as Marlena’s stepson and stepson-in-law.
Christopher Sean and Colton Little Return
Sean’s character, Paul, is the son of Marlena’s late husband, John Black (Drake Hogestyn). The actor began playing the role in 2014, and though he left in 2018, he has returned regularly for visits. He was last seen in November 2025, when Paul attended the dedication of the Tom Horton Free Clinic as part of DAYS‘ 60th anniversary celebration.
“It’s always a blast coming back,” Sean told Soap Opera Digest in 2024. “DAYS is my first home. It gave me my first opportunity in Hollywood and a contract role.” Sean noted that being asked back to the show was always meaningful to him, saying, “To continue to be part of such an ongoing legacy is one of the coolest merits I can receive in Hollywood.”
While Andrew was born to legacy supercouple Shane and Kim back in 1986, Little only began playing him in 2022. He first appeared on the Peacock-streaming DAYS spinoff Beyond Salem: Chapter 2, then moved over to the main show in 2023.
Paul and Andrew’s visit roughly coincides not only with DAYS’s tribute to Hall’s remarkable career as Marlena, but with the on-screen lovebirds’ first wedding anniversary. They said, “I do” on June 24, 2025.
2025 was also a significant year in the love life of Little, who went public with his romance with General Hospital‘s Adrian Anchondo (ex-Marco Rios) in December.
