ANITA DUPREE CATCHES VERNON IN A LIE ON TUESDAY’S BTG AND SOMEBODY’S SLEEPING ON THE COUCH

TL;DR: Anita Dupree is back from chemo and learns Vernon’s been lying to her on Tuesday’s Beyond the Gates! Plus, the Duprees rally around Anita, Nicole spirals, Jacob and Elon have a heart-to-heart, and Ashley goes on a date with a hunky co-worker!

Vernon Dupree Is About to Be in the Doghouse

OHHH Vernon is in TROUBLE! On Tuesday’s Beyond the Gates, Anita Dupree is back from chemo and learns that her husband has been LYING to her. And listen – we KNOW what lie he told. Vernon found out Dani tested positive for the BRCA gene and told Anita he hadn’t heard anything yet. He LIED to his wife while she was hooked up to chemo trying to protect her from more bad news!

Sweet? Maybe. Smart? ABSOLUTELY NOT. This is Anita Dupree we’re talking about! This woman does NOT appreciate being coddled, protected, or kept in the dark about her own family! Vernon thought he was being a good husband but Tuesday he’s going to find out that lying to Anita – even with good intentions – is a HUGE mistake!

Write in to the editor at [email protected] and tell me: Should Vernon have told Anita the truth right away?

Anita Dupree Doesn’t Do Secrets

Here’s the thing about Anita – she’s the matriarch of the Dupree family for a REASON. She holds everyone together. She knows everyone’s business. She makes the decisions. And Vernon decided to keep her in the dark about her own daughter’s genetic test results while she was vulnerable and scared and fighting cancer?

The AUDACITY of this man! We get it, Vernon. You love your wife. You didn’t want to pile more stress on her while she’s going through chemo. But Anita is going to see this as a betrayal of trust. She’s going to wonder what ELSE Vernon has been hiding. And she’s going to be absolutely FURIOUS that everyone knew Dani’s results except HER.

Tamara Tunie is going to EAT this material up. Anita finding out she’s been lied to while battling cancer? The hurt! The anger! The disappointment! Vernon better have a REALLY good apology ready because flowers aren’t going to fix this one!

Nicole Dupree Richardson Spirals

Meanwhile, Nicole Dupree Richardson spirals on Tuesday and we totally understand why. Her sister Dani just found out she carries the BRCA gene. Nicole tested NEGATIVE. She’s in the clear while her sister faces an uncertain future.

Survivor’s guilt is REAL and Nicole is feeling it hard. Why did Dani get the gene and not her? How is she supposed to be happy about her own results when her sister is devastated? Nicole is spiraling into a mess of emotions and honestly? We’d be spiraling too.

The Duprees Rally Around Anita

In heartwarming news, the Dupree family rallies around Anita on Tuesday. This family has been through SO much lately – the cancer diagnosis, the genetic testing drama, the romantic chaos swirling around everyone. But when it matters, the Duprees show UP for each other.

Anita needs her family right now. She’s fighting cancer. She just found out her husband lied to her. She’s processing the news about Dani. Having the whole Dupree clan surrounding her with love and support is exactly what she needs… even if she’s still mad at Vernon!

Ashley Dupree Goes on a DATE!

And because we need SOME lightness in this episode, Ashley Dupree goes on a date with a co-worker on Tuesday! Word is her date is a lab tech named Grayson Perez, played by soap vet Jordi Vilasuso!

Yes THAT Jordi Vilasuso! The man has been on everything from All My Children to Guiding Light to Days of Our Lives to Young and the Restless and now he’s bringing his talents to Fairmont Crest! Ashley deserves some romance and a date with a handsome lab tech sounds like exactly the distraction she needs from all this family drama!
