Veteran actress Morgan Fairchild appeared in the role of Anjelica Deveraux on the NBC soap, Days of Our Lives, in the summer of 2017. She left the show within a few months. So where is Morgan at present? What is she up to? Read on to get the answers.

Morgan Fairchild was on Days of Our Lives for 17 episodes

Morgan’s character, Anjelica Deveraux, was brought back to the canvas on June 14, 2017, after 26 years. The role was previously portrayed by Judith Chapman from 1989 to 1991. 

In fact, the role was originated by Jane Elliot in 1987. She was replaced by Shelley Taylor Morgan in 1989 and shortly afterward, Judith took over the role. 

When Morgan was hired to play the role in 2017, the storylines revealed that Anjelica was scheming against Adrienne. However, she ended up falling prey of her own schemes. 

Here’s what happened - Morgan teamed up with Hattie Adams and Bonnie Lockhart to take revenge on Adrienne. Bonnie was Adrienne’s doppelganger but she was in prison. So Hattie took Adrienne to the prison where Bonnie was locked up and made the switch. 

Anjelica ordered Bonnie to impersonate Adrienne and break up with Lucas. She also ordered Bonnie to get back with Justin. But Bonnie did just the opposite of what was ordered to her by sleeping with Lucas instead. 

This led to an intense argument between Anjelica and Bonnie. Meanwhile, Hattie and Bonnie threatened Anjelica to turn her over to the police. They threatened her to use the binder of notes she had given to them as evidence. Ultimately, Anjelica and Bonnie had a fight over the binder, during which Angelica suffered a heart attack and died.
