Retrieve imagelink on HippoBean

Experience Manager (PaaS/OnPrem)

Hello,
I am trying to retrieve imagelink property from pagemodel api. The reason I am doing this, is that I need in my component to retrieve the properties from the document selected into that component.
Here is the json output for the selected document:

u3a83d2788d274c3f9ce3d40add3ab7d9: {

  • id: “3a83d278-8d27-4c3f-9ce3-d40add3ab7d9”,
  • _meta: { },
  • _links: {
    • site: {
      • href: “/site/”,
      • type: “internal”}},
  • name: “article-header”,
  • displayName: “Article-Header”,
  • keys: [
    • “manufacturing”],
  • date: 1612994400000,
  • description: “Lorem ipsum article header description”,
  • title: “Parents’ Guide to turning a home office into a learning space”,
  • alternatekeys: [
    • “category-2”,
    • “category-3”],
  • videoLink: “www.videoURL.com”,
  • imagelink: {
    ** * $ref: “/content/u3c740fcf8ec54f00a713ff96caa645c8”},**
  • localeString: “en”
    }

I am able to retrieve all the required properties on my HippoBean but not the imagelink . Any help is much appreciated.
This is how I retrieve the properties on my HippoBean:

HippoBean hippoBean = request.getRequestContext().getSiteContentBaseBean().getBean(socialPromo.getArticleDocument());
hippoBean.getProperties();
