Let's make this birthday one to remember.

42 years old (Born on June 20, 1983)

Happy Birthday, Tika Sumpter! From your legendary start on "Days of Our Lives," you've been making us say, "Who knew soap operas could be this addictively entertaining?" Your incredible blend of elegance and fierce talent continues to elevate every role you play—whether you're captivating audiences in heartfelt dramas or dazzling us with comedy.

Whether stealing the spotlight as Michelle Obama in “Southside With You” or keeping fans laughing (and gasping) alongside Sonic the Hedgehog's hilarious antics, your career truly sparkles. May your special day bring more cake than drama—and fewer surprise plot twists than Salem usually offers! Cheers!
