Camila Banus Had to Deal With Behind-the-Scenes 'Nightmare' at Days of Our Lives
The beloved daytime soap opera Days of Our Lives has been entertaining audiences for over half a century with its gripping storylines and captivating characters.
But while viewers see the polished and glamorous side of the show, the behind-the-scenes reality can be a completely different story. In fact, the actors who bring the characters to life sometimes face numerous challenges that can turn into downright nightmares.
And that's exactly the case with actress Camila Banus, who portrays Gabi Hernandez on the series, as she recently opened up about a tricky experience she had to deal with on set.
Gabi Hernandez was first introduced to the show in 2009 as the younger sister of Arianna Hernandez. The character is portrayed as a passionate, impulsive, and determined young woman who has faced many challenges throughout her time on the show.

She is also known for her fiery personality and ability to speak her mind, often leading to confrontations with other characters. And one such instance was during the episode where Gabi delivered a knockout blow to Stefan by striking him over the head with a showpiece.
However, as thrilling as that episode was, not many people know that Banus encountered a challenge while filming the scene. As it turns out, she experienced a massive wardrobe malfunction.
When a fan shared a photo of the scene in question on social media, the actress felt prompted to divulge some behind-the-scenes details on her Instagram stories and took the opportunity to explain the biggest obstacle she had to deal with.
"This dress was a nightmare with wardrobe – my bra kept showing in the small middle circle," Banus revealed.
She went on to explain how she attempted to manage the situation by wearing a large fur coat throughout the scenes as much as possible.
To provide a clear example, the star followed up with a zoomed-in glimpse of the outfit, with an arrow pointing to the small circle in the middle of the dress where her bra, indeed, made an unwelcome appearance – despite her best efforts to hide it.
Regardless of the setback, Banus remained professional and took control of the situation with composure, delivering a convincing performance that left an impact on the audience.
Her ability to handle the unexpected and do her job is a testament to her dedication and talent as an actress, no doubt.
