Victor Kiriakis is one of the most beloved characters to ever appear on “Days of Our Lives.”
Born in Greece, Victor was introduced as a longtime friend of the Brady family.
However, it was soon clear to fans that Victor wasn’t as wholesome and moral as the Bradys.
Of course, Victor has captured attention with his many romances as well.
However, “Days of Our Lives” knows that he is also very family oriented.
After Justin moved to Salem, Victor was happy to welcome him into his home and business.
However, one thing that Victor didn’t approve of was Justin’s choice of romantic partners.
Victor tried everything to break up the couple, even secretly drugging Justin to make him impotent.
Eventually, Victor got on board with the relationship and even attended their wedding in Greece.
However, he never stopped prying on their marriage.
However, Bo didn’t want a relationship and his behavior eventually led Victor to disown him completely.
Victor even went as far as to fall for Bo’s love interest Carly Manning.
Just before the couple’s wedding, Bo wrote a letter to Carly to confess his love.
However, Victor found it first and got rid of it.
Instead of backing away, Victor plotted to have Bo killed in an elevator accident (viaSoaps.com).
Eventually, the pair did make amends and went on to have a great relationship.
Victor met Vivian and the two struck up a love connection.
However, Victor eventually set his sights on Kate Roberts, and Vivian was left out in the cold.
When Victor and Kate were trying to conceive they decided to try in vitro fertilization.
Vivian tried to kill Kate several times over the years by sabotaging her airplane to crash and shooting her.
She even buried her alive in hopes of getting rid of her for good.
However, Kate was eventually saved and the duo’s insane feud still goes strong.
When Victor began feuding withhis then-wife, Nicole Walker, things took a deadly turn for the character.
Victor wanted Nicole out of his life and Salem.
He offered her $100,000 to leave town, but she refused.
Nicole panicked and enlisted the help of Jan Spears to help her with the situation.
Jan later snuck up on Victor while he was in the bathtub and electrocuted him.
Victor returned to Salem with the other victims, and of course, Nicole was stunned.
The storyline impacted several Salemites, but none more than Maggie and Sarah.
For better or worse, Victor has been the center of so many huge moments on the soap opera.
