What's Beauty In Black About Anyway? A Quick Catch-Up
For those just jumping in Beauty In Black throws us into the lives of two women from totally different worlds. We have Kimmie played by Taylor Polidore Williams who is trying to get her life together after some hard times. Then there's Mallory Bellarie played by Crystle Stewart a powerful woman running a beauty empire with her wealthy family.
Kimmie gets pulled into the Bellarie family's messy world and it turns out they have more secrets than just lipstick shades. Half the family runs the "Beauty in Black" brand but the other half is mixed up in some seriously shady stuff including a nightclub that is a front for human trafficking. Things get real when Kimmie’s sister is kidnapped in Part 1 and Kimmie transforms from a struggling woman to a force to be reckoned with to save her.
Season 1 Part 2 Ending Cliffhanger: Wait... Kimmie is Marrying WHO?! (Spoilers Ahead!)

Season 1 of Beauty In Black is split into two parts each with eight episodes. Part 2 really ramps up the drama. We see Kimmie go from trying to survive to fighting back against the messed-up Bellarie family. She even takes matters into her own hands with some intense scenes like confronting Delinda and Roy.
But the biggest shocker? The season finale ends with Bellarie family patriarch Horace played by Ricco Ross asking Kimmie to marry him! Yes marry him. Turns out Horace has a serious illness and wants to stop his kids from inheriting everything. And Kimmie marrying him makes her part of the Bellarie family and suddenly in control of a huge fortune close to $400 million according to her friend Rain’s quick online search.
So Kimmie goes from struggling to make rent to potentially being the stepmother and boss of this powerful and dangerous family. Talk about a twist! Horace's kids are not happy about it of course setting the stage for a potentially explosive Season 2.
So Will Season 2 Happen? Here's What We Know

Netflix hasn't officially said "yes" to Beauty In Black Season 2 yet. But there are definitely hints that more episodes are on the way. Tyler Perry himself seemed to drop a major clue on social media . He posted about Season 2 saying fans "AIN'T READY" and thanking them for making Season 1 "HUGE!". That sounds pretty promising!
Taylor Polidore Williams who plays Kimmie also teased that this is "definitely just the beginning" for her character. She hinted that she knows what's coming in Season 2 but is keeping tight-lipped.
Plus Tyler Perry and Netflix have a bigger deal now. Beauty In Black was the first series announced under a multi-year partnership meaning Netflix is invested in Perry's shows. Given how well Beauty In Black is doing on Netflix a Season 2 renewal seems likely. Fingers crossed!
