And one character that might be a bit of a mystery to fans is Max Brady.
However, both Max and Frankie later left town, leaving fans wondering where they were for many years.
In 2005, Max popped back up much to the surprise of longtime viewers.
Max himself was a racecar driver and found himself happy to be back home after meeting Chelsea Brady.
Chelsea hid the truth, and Max helped her.
Max believed that Chelsea was just too immature for him, and the pair split.
Max also became enamored with Stephanie Johnson, the daughter of his adoptive sister, Kayla Brady.
The two shared many common interests, including their love for racing cars.
Max then had a bring fling with Mimi Lockhart and even developed feelings for Abigail Deveraux.
Max’s failed attempts at love led him to focus on his career.
He opened a garage in Salem and began to grow a successful business.
Max confronted Trent and learned that he had a half-sister named Melanie.
Max searched for his sister, and eventually found her living in France.
Max urged Melanie to come to Salem with him.
Shortly after, Trent was murdered and Max and Melanie were the main suspects.
However, they were later cleared of any wrongdoing.
Max eventually found himself reuniting with Chelsea, and the duo got serious.
“Days of Our Lives” fans haven’t seen Max or Chelsea since they left Salem for London.
