Liam walked into Salem with a criminal record on his shoulder on Days of Our Lives. Fans are wondering, however, if there is more to him than meets the eye. There is a new theory flying online that draws a clue from his last name, Selejko. It suggests that he is the son of 1980s supervixen Ivy Selejko and is connected to a much older Salem storyline.

How Liam could be the son of former Days of Our Lives villain Ivy Selejko

The fan theory that Liam, on Days of Our Lives, is the son of Ivy Selejko stems from the fact that the last name is pretty uncommon in town. The place is packed with Hortons and Bradys. Thus, fans are putting the pieces together, trying to understand why the show’s creators have chosen that name in the first place.

The longtime DOOL watchers will remember who Ivy Selejko was. She used to be a manipulative figure who tangled with Pete Jannings and Melissa Anderson. She left Salen in 1987 with her son named Charles Peter Jannings. This family thread has not been updated on the screen in decades now. Thus, Liam’s last name is making fans curious if this fresh tie to Ivy could be a connection.

Also, fans feel like there are a few plotlines that validate this theory. It is seen that Liam has arrived on Days of Our Lives as Theo’s former bully. Abe is also currently mentoring him due to a grand theft auto plea deal.

The theory suggests several ways the pieces could fit together. They think that Liam could be Charles Peter Jannings using his mother’s last name. Another theory says that he could be a relative who adopted the Selejko name for personal reasons.

The other few details that support the possibility are Ivy’s history of scheming and loyalties that shift for personal gain, which could explain a younger Selejko with a criminal past. Thus, a Selejko family reunion feels quite possible to fans.
