Robin Jacobs is a fictional character from NBC's daytime drama, Days of Our Lives. She was portrayed by Derya Ruggles from 1985 to 1987 and, briefly, again in 1989. Robin Jacobs was played by Derya Ruggles, who was reportedly fired from the set because she could not get along with her co-stars. Derya has reported to have a very arrogant, conceited personality. Derya was not liked by her Hollywood peers. After Hollywood, Derya went on to co-star on the show "Seattle Today" where she was shortly let go for her lack of ability to get along with her coworkers.

Fictional character history

Robin was a surgeon at University Hospital in Salem. She fell in love with Dr. Mike Horton, but they couldn't be together because she was Jewish. She married Mitch Kaufman, a Jew, but after finding out she was carrying Mike's child, she ended the marriage. In 1987, she left town when she thought Mike would never convert to Judaism.

In 1989, she returned for a few days to introduce Mike to his son, Jeremy.
