I can exclusively break the news that Days of Our Lives soap stars will be visiting South Africa - Galen Gering, Arianne Zucker and Drake Hogestyn, better known to million of viewers as Rafe Hernandez, Nicole Walker and John Black - will be visiting South Africa soon to meet South Africans fans.
I can reveal that Galen Gering, Arianne Zucker and Drake Hogestyn who are seen on weekdays on the American soap on SABC3 on 17:30 (with a next-day repeat on SABC2) will be at Sandton City in Johannesburg at 12:00 on Wednesday 31 October, and at Canal Walk in Cape Town on Friday 2 November at 12:00.
I can further reveal that all three of the American soap stars will touch down in South Africa on 28 October as the guests of SABC3 and that all three of them are greatly looking forward to visiting South Africa during spring.
Galen Gering plays the handsome FBI agent, Rafe; while viewers know Arianne Zucker as the unlucky-in-love gold-digger Nicole. Drake Hogestyn has been in the soap for decades as the enigmatic John Black and Marlena's on-again, off again lover (and the one who saved her countless times, including once from dwarfs in a cellar).
"Days of Our Lives continues to be one of television's most iconic shows," says Risuna Mayimele, SABC3's marketing manager. "SABC3 is delighted to be bringing three of the stars from the show to South Africa to meet their fans. This television powerhouse is a top ratings winner worldwide and South Africa is no exception."
