Recently on Beyond The Gates, Bill Hamilton and Dani Dupree split up from their relationship, and Bill married Hayley Lawson Hamilton. The entire community at Fairmont Crest Estates rallied behind Dani's plight and showed her support. They also refused to take Hayley into their elite social circles, which upset her and Bill a lot.

Dani struggled with trying to cope emotionally with Bill's departure from her life and took refuge in alcohol. In addition to that, her daughter, Chelsea Hamilton, chose to quit her full-time modeling career, which used to be managed by Dani. Vernon Dupree had tried to show support to his daughter Dani, but was not able to help her resolve her drinking issue.

However, Dani's best friend, Pamela Curtis, offered her to be a part of a new business agency that she wanted to launch and asked Dani to make a comeback in the fashion world. Dani agreed, and they decided that the agency would be known as the Dupree-Curtis Modeling Agency.

Chelsea thought that she would try her hand at a purse designing business with her cousin, Katherine Kat Thomas. Meanwhile, Leslie Thomas had taken fifty thousand dollars from Ted Richardson in exchange for keeping quiet regarding her former affair with him and staying away from his family.
