Justin Kiriakis

Justin arrived in Salem in 1987 to get in touch with the only family he had, his Uncle Victor. Immediately adjusting to the life as a ladies' man in Salem, Justin met his match with Adrienne Johnson. Later that year, the couple, despite many obstacles, married in Greece.

Adrienne became pregnant soon after, but lost the baby. The ordeal was too much for the couple to handle and Justin found himself in the arms of Angelica Deveraux, who became pregnant with his child. The fling was short-lived and Angelica was determined to keep Justin from knowing he was the father. During this time, Adrienne and Justin found a way back to each other.

Eventually, Justin and Adrienne discovered that Angelica's son, Alexander, was Justin's. Adrienne stuck by Justin and the two agreed to move out of his Uncle Victor's mansion. Angelica was moving in on Victor, knowing that it would kill Justin to have his son being raised under the Kiriakis mansion roof. Justin agreed to set up Angelica in a lavish penthouse, to keep her away from Victor. Adrienne felt Justin was slipping away, so under the advice of Victor, she faked a pregnancy. Angelica learned of Adrienne's lie and exposed the truth to Justin. Adrienne and Justin divorced shortly after.

Justin and Adrienne couldn't stay away from each other for long. They opened rival construction companies and found each other growing closer and dating again, much to the dismay of Angelica. Angelica tried to kill Adrienne. After her plot failed, she panicked and took Alexander and caught a flight out of Salem. The flight crashed and both Angelica and her son were presumed dead, even though she had managed to switch flights at the last minute. Justin and Adrienne decided to marry again, and Victor disowned his nephew because of it.

Justin and Adrienne took pity on Angelica's whacky former housekeeper J.J., who was pregnant with twins. When Adrienne and Justin were having a hard time conceiving, J.J. offered her unborn twins up for adoption. Shortly after the adoption of the twins, Adrienne became pregnant and gave birth to a healthy son, Jackson. After Jackson's birth, Justin and Adrienne made the decision to make up with Victor and start a new life with their new family in Texas.

A few years later, Justin accepted a business proposition in Dubai and uprooted the entire family to go there. But, recently, Justin has returned to Salem to help out his old friends Bo and Hope with the kidnapping of their daughter, Ciara. After successfully getting Ciara back for Bo and Hope, he decided to stick around and continue and reunite old ties in the town he once called his home. Though Justin has admitted to Hope that he is happy back home, he and Adrienne are currently experiencing marital problems that he hopes to work out.
