Richardson Vs. Richardson

Beyond the Gates spoilers for Thursday, January 1, reveal that Kat and Martin will get the news about their grandmother, Anita Dupree (Tamara Tunie), via their mom, Nicole Dupree (Daphnee Duplaix).

While the siblings should rally together, something sparks a disagreement between the two. Here’s hoping if they do fight, it’s not in front of Nicole – this is the last thing she needs to see.

Hayley Hamilton Is Not Happy …

Across town, Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) will insist on talking to Bill Hamilton (Timon Durrett); however, this will rub Hayley the wrong way. Unfortunately, Hayley won’t understand the dire and urgent news Dani must tell Bill, so she’ll be annoyed by the interruption during the holidays.

Especially considering it’s from Dani. Still, BTG weekly spoilers suggest that Dani will tell Bill what’s going on with Anita, so how will this affect his “marriage” to Hayley? Bill and Dani could bond over this situation, thanks to their history.

Hamilton Sisters Rocked

Finally, Beyond the Gates spoilers for Thursday indicate that Chelsea and Naomi will go to visit their grandparents, but the entire thing will take a shocking turn for the sisters.

Their visit was likely a weekly catch-up, but Anita and Vernon Dupree (Clifton Davis) are sure to tell them what is going on with Anita.

It looks like Thursday’s show will be an emotional one, so fans better have a box (or two) of tissues as they watch.
