Lexie Carver

Lexie Carver is a fictional character on the NBC soap opera, Days of Our Lives, created by head writer Leah Laiman.

In April 2012, Jones confirmed in an interview with TV Guide's Michael Logan that she would vacate the role of Lexie Carver after 20 years and would retire into a simpler life, revealing that she is not happy in acting.

Lexie also becomes good friends with Diana Colville, the fiancée of John Black (who was then believed to be Roman Brady).

In September 1992, Lexie is believed to be pregnant, but it is revealed that the test was a false positive, devastating the couple.

However, it is revealed that Abe is alive and is trapped on Melaswen ("New Salem" backwards) Island, part of a plot conducted by André.

In 2007, Lexie is kidnapped by André because she claims she witnessed her half-brother EJ DiMera shooting John Black.

Lexie is later discovered in the tunnels of Salem during a Bo and Hope investigation into the long running Brady-DiMera feud.

Upon her return, Lexie reunites with her husband and is reinstated by the Salem University Hospital board and eventually becomes Chief of Staff.

In 2010, it is believed that Dr. Carly Manning would take on the position of Chief of Staff when Lexie and Abe consider leaving Salem.

After initial tests run by Daniel Jonas, it's discovered she has brain tumors - as a result of being held captive in the toxic fume-filled tunnels under the DiMera mansion when André had kidnapped her a few years prior.

Unable to fly, Abe, with the help of EJ and Cameron, turn the Horton Town Square into a Paris-like setting.

In 2020, Candace Young and Charlie Mason from Soaps She Knows put Lexie on their list of Daytime's Most Important African-American Characters, commenting that "We all thought that Renee Jones' good doctor was the Rx for a nice, simple, happy life for our beloved Abe — until we along with she discovered that for decades, she should've been sending Father's Day cards to Stefano DiMera, aka the biggest Big Bad soapdom's ever known.
