Next Week on Beyond the Gates: October 19-23, 2026
Dani’s Big Interview Reels in Guest Star Tabitha Brown

Dani (Karla Mosley) steps back into the spotlight when she sits down with celebrity interviewer Tia Allen. “We are going to tell you a story with a little help from your family and friends,” Allen assures the former supermodel. Food influencer, Emmy-winning TV personality, and best-selling author Tabitha Brown guest stars as Allen. And she’s not the only guest star crossing paths with Fairmont Crest’s upper crust.
Real Housewives of Atlanta Alum Kandi Burruss Joins the Fun
Music icon, Broadway producer, business mogul, and reality TV vet Kandi Burruss will play Kalista Kilroy, who seems to know the skinny on a certain high-powered attorney. “Well, if it isn’t Bill Hamilton,” she says. Bill (Timon Kyle Durrett) seems shocked to see her. “What the hell are you doing here, Kalista?”

The interview/retrospective of Dani’s life turns chaotic, of course. “Well, he’s a…awful husband,” Kalista spills as she portrays Bill in a way he doesn’t appreciate. “Stop!” Bill exclaims while standing next to the camera. “No,” Dani suddenly says. “Why the hell would you do that?” Bill pleads. Kalista may just be a pot-stirrer. But who is she to Bill and Dani?
Anita Counsels Nicole About Ted
Ted (Keith D. Robinson) and Shanice (Ernestine Johnsnon) are engaged. Nicole (Daphnée Duplaix) was immediately upset about it. It was a reaction that she wasn’t expecting. Could she still be in her feelings about Ted getting remarried? “If some part of you still wants Ted, you need to listen,” Anita (Tamara Tunie) tells her eldest daughter.
From the Unexpected to the… Expecting?
We’ve been wondering what would keep Hayley (Marquita Goings) in the DMV. Per her deal with Bill, she is supposed to collect her money, exit stage right, and get out of town. But she’s still there.
And then Leslie (Trisha Mann-Grant) unleashes some devastating words on Hayley, according to the weekly teasers. “Are you saying I’m gaining weight?” Hayley asks. Cut to Hayley getting nauseous and running to the bathroom at the restaurant. Is Hayley pregnant?
Heather Strikes Again…
Dani, Vanessa (Lauren Buglioli), and Heather (Ashley Jones) are sitting at Dani’s table at the country club. “I don’t think I could let my ex flaunt his new woman in front of me every day,” she says before we see her play with another knife, and she seemingly stabs Dani, which is most likely a daydream/hallucination.
Not being able to be with Andre (Sean Freeman) is really affecting Heather, right? RIGHT?
