Doug Williams is a fictional character on the American soap opera Days
of Our Lives. He has been portrayed by Bill Hayes since 1970. Since

notably airing during the holiday seasons.Born Brent Douglas, he later
changed his name to Doug Williams. He is the half-brother of Byron
Carmichael. He is the father of Hope Williams and Douglas LeClair. He
is the husband of Julie Williams, whom he has married three times.
Doug is also the ex-husband of Kim Douglas and Lee DuMonde and the
widower of Addie Horton.In 1970, Bill Horton met a curious character
while in prison for his involvement in Kitty Horton's death. Bill's
cellmate, Brent Douglas, was different from the rest of the earthy
prison population, though his first words to Bill were hardly
friendly: "If you touch my bunk, I'll kill you." He was a singer/con
man who was actually intelligent. He and Bill became fast friends in
prison despite their rocky start. While in the big house, Brent and
Bill had long conversations about Bill's hometown, Salem, and its
residents. During one of these talks, Bill innocently mentioned the
fact that Susan Martin had inherited $250,000 from her late husband
David. This large sum of money sparked Brent's interest, and he made a
mental note of it. When Bill left the prison, he told Brent to stop by
Salem anytime. When Brent was released, that's exactly what he did.
Except for one thing: he came to Salem using the name Doug Williams.As
soon as Doug arrived in Salem, he looked up Susan. He tried to charm
her, but she didn't fall for it. She liked Scott Banning too much to
be entranced by Doug's flirtations. However, Susan did make Doug a
proposition: she would pay Doug to have an affair with Julie Banning
in order to win Scott back from Julie. Doug agreed and began charming
Julie. What Doug never counted on was falling in love with Julie.
After some time passed, Susan told Doug that she couldn't go through
with their agreement any longer. It was too lateâ€"Doug and Julie had
fallen for each other.
