Beyond the Gates spoilers: Dani’s change of heart rattles Fairmont Crest?

Since Beyond the Gates first debuted in February, Dani (Karla Mosley) has emerged as one of the more fiery personalities who tends to shift the moods for the other players on the show’s canvas.

Case in point, Dani completely shook Fairmont Crest to its core when she appeared at Bill (Timon Kyle Durrett) and Hayley’s (Marquita Goings) wedding with a gun in hand. While we don’t necessarily anticipate Dani doing a wild follow-up to that extreme in the near future, we do believe she is about to make a bold decision.

What decision, you ask? Well, while we think it will again involve matters of the heart, this time we have a hunch it will be about Andre (Sean Freeman) instead of her ex-husband.

For months now, Dani and Andre have been entangled in a steamy romance, perhaps the hottest on the show. However, despite Andre’s attempts to make them something more than bedroom buddies, Dani has pumped the brakes at every turn, afraid to be hurt again. Plus, she still has love for Bill.

Dani’s hesitation has naturally pushed Andre into the arms of newly single Ashley (Jen Jacob). Although Andre is dating Ashley now, he finds himself still having romps in the hay with Dani, most recently agreeing to shag in the episode that aired on August 4.

With all of that being said, and with more of the Duprees now knowing about Dani and Andre, Dani showing some jealousy toward Ashley after catching Ashley and Andre on a date and Dani set to receive a wake-up call from Pam (Cady McClain), we have to consider Dani is about to throw down the metaphorical gauntlet. We suspect Dani may throw caution to the wind and finally tell Andre she wants to be with him.

Unfortunately for Dani, we don’t see her romantic rival Ashley just slinking away. Andre has had a connection with Ashley since the show’s premiere, but he didn’t pursue anything to respect her relationship with Derek (Ben Gavin). But now that she’s single, he’s planning dates for her and hoping for more. Additionally, Ashley seems rather content with pursuing things with Andre. So, how does Dani clear the path for herself to make #Dandre official?

If we had to guess, Dani may start to play matchmaker for Ashley. We wouldn’t be surprised if Dani launched a plot to rekindle things between Derek and Ashley. The two recently shared a sweet moment, so Dani pushing Derek and Ashley back together may not actually be too difficult. However, if she’s caught manipulating matters of the heart, she may face the wrath of Ashley, Derek and maybe even Andre.

New episodes of Beyond the Gates air weekdays on CBS and become available to stream the day after on Paramount Plus.
