Salem's power struggle intensifies on Days of Our Lives, Thursday, May 29 episode, as drama at University Hospital and beyond reaches its highest stakes. What starts as a momentous board meeting quickly devolves into mayhem, reducing reputations to shreds and allegiances to the test. Tensions are running high as the hospital board gathers to cast ballots for new ownership. Xander and EJ DiMera both want to get their hands on the highly sought-after Versavix patent. It doesn't matter that the scandalous drug is already being given to Bo Brady (Peter Reckell). While both rivals await word, EJ might actually have the advantage. A surprise twist - Jada arrests Xander In a dramatic turn, Belle Black Brady (Martha Madison) confesses to Jada about the fight between Xander and Philip Kiriakis. With no choice, Jada makes a shocking arrest, dragging Xander away in handcuffs smack in the middle of the hospital, leaving witnesses agog. The ramifications are immediate. Julie and Maggie Kiriakis are aghast as Maggie lays bare the extent of Xander's recent lies, including the faked letter that ended up ruining his marriage to Sarah. While Xander's destiny hangs precariously in the balance, EJ and Kristen DiMera quietly bask in an upcoming power switch. In the meantime, Kristen is up to something herself. After she takes Rachel in for a checkup, she encounters Brady. Having been emotionally charged after learning about John's critical status, Kristen might be looking for closure, or maybe more.

‘Highlight of my life' — Jet Li attends youngest daughter's graduation in New York
AMERICA: The Star reported that the super famous martial artist Jet Li recently took a flight all the way to New York in the US just to be at his youngest daughter Jada's graduation. He's been keeping a bit out of the spotlight lately, but he shared his happiness on Weibo, saying how thrilled he was that all four of his daughters have now successfully finished their college degrees. Photo: Weibo/Jet Li 'Dad is at the bottom of the list, with not even a diploma,' the 62-year-old joked in the caption, before adding, 'This is the highlight of my life, so please allow me to show off!' Spending time in New York Along with his post, Li shared five pictures. Two of them were with his 22-year-old daughter, Jada, and one showed him at what looked like a graduation ceremony. It seems like he also spent some quality time with his other daughter, 25-year-old Jane, while he was in New York. They were just doing regular touristy things in New York. Hopping on the subway to get around, taking a stroll through Central Park, and of course, munching on some classic New York hot dogs.

'It was a rare half-day of leisure. I thought to myself how nice it is to enjoy such a simple and ordinary day. 'The moment I returned to the hotel, my world changed. I was blocked at the entrance. Thank you all for still liking me after all these years,' he wrote. Previous marriage and divorce Li's first wife was an actress named Huang Qiuyan, but their marriage ended in 1990. They had two kids together who are now all grown up – Si Li, who's 37, and Taimi, who's 35. Later on, in 1999, he found love again and married another actress, Nina Li Ching. They've got two kids, Jane and Jada. After his divorce from Huang, there have been speculations about a tense relationship between Li and his two older daughters, but in 2023, the actor disputed these allegations.

His most recent acting gig was in Disney's live-action Mulan, which came out in 2020. Jet Li was actually born Li Lian Jie (that's his Chinese name, 李連杰) in Beijing, China, on April 26, 1963. He's a highly acclaimed martial artist, actor, film producer, and former Wushu champion who has achieved international stardom. Li's journey into martial arts began at the young age of eight when he started training at the Beijing Wushu Academy. His talent was quickly recognised, and he went on to become a five-time gold medalist at the Chinese National Wushu Championships from 1974 to 1979.

The China-born Singaporean actor shared photos of himself with Jane and Jada, as well as a separate photo with Jada. "She is finally free to pursue her dreams after more than 10 years of hard work," Li added. "Congratulations to my youngest daughter, Jada, for graduating from college." According to various Chinese-language media outlets, all four of his daughters pursued their tertiary education in the United States. Jada graduated from Barnard College, while Jane is a Harvard University alumna. Earlier in May, Li revealed in a Weibo post that his second daughter, Taimi, is an ophthalmologist. While in New York, the actor also took the opportunity to tour the city. "My daughter accompanied me to take the subway and visit Central Park," he wrote on Weibo. "We ate some frankfurters.

Li, whose last film role was in the 2020 Hollywood live-action movie Mulan, also posted photos of himself signing autographs and posing with fans upon returning to his hotel. "Thank you for still supporting me after so many years," he wrote.
