Why Is ‘Days of Our Lives’ Now on Hiatus?
Days of Our Lives has reportedly paused production after an internal investigation into allegations of misconduct against co-executive producer Albert Alarr.
Representatives for both Peacock and Corday Productions, which produces the long-running soap, confirmed the hiatus to Deadline, days after reporter Nellie Andreeva broke the news of the nine-week probe—which reportedly included interviews with 30 to 40 people, primarily women.
The original complaint, reportedly filed by a female employee, alleged that women did not receive equal pay on the show, and that a round of layoffs in March had disproportionately affected female workers.
