The Actors Who Have Played Susan Banks On Days Of Our Lives

Writer Emma Terry

When Susan Banks was first introduced to "Days of Our Lives" viewers in 1996, it only made sense that actress Eileen Davidson play the role. Although Davidson is known for her roles on both "DOOL" and "The Young and The Restless," she has gone on to reality television, too, previously starring in the hit TV series "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" with Lisa Rinna, another former soap star (via Soaps).

While Davidson was portraying Susan's doppelganger, Kristen DiMera, in the 1990s, she also pulled double duty as both Kristen and Susan. After the drama with Susan, Kristen, Marlena, and John died down a bit, Susan got her baby back and named him Elvis after her favorite singer, per Soaps in Depth.

Later, it was discovered that the father of Susan's baby was none other than Stefano DiMera himself. Susan was beside herself upon learning the news, as Stefano had been dressed as Elvis when she met him. Following the revelation, John helped Susan pack up and move to England with baby Elvis. It was there that she met a man named Edmund P. Crumb, and the two eventually tied the knot.

Susan left Salem in 1998 with Davidson still in the role.
