This has to do with his connection with the Dupree family, despite being no longer married to Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley).

Hayley is desperate to be the focal point in her husband’s life; however, as she doesn’t fully know the truth about his history with his ex-wife’s family, she’ll never understand the reason why he might be forever connected to them. Will Hayley ever be brought into the loop?

Derek Baldwin’s Honesty

Speaking of truth, Beyond the Gates spoilers for Friday, August 1, indicate that Derek will be honest with Ashley Morgan (Jen Jacob), even if “the truth hurts”.

Is this about their breakup? Will he say something about being happier without her?

Derek and Ashley made a cute couple, but after they moved in together, things fizzled fast.

Derek has since been dating Shanice Johnson (Ernestine Johnson), and Ashley has been flirting with the idea of dating Andre Richardson (Sean Freeman).

Sparks have flown with both pseudo couples, so Derek may remind Ashley that, as much as they care for each other, they are better off apart.
