3 major developments to expect on Beyond The Gates from April 7, 2025, to April 11, 2025
1) Consequences of Doug's gambling addiction
In the upcoming week's episodes of Beyond The Gates, spoilers reveal that Doug's gambling addiction could soon start to affect his career as a surgeon. Spoilers hint that he could either realize how badly his gambling affects his career in the operation theater while performing a surgery after spending a long night at the casino, or one of Joey Armstrong's men could end up beating him up badly due to his unpaid gambling debts, which would prevent him from going to work.
Spoilers also suggest that his hands could be injured in the altercation, which would directly affect his ability to perform life-saving surgeries. Either way, this upcoming week will be tough for Doug as he navigates the consequences of his incessant gambling.
2) Leslie and Ted's past surfaces
Leslie will scam Ted Richardson and take fifty thousand dollars in exchange for staying away from his family and keeping quiet about the affair that they had years ago. In addition, spoilers for Beyond The Gates reveal that her role in Laura Peterson's accident could be revealed as well.
Leslie was the motorcyclist who ran Laura off the road, causing her accident to clear the way for her daughter, Eva. She wanted to prevent Laura from working, ensuring she would not come in the way of her plans of ruining the Richardson family. Despite taking money from Ted, Leslie will also promise Eva that she still intends to reveal the affair to Nicole during their anniversary party.
3) Tensions between Dani Dupree and Chelsea Hamilton
In the upcoming week's episodes of Beyond The Gates, Chelsea Hamilton will walk her last show as a model at a fashion event, where her mother and manager, Dani Dupree, will try to make sure that the event is memorable for her. All their family members will attend the event to cheer Chelsea on. Spoilers reveal that Martin and Smitty's daughter, Samantha Richardson, will be awestruck by the event and confess her dreams of becoming a model like Chelsea.
Samantha's dreams could potentially cause tensions between Chelsea and Dani, as Dani begins to move on from Chelsea to Samantha to try to continue her position as a model manager. Spoilers reveal that this shift would cause Chelsea some jealousy.
