This week on Beyond the Gates, the late Doug McBridge’s (Jason Graham) and his widow Vanessa McBride’s (Lauren Buglioli) on-screen family expands, when Angela Fairley makes her debut as their daughter, Deanna McBride.

Circle Wednesday March 11 and the Thursday March 12 episodes when Deanna returns to Fairmont Crest and immediately takes issue with her mother’s romantic entanglement with Joey Armstrong (Jon Lindstrom) and then clashes with her twin brother, Donnell (Alex Cheeks).

In the Beyond the Gates video preview for the week of March 9, Deanna is with her twin brother, Donnell and her mother at Uptown when Joey arrives on the scene. When he attempts to introduces himself to Deanna she’s not having it. Later, Deanna goes in on her mother, when she questions her with, “What kind of man comes in here and dedicates a building to your dead husband and drops all that money unless he’s getting something in return. Clearly you’re serving it up!” Let the family drama begin!

Taking to her Instagram on landing the role of Deanna on Beyond the Gates, Fairley shared the ups and downs in Hollywood. “In acting, they say it takes 10 years to become an overnight success,” began Angela. “On October 7, 2025, I auditioned for Deanna McBride—just days before the 10th anniversary of my move to Los Angeles on October 13, 2015. Last year was a really tough year for me, and I was sleeping on my friend’s couch when I found out that I had booked the role. Beyond grateful to join the team!”

Fairley has appeared in numerous independent films and television series including: God Complx, I Am Somebody’s Child: The Regina Louise Story and more.

Take a look at the action in and around Fairmont Crest and new episodes of Beyond the Gates below.

Now let us know, excited to see Angela Fairley’s debut as no-nonsense Deanna McBride? How do you think she will shake up the canvas? Will she be the one to bring down Joey for his part in her father’s death? Share you thoughts in the comment section and stay tuned.

This is going to be solid casting; based on the weekly promo, she is a spitfire.

I’m excited for this especially because I don’t believe for a second that Doug is dead. I think Randy knows a good amount more.

I thought the same thing. I think he’s alive waiting to make his move
