“Days of Our Lives” is about family at its core.
And one of the show’s most beloved families is that of the Carvers.
Of course, Abe is the most prominent member of the Carver clan.
He was introduced to viewers in 1981 and has been an important part of the show ever since.
Abe’s parents were revealed to be Benjamin and Rita Carver, who are both deceased.
Jonah Carver popped up in Salem in 1987 as a young medical student.
However, he sought justice as a vigilante called The Pacifier.
Jonah found himself falling in love with Abe’s wife Lexie Carver and eventually opted to leave Salem behind.
Abe’s other brother, Theo Carver, came to Salem in 1995.
Abe later went on to become the police commissioner and mayor of Salem in his quest.
However, there was drama surrounding Theo’s birth.
At the time, Lexie had cheated on Abe with Nicole Walker’s brother, Brandon.
For a while, Lexie didn’t know if Abe or Brandon was the father of her child.
However, a DNA test later proved that Abe had fathered Lexie’s son.
In 2007, another member of the Carver crew came to Salem.
Jett Carver, the son of Abe’s late brother Theo, arrived in town.
However, Jeremy was using the airline as a way to transport illegal items for the DiMera family.
Abe also has some stepchildren and grandchildren that he holds very dear to his heart.
Lani explained that she was the daughter of Abe’s former lover, Tamara Price.
Abe was stunned, but very happy to welcome Lani into his family.
Lani was crushed by the news, but she and Paulina eventually mended fences.
In addition, Abe also earned another stepdaughter, Chanel DuPree, through the marriage.
