"Days of Our Lives" spoilers and recent casting news reveal that actress Kate Mansi may soon be leaving her role as Abigail Deveraux from the NBC soap opera. Will her role be recast or does this mean a bleak future for Chad and Abigail aka 'Chabby?'

Warning: Spoilers ahead! Read on to learn more about the details.

"Days of Our Lives" cast news and rumors hint on Kate Mansi's departure from the NBC soap. Rumors surrounding her departure have been going on for a while now, as Celeb Dirty Laundry reported on a previous blind item about a certain actress leaving the series.

The publication noted that Mansi's departure seemed to be from her own will and it was not imposed by the writers or producers of the show. Mansi's departure, however, has got a lot of DOOL fans and viewers worried about the show's future; specifically that of Chad and Abigail's relationship.

As "Days" spoilers from She Knows Soaps reveal, Chad will snap out of his brainwashed state after holding Thomas in his arms. Several DOOL rumors have been hinting that Chad will soon propose to Abigail, which definitely made a lot of Chabby fans excited for their future.

However, with this recent casting news surrounding Mansi's departure from the show, the aforementioned publication noted on the possibility that Mansi's character may be recast, Abigail may be placed in a mental health facility or her character may die.

Most DOOL fans are not in favor of the notion that Abigail may die, as many viewers are already crying out from seeing one character die after another. It may be a wise choice if the NBC soap opts to just recast the role and give Chad and Abigail a happy future together.

"Days of Our Lives" airs Monday to Friday on NBC.
