She has been committed to her relationship with Ben no matter what anyone has told her. However, following the recent news of his role in Gabi’s kidnapping, Ciara may seek advice on her relationship from the only other woman who can reveal what it’s like to be with him on the Tuesday, Jan. 8 episode of “Days of Our Lives.”

Ciara (Victoria Konefal) has been determined to prove her relationship with Ben (Robert Scott Wilson) could work, even though everyone around her has been determined to prove he is still the same man he was when he was the Red Necktie Killer. Though Hope’s (Kristian Alfonso) attempts to get Ciara away from him by trying to prove he set the fire that nearly killed her on the NBC soap have all failed, new information showed up which helped her place doubts in her daughter’s mind.

After learning she wouldn’t be going to jail for the crimes she committed against Abigail (Kate Mansi) and Stefan (Tyler Christopher), Gabi (Camila Banus) revealed that Ben had kidnapped her so that she could be tortured by Stefan. Hope immediately went to Ciara with that news, and now, she has told her boyfriend she doesn’t want him working for the evil DiMera anymore. However, that is something he refuses to stop doing because it was the only job he could get in Salem.

Now, as Ciara begins to wonder if her relationship really can work out, she will seek advice from Abigail, who is the only person that give her a first-hand account of what the experience of dating Ben is like. She will likely warn Ciara to stay away from him, because even if he isn’t the same man he was a few years ago, Abigail will still believe he can be very dangerous, and she won’t want Ciara to fall for the same act she did.

With that information in mind, Ciara could find herself torn on what her future holds—and the role Ben will have in it.

“Days of Our Lives” airs weekdays on NBC.
