Brady and Ava's pairing on Days of Our Lives: Mixed Reactions
Ava: Nay
Better fit with Harris Michaels: Fans who prefer Ava with Harris Michaels (Steve Burton) feel the chemistry between them is much stronger. Harris’s darker, mysterious side seems to mesh better with Ava’s complicated character.
Ava’s dark past (Susan): Ava's attempt to harm Susan creates a significant barrier for some viewers, as it taints her character and makes it hard for fans to root for her in any romantic pairing.
Brady and Kristen’s bond: Many fans are still invested in Brady's connection with Kristen (Stacy Haiduk), believing that their love story is far from over. For them, Ava is just a temporary distraction and a hindrance to Brady admitting that he still has feelings for Kristen.
Brady’s baggage: Brady's emotional baggage, particularly involving Kristen and their daughter Rachel, makes it difficult for fans to see him in any healthy relationship. For some, they wish Brady would find someone without all the drama and complications.

Ava: Yay
Something new: For those tired of the constant back-and-forth with Brady and Kristen, Ava presents a fresh dynamic. While not everyone is sold on their chemistry, there’s a desire to see Brady in a different relationship for a change.
Better than Kristen: Kristen's obsessive behavior and manipulative tendencies have made her a polarizing character. Some viewers see Ava as a better choice simply because she doesn’t carry the same toxicity that Kristen does.
Rachel taking things too far: Rachel’s interference in Brady’s love life has caused a lot of frustration for fans. Some view Ava as a better option for Brady, mainly because Rachel doesn’t seem to have the same control over her father’s romantic choices when he’s with Ava.
Kristen’s Obsession with Brady
The Stefano comparison: Kristen’s relentless pursuit of Brady mirrors Stefano’s obsession with Marlena. Fans are questioning if Kristen will ever truly move on, and whether her fixation on Brady will ever subside. It certainly adds drama to the story, but it also leaves Brady in a perpetual love triangle, which many fans find tiresome.
Brady’s Struggles with Love
Toxicity of any relationship with Brady: It’s clear that for many, Brady is stuck in a toxic cycle due to his past with Kristen and his daughter Rachel. No matter who he’s paired with, there’s a constant cloud hanging over him because of these unresolved issues.
Desire for a fresh romance: There’s a segment of the fanbase that just wants to see Brady with someone new, free from the baggage of his past relationships. Whether it’s Ava or someone entirely different, fans are craving a more balanced, drama-free romance for Brady.
Conclusion
While Brady and Ava’s pairing might not have the electric chemistry some fans were hoping for, they still offer a different dynamic compared to Brady’s ongoing saga with Kristen. Ava is seen by some as a less toxic option, even if she doesn’t ignite the same level of passion. However, Brady's complicated history with Kristen and Rachel continues to overshadow his love life, and for many, it’s hard to see him in a healthy relationship until he confronts these issues.
Do you think Brady and Ava have a chance to evolve into something more compelling, or is Kristen’s shadow too large for any other relationship to stand a chance? Let us know in the comments.
