Contents 1 Storylines 2 See also 3 References 4 External links Storylines Bo was born on November 5, 1962 and is the only son of Caroline Brady ( Peggy McCay ) and Victor Kiriakis ( John Aniston ). However, Bo is raised as the youngest child of Caroline and her husband Shawn Brady ( Frank Parker ) until his paternity reveal in 1985. Bo returns to Salem in 1983 and marries Hope Williams ( Kristian Alfonso ) shortly after. The couple later welcomes their son, Shawn - Douglas Brady. Bo later becomes a detective at the Salem Police Department. In 2000, Bo and Hope welcome another son, Zack. During the Salem Stalker storyline, Bo loses his mother and older brother Roman ( Josh Taylor ). He rejoins the police force to help solve the case and is forced to arrest his former sister - in - law, Dr. Marlena Evans ( Deidre Hall ). Fortunately, all the victims are discovered on a mysterious island and Bo is on the rescue team. He is also reunited with his ex-wife, Billie Reed ( Julie Pinson ). On New Year 's Day in 2006, Zack is hit by a car driven by Bo and Billie 's daughter, Chelsea ( Rachel Melvin ). To protect Chelsea, Bo hides the truth believing it would destroy his family. In 2008, Chelsea saves Bo 's life by donating part of her pancreas when his begins failing. Bo suffers a concussion and temporarily experiences psychic visions. In 2012, Bo quits the force after budget cuts and accompanies Caroline to California for Alzheimer 's treatment. Caroline eventually returns, but Bo decides to go sailing as it is a lifelong dream of his. Hope and their daughter go sailing with him for a brief vacation however all the boat scenes only include Hope and Ciara in the cabin by themselves. In late 2013 - early 2014, Hope reveals that Bo went to Europe to continue investigating the DiMeras on his own. However, as time went on and his investigation took on a wider scope ( ostensibly as part of a larger ISA mission ), so did his absence from home, and Hope. In March 2014, John Black delivered a message to Hope that Bo 's investigation had branched off into a larger, more powerful, and more dangerous criminal organization than even the DiMeras, and is working deep undercover in Europe to bring them down, and may not be back for another year or more. Bo 's situation even precludes him from contacting friends and family, and a letter to Hope is the last known contact any Salemite has had with him. Beginning September 2015, Bo is seen being held captive and tortured in a dirty prison, later revealed to be in Mexico. When Steve, with John 's help, begins to track him down, he is moved to an equally filthy hospital - looking facility. Steve, John, and Victor uncover that Bo was working with Victor to help Dr. Salinas find a cure for Caroline 's Alzheimer 's - type condition. This may have also been at the same time that he was involved in an investigation that may or may not have involved the ISA which took him to northern Europe. He was then lured by a Britta Englund - lookalike to Mexico. In November 2015, Bo starts to blackout and experience headaches, Thanks to his sister, Kayla, he undergoes testing and is diagnosed with an inoperable terminal brain tumor and does n't have long to live. In the location of their first kiss, Bo tells Hope of his condition. Bo and Hope passionately repeat their wedding vows to each other as Bo becomes extremely pale and weak. Hope told Bo that his niece Sami 's son Will was murdered last month, which he was devastated, and then, Bo loses consciousness and dies in Hope 's arms, while snow starts to fall on them.
