We already know that Dani was once a famous model who gave up her career to marry Bill Hamilton and raise their daughters.

We also already know that Dani's daughter Chelsea (RhonniRose Mantilla) is a model.  We've seen her in promos with a blue sparkly scarf over her head, being photographed, and saying she's going to outdo the Kardashians.

The spoiler is that when Dani was a model long ago, she was on the cover of Ebony.
And Chelsea has also been photographed by Ebony later on -- in a cover of Ebony that had both Dani and Chelsea on the same cover.
The real-life Ebony magazine created these two "Ebony covers" of Dani  and Dani/Chelsea -- as props for the show to hang on the wall of of one of the sets. 

The other spoiler is that in the photoshoot we saw in the promo of Chelsea with the blue scarf -- she's getting her picture taken and we see more of her wardrobe (with the Ebony covers on the wall in the background during the photoshoot)

Quotes from the Ebony article from Karla Mosley and RhonniRose Mantilla:
https://www.ebony.com/ebony-photo-exclusive-black-love-reigns-at-cbs-new-soap-opera-beyond-the-gates/

Mosley is thrilled to be on a show that follows three generations of Black women. "A Black matriarch leading this and then her daughters is so refreshing, but also reflective of our culture. Women are the people who drive everything. It's why we talk so much right now about protecting Black women and thanking Black women. We have been carrying this country and this world on our backs for a long time," she shared.

"It's exciting to see women who are self-made, who are our mothers, but also have their own businesses, lives, careers, passion and ambition, and also find a way to balance that with love for their family and community," Mosley added.

Getting the chance to work with Tunie and Mosley is something that Mantilla cherishes. "I was raised by my mother and grandmother, so it means the world to me to be able to show strong Black women and learn from Karla and Tamara. It's an incredible opportunity."

For both women, being featured in EBONY's cameo is a dream come true.

"My grandmother had a shelf full of EBONY magazines, and when I was little, I would make vision boards. I would cut the models out because they looked like me...EBONY was the magazine to me growing up," Mantilla exclaimed. "When I found out that y'all were coming, it was like my childhood dream coming true. It's so full circle to me."

Added Mosley, "I've been reading EBONY for many years, from the nineties when it was all that soft lighting and everything. It's cool to see that. The best part of this business is we sometimes see our dreams come to fruition."
