Speaking with Soap Opera Digest, Nichols opened up about his run as a character who started as a sketchy villain with a vengeance against Bo (Peter Reckell). Forty years later, so much has happened with Steve, but one thing has stayed consistent. His patch.
“I was always against losing the patch. It is his signature, both physically and psychologically. Wearing the patch is one of the reasons I was excited about taking the job, because I knew what an indelible signature it would be for the character,” he shared with SOD.
“The patch has always been central to the psychology of the character. From the early days of hatred towards Bo for doing this to him [Steve lost his eye in a bar fight with his future brother-in-law], and resentment toward the world, believing that he is a freak and could never have a normal, happy life. Then later Kayla shows him in the moment she removes the patch to clean his wounds that he is not a freak and, as Patch says, gazing into the mirror when she is gone, 'She didn’t even flinch.' It was the beginning of Kayla teaching Steve to start believing in himself,” Nichols expressed.

The feeling is mutual, too. As Parade reported, Evans shared an emotional message to Nichols on his milestone anniversary, celebrating “the ride” they have been on all these years. They are sadly one of the last super couples still on Days of Our Lives, and are still together.
Days of Our Lives airs weekdays on Peacock.
