Here's everything to know about Philip Kiriakis and his current heist on Days of Our Lives

Philip Kiriakis is a fictional character on the daytime soap opera Days of Our Lives. The character was introduced in 1998, initially portrayed by Shane Nicholas. Over the years, several actors have portrayed the role of Philip on the show, while John-Paul Lavoisier stepped into the role in 2015.

Philip is the son of Victor Kiriakis and Kate Roberts. He had a complex relationship with his father Victor, as the two were always in a feud over the rightful heir of Titan Industries.

The character has been in several complex love arcs as well, particularly involving Belle Black and Chloe Lane. He was married to Belle Black, but the two eventually got divorced when Philip discovered that their daughter's biological father was not him but Shawn Douglas Brady.

On the other hand, his relationship with Chloe Lane has been one of the soap opera's central storylines, and their iconic romance made them a fan-favorite couple.

In the current story arc, as Bo struggles with his sepsis condition, his half-brother Philip has decided to steal the not FDA-approved cure from Dr. Russell's lab. He has planned to seek help from an old classmate, Kevin Lambert, who works closely with Dr. Russell. Elsewhere, Philip and Xander are in a feud over company matters.

However, spoilers for the soap opera suggest that Philip and Xander will be in a fight that may lead to the former's hospitalization, later creating chaos in Salem.
