T-Boz as Sheila Watkins Quits Job After Kissing Mayor Carver

Things got a little heated this week on the hit, long-running NBC soap, Days of our Lives!

Whilst digging the dirt on Mayor Abe Carver‘s opponent, Jack Deveraux, Sheila Watkins makes light of the fact she almost kissed her boss.

With Abe not completely dismissing the idea, Sheila leaned in and gave Abe a quick kiss — just to reassure herself that there was absolutely no chemistry between them!

“You’re not my type and you’re old enough to be my Dad!”, Sheila jokes. “You dress like him, too.”

Just as they agree to pretend the kiss never happened, Abe’s girlfriend, Valerie Grant, returns on the scene to surprise him with her support.

Unfortunately for the two, they were being watched by Jack, and he used this friendly encounter against Abe to smear his campaign to maintain his position.

Abe yells that Jack’s allegations are baseless. He’s not having an affair with Sheila. Val defends Abe and Jack grins as he reveals the photo of Sheila kissing Abe.

Everyone gasps. Sheila calls it a fake but they go on about how dishonorable Abe is. Abe reluctantly admits the photo is real and Sheila tells Val she can explain it. Val takes off as the press hounds Abe.

He races after her while Sheila says there’s nothing between them and takes the blame for initiating the kiss.

Val and Abe have a heart-to-heart in the park. Abe explains and apologizes. She accepts but they both agree to part ways, and kiss each other goodbye.

Sheila appears just as Val leaves, and decides that she too will be leaving Salem, and quits her job as his assistant to help save his reputation and mayoral position.

Abe pleads with her to stay — he needs her input to reach his full potential. But Sheila has made up her mind. She thanks him for all he has done for her and leaves town.

This is currently Tionne’s final scene for the show, as we reported last week. I doubt this will be the last we see of the feisty Sheila Watkins. Stay tuned!

T-Boz Leaves Sheila Role In Days Of Our Lives

Days Of Our Lives actress and TLC superstar Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins is once again set to depart Salem as the sassy and outspoken ex-con, Sheila Watkins.

The sad news comes just as her character is finally finding her feet in town and has developed feelings for Mayor Abe Carver (James Reynolds).

This week, she and mayoral candidate Abe get a little frisky, but Abe’s snakey opponent Jack (Matthew Ashford) catches them in the act, and decides to use his findings to smear Abe’s reputation.

It’s for this reason that the good-hearted Sheila took it on the chin and decides to save Abe’s skin and voluntarily quits her position as his assistant and leaves Salem to give his career a better chance at surviving the scandal.

Sheila has come a long way since her arrival on the show back in 2016, when she first appeared as a bad girl prisoner who gave Hope (Kristian Alfonso) hell when they were in jail together. Sheila wasn’t keen on having a cop as a roomie and gave Hope a couple of beat downs!

She returned to our screens in 2017 to assist Bonnie Lockhart (Judi Evans) in a doppelganger plotline, assisting her convict buddy in maintaining a false life living as Adrienne Kiriakis in her mansion. Sheila posed as a laidback maid until the truth was exposed and they both fled town.

Sheila then returned in 2018, once again assisting Bonnie in another crooked scheme, bringing in Bonnie’s baby granddaughter as her own to blackmail Lucas.

In the meantime, Sheila rekindled her friendship with Eli (Lamon Archey) and eventually landed herself a job with the Mayor, thanks to Abe’s daughter Lani (Sal Stowers) who just wanted Sheila to get a job, after feeling jealous of her spending so much time with Eli.

Sheila has come and gone many times, so her departure may only be temporary. There’s no word on what the future holds for Sheila yet, but it’s nice to see that the door is being kept open for a possible return in the future.

T-Boz has always been open about her wishes to continue with her role as Sheila Watkins for the long-term in the hit television soap, and fans love her comical and witty personality, which brings a breath of fresh air to the show, so it would only make sense to bring Sheila back one day.

However, fans needn’t worry about losing their regular fix of Watkins on TV, as she has been confirmed to star in the hit WEtv series Growing Up Hip Hop: Atlanta which starts during the summer of 2019.

Eli Digs The Truth Between Sheila and Abe’s Friendship

Drama in Days of our Lives is a guarantee.

Following the last episode’s cliffhanger moment, when Abe Carver seemed to make an advance towards Sheila Watkins after thanking her for her continued support, the happy moment didn’t last for long!

Abe had second thoughts, realizing he would be crossing professional boundaries, and instead tried to throw the blame onto Sheila for making a move on him!

Just in the nick of time, Eli Grant and Lani Price turn up at the pub, witnessing the kiss that almost happened, and preventing the two from exploding into a bigger fight.

While Lani sits with Abe to explain why she is currently in possession of baby David, Eli goes to the bar with Sheila to find out the truth about her friendship with Abe.

Sheila insists that she and Abe are not friends, and tells Eli how Abe attacked her for giving him some suggestions for his campaign.

Despite this, Sheila is sure that she knows what Abe wants; a woman that will stand by his side, since his ex-girlfriend Valerie left him to pursue her career.

Will Sheila turn out to be the woman Abe needs in his life?

T-Boz as Sheila Catching Feelings For Mayor Carver in Days?

Love could be in the air in Salem this week!

Sheila Watkins listens to Abe Carver rant about Jack and Eve in the pub, thinking of Haley as some dangerous criminal. Abe is worried that Jack could win.

Abe thinks Jack is sharp and that he’ll twist his words. Sheila suggests Abe should fight back. Abe admits he compromised his integrity by allowing Ted to stay on as DA when he’s crooked.

Abe decided it was better than having a corrupt mayor. Sheila thinks Abe should bring up Jack being a rapist but Kayla’s his friend. He can’t, so Sheila suggests he play matchmaker with him and Jennifer.

Abe refuses, patronising Sheila and refers to her ideas as ‘colourful’. “So, I guess Law & Order Abe Carver doesn’t need advice from ex-con Sheila from the hood“, Sheila fumes, grabbing her bag and tries to leave.

Abe quickly jumps up to prevent Sheila from leaving the table, telling her how much he appreciates her support.

The pair share a moment gazing into each others eyes and move closer together.

Is this the sign of their friendship developing into something deeper?
