Gabrielle Haugh Joins 'Days of our Lives' as New Jade Michaels

Gabrielle Haugh will be taking over the role of Jade on Days next week.

A new face will soon be playing the role of Jade Michaels on NBC soap opera Days of our Lives. Actress and model Gabrielle Haugh has replaced Paige Searcy as Jade, and is scheduled to make her debut on January 17.

According to Soap Opera Digest, Searcy walked away from the role of her own accord. She recently appeared in a Lifetime movie, Mommy, I Didn't Do It, with another Days alum, Jen Lilley (ex-Theresa).

Since the Searcy exit rumors began, viewers have wondered whether or not the character would also be leaving the canvas. Apparently, at least for now, Days has a story planned that includes Jade.

Haugh only has a handful of credits on her IMDb page, but they include an upcoming film, The Long Home, with General Hospital guest star James Franco (ex-Franco).
