Curious if Jada and Shawn are heading toward romance on Days of Our Lives? The pair have shared emotional moments and undeniable chemistry, especially after Jada’s breakup with Rafe and Shawn’s own heartbreak over Belle. Fans have noticed the growing closeness between the two, raising questions about what’s next.
Here’s what the actors have said—and how recent scenes hint at something more than friendship.
Will Jada and Shawn start a relationship in Days of Our Lives?
Jada and Shawn have not officially started a romantic relationship on Days of Our Lives, but the storyline hints at growing emotional intimacy between the two characters.
In a recent Soaps interview, Elia Cantu, who plays Jada, discussed their dynamic, noting that their initial bond formed quickly due to shared trauma. “You know, with him with what was going through with Belle, what she was going through [with Rafe/Arnold]… You’re very vulnerable,” Cantu said.
Although Jada initially stepped back after learning the truth about Rafe, she later admitted her night with Shawn. Rafe misinterpreted this and assumed an ongoing affair, leading him to sleep with Sami. Meanwhile, Shawn maintained a supportive role, even while harboring feelings for Jada.
Following her split from Rafe and with the PI temporarily out of town, Jada began offering Shawn emotional support as he grappled with the potential loss of his father.
When asked if Jada and Shawn could become a real couple, Cantu said, “I think they have a lot in common… the chemistry is great!” She credited Brandon Beemer’s performance, saying, “It’s easy when you have a partner like that… that can come across” on screen. She specifically praised their darts scene, calling it “playful and so fun.”
Despite their strong connection, the show has not confirmed a romantic relationship between Jada and Shawn. The storyline continues to develop, with unresolved issues involving Rafe and Belle still influencing their paths. For now, Jada and Shawn share emotional support and show signs of potential romance.
