Beals' father was African-American, and her mother is Irish-American. She has two brothers, Bobby and Gregory. Her father died when Beals was 9 years old, and her mother married Edward Cohen in 1981. Beals has said her biracial heritage has affected her, as she has "always lived sort of on the outside", with an idea "of being the other in society". She got her first job at age 13 at an ice cream store, using her height at the time (she is now 5 ft 8 in [1.73 m]) to convince her boss she was 16.

In December 2019, Beals will reprise her role as Bette Porter in The L Word: Generation Q, the sequel series to The L Word, and will also be executive-producing the show. She will star alongside fellow The L Word cast members, Katherine Moennig and Leisha Hailey.

On March 10, 2014, it was announced that Beals would star as Dr. Kathryn Russo (character's name is Dr. Carolyn Tyler) in Proof, a TNT supernatural medical drama about a hard-nosed surgeon, struggling with the loss of her teenage son, who begins to investigate that there may be life after death. The series ran from June 16 through August 18, 2015, and was produced by Kyra Sedgwick.
