Jordi Vilasuso confirms DAYS exit in heartfelt message to fans

Days of our Lives' Jordi Vilasuso (Dario Hernandez) bids Salem a fond farewell in a heartfelt message that confirms he's been let go from the NBC soap.

In an emotional and heartfelt message on social media, Days of our Lives' Jordi Vilasuso (Dario Hernandez) has confirmed that his time in Salem is coming to a close.

"Yes, it's true- my Days are numbered. I've been wanting to speak on this for awhile but out of respect and love for the show I've stayed quiet," he wrote on Instagram of having been let go from the show.

"@nbcdays has brought me so much joy! NBC, Sony, Ken Corday @gregmeng, Albert Alarr, and the entire crew who make this show possible have all been such pleasure to work for and with. Although I wish Dario would have gone in a different direction, being a part of the Hernandez family was one of the best parts of the gig thanks to @abonemartinez , @ggering, and @camilabanus. Mi familia always took me on a rollercoaster of belly hurting laughter and tears that I would look forward to whenever I got the opportunity to mix it up with them. I'm grateful to the women that escaped Dario's grasp as well.. @ari8675, @ximenaduque, and @_marcimiller_ are such beautiful actors both inside and out and always inspired me to work at a higher level."

He continues: "Lastly, the fans! You are the ones who keep this show going. I've gotten to know some of you personally and your passion for the stories and characters is infectious. Your opinions of Dario were hilarious and often mutually shared! Ha! So here's to @nbcdays ! May you have many more years to come! It's been a hell of a ride! #dool #nextchapter #lookingforward"
