Looked a the trailer again and noticed that Bill's daughter is against him too. The Duprees are set to be a strong united front. In the punching scene I also noticed that Anita is just standing there as Dani punches Hayley and doesn't seem to be trying to intervene.

Honestly, Hayley seems like a much more sympathetic character to me after this trailer. They might be labeling her as the "homewrecker" but it seems as if she and Bill did genuinely fall in love, and all Hayley is craving is acceptance from her new community that has automatically disregarded her because of the affair and the power the Dupree's wield in said community. IMO, I also think the Dupree's constantly berating/slut-shaming her is going to make her look a lot more sympathetic to the audience, which I have to wonder if that's intentional or not. 

In a way, she is the CBS Daytime successor to Brooke Logan, lol (at least when Brooke was genuinely sympathetic, which I did think she was in the first decade or so of B&B).

I completely agree with all of this.

All this time I was siding with Dani, but after watching the second trailer, I now side with Hayley too, which is good. For now, I'm 50/50 on who will be my favorite, but I have sympathy for Hayley already. I did not expect that going in. That said, Bill (Timon Durrett) is a find. He may be playing the bad guy/villain, but I'm here for it!

Like I said: He was fine as a cheater on Queen Sugar and he's fine here! I still think he and Dani might end up back together. But I share both of your suspicions re: Hayley. I guess we'll see.

Considering Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne (Arielle Prepetit) inherited Anita's gift for singing, I am sure that sways her more to the Dupree family over the Hamiltons. Makes me wonder if maybe Chelsea Hamilton (RhonniRose Mantilla) leans more to Bill than Dani (even if Dani has a presence)?

He has a commanding presence that is not going to be ignored. Kind of love it. He's definitely the villain in this story from my perspective, and I know he is going to EAT!

I am sure a fair amount of flip-flopping may happen, although, I'm also praying it'd be an organic type of thing.

It looks like the typical soap dynamic of the wife being more sympathetic and fragile while the mistress is more bold and unrepentant has somewhat been flipped. Brooke would sometimes fall into feeling sorry for herself and excusing her behavior because of "destiny" and I can see vibes of Hayley going in that direction.

With Dani pushing Chelsea's career maybe a little too hard it's probable that she will lean more towards Bill if he is the parent putting less pressure on her.
