You thought the backstabbing, bed-hopping, and billion-dollar betrayals in Beauty in Black couldn’t get any darker? Hold onto your wigs, because Season 3 (coming to Netflix in late 2026) is about to drop the most explosive bombshell in Tyler Perry soap history: Kimmie is pregnant. And the father is none other than the devil in a three-piece suit himself, Horace Lamb.

Yes, THAT Horace. The same man who is currently lying in a private hospital suite, supposedly on his deathbed, riddled with stage-4 cancer, barely able to speak above a whisper while his ruthless family circles like vultures waiting to carve up his empire.

And Kimmie, his loyal, long-suffering wife who has spent two seasons playing the perfect grieving spouse, is carrying his child. Or at least, that’s what she wants everyone to believe.

Here’s the jaw-dropping truth that will tear the Lamb family apart from the inside out: the baby is Horace’s. But Kimmie is about to commit the ultimate betrayal while her husband takes his final breaths.

Season 3 picks up mere days after the shocking Season 2 finale, where Horace collapsed at his own birthday gala after announcing he was cutting his children out of the will. Now hooked to machines, barely conscious, Horace has one dying wish: to leave everything (the company, the properties, the offshore accounts) to the child Kimmie is supposedly carrying. In a moment of rare vulnerability, he whispers to his lawyer that this baby is his redemption, his legacy, the one pure thing he’s ever created.

Kimmie weeps at his bedside, clutching his hand, promising she’ll protect their miracle no matter what. The entire family watches in stunned silence as Horace signs a new will that disinherits Roy, Mallory, and even scheming Jules in favor of the unborn heir. For the first time in years, Kimmie holds all the power.

But behind those crocodile tears is a woman who has been plotting her escape for months.

Flashbacks throughout the season reveal the sickening truth: Kimmie and Horace’s “miracle conception” happened during a drunken, hate-fueled night after she caught him with yet another mistress. It was revenge sex at its most toxic. She never expected to actually get pregnant. And the moment that test turned positive, Kimmie saw her golden ticket out, not just financial freedom, but total control.

Now, with Horace fading fast, Kimmie makes her move.

In episode 5 (already being called “The Devil Wears Chanel” by cast members), Kimmie quietly meets with a discreet doctor in Atlanta. She’s not there for prenatal care. She’s there to falsify DNA results. Because while the baby is biologically Horace’s, Kimmie has no intention of raising it under the Lamb name, or letting Horace’s greedy children anywhere near her child when she finally disappears with the entire fortune.

Her plan? Wait until Horace dies, let the new will be read, then “tragically” lose the baby shortly after the funeral. She’ll claim a late-term miscarriage caused by stress from the grieving family’s attacks. With no living heir, the money reverts to her as the widowed spouse. Then she vanishes to a private island already purchased under a fake name, leaving Roy, Mallory, and the rest fighting over an empty empire.

But there’s one person who suspects the truth: Jules.

Horace’s illegitimate daughter (and the only Lamb most like him) has been watching Kimmie like a hawk. Jules notices the complete lack of baby bump photos on Kimmie’s usually filtered-to-death Instagram. She catches Kimmie throwing up, not from morning sickness, but from nerves. And in the most chilling scene of the season, Jules secretly records Kimmie on the doctor discussing “payment for services rendered” and the forged paternity documents that will fool even the most aggressive court-ordered test.

The confrontation in episode 8 is pure Tyler Perry fireworks.

Jules storms into Horace’s hospital room while he’s semi-conscious and plays the recording at full volume. Kimmie walks in mid-sentence and, for the first time in three seasons, completely loses her composure. She lunges for the phone. Jules slaps her across the face so hard the diamond earrings Horace bought her go flying. The heart monitor starts beeping wildly as Horace, with the last of his strength, turns his head toward Kimmie and rasps a single word: “Monster.”

The season finale is 72 minutes of unrelenting chaos.

Horace flatlines, but not before changing the will one final time, this time leaving everything to charity just to spite them all. Kimmie, now truly desperate, tries to smother him with a pillow to stop the lawyer from witnessing the new signature. Security cameras catch everything. Roy walks in at the exact right (or wrong) moment and finally snaps, tackling Kimmie to the ground while screaming that she destroyed their father.

As police sirens wail in the distance, Kimmie, makeup ruined, hair wild, blood on her silk dress, looks straight into the camera and smiles.

“Because none of you ever deserved him,” she says. “And now none of you will ever touch what’s mine.”

Cut to black.

The final shot of the season? A positive pregnancy test on a bathroom counter in an unknown location… and a plane tickets to a non-extradition country boarding in thirty minutes.

Kimmie may have lost the Lamb fortune.

But she’s about to win the most dangerous game of all, alone, untouchable, and very, very pregnant with the heir Horace will never meet.

Season 3 of Beauty in Black isn’t just must-watch TV.

It’s a masterclass in how far a woman will go when betrayal is her love language.

And we haven’t even talked about what Bellarie does when she finds out her best friend is carrying her rapist’s baby…

Buckle up. This one’s going to hurt so good.
