While Cody Longo was most famously known for appearing in "Days of Our Lives," the actor had many other film and TV credits. He had a brief appearance in "CSI: NY" as Tyler Josephson, he played Charlie Peterson in the TV series "Secrets and Lies," and he played Tad in the 2017 movie "The Last Movie Star," per his IMDb credits.

Unfortunately, not all of Longo's press in the last several years was positive. In November 2020, he was arrested in Tennessee on a domestic assault charge, per TMZ. He got into an argument with his wife, Stephanie Longo, and claimed that she had cheated on him; things became physical between the two. Prior to this, Longo was arrested in 2013 in Los Angeles for driving under the influence, and agreed to participate in "alcohol education classes."

Longo joins the list of sad deaths of "Days of Our Lives" stars, but since he wasn't currently acting on the show, there's no need for a character death in the soap opera. He is one of many soap opera stars who has been mourned recently, including Ben Masters, Marnie Schulenburg, and Quinn Redeker. It's certainly a great loss for that community and fan base.
