Kelly Reilly stars as Beth Dutton on \u2018Yellowstone\u2019 and \u2018Dutton Ranch.\u2019The British actress is married to financier Kyle Baugher.\u2018Dutton Ranch\u2019 premieres on May 15.<\/p>\n
Yellowstone fans know and love Beth Dutton for her feisty, brash personality and unwavering love story with Rip Wheeler. While Kelly Reilly, the actress who portrays her, is notably softer in real life, her husband is an American man\u2019s man, much like Rip (Cole Hauser).<\/p>\n
In an interview with Virgin Radio UK<\/a> about the Dutton Ranch<\/a> spinoff, Kelly opened up about her real-life love story. When asked how much her husband resembles Rip, she was quick to respond. \u201cHe\u2019s a man; he\u2019s a dude; he\u2019s my man,\u201d she nodded along, smiling, while Cole Hauser, who was also on-air, pointed out that he\u2019s American. \u201cHe\u2019s quiet, you know, but\u2026 there\u2019s definitely a crossover,\u201d Kelly continued. \u201cKyle\u2019s the man,\u201d Cole added.<\/p>\n Funny enough, Kelly met her husband, Kyle Baugher, in Texas, where most of Dutton Ranch was filmed. \u201cI met him at his brother\u2019s wedding [in Texas]; I was a plus-one, didn\u2019t know anybody. I basically gatecrashed a wedding and fell in love with the best man, who I thought was Texan,\u201d Kelly shared. In reality, Kyle is from Long Island and was merely visiting Texas on his brother\u2019s behalf. \u201cAll respect to Long Island, but yeah, he wasn\u2019t my fancy of cowboy\u2014and this is all pre-Yellowstone,\u201d Kelly continued.<\/p>\n Tristar Media\/\/Getty Images<\/p>\n Kyle, a financier, might not have been the rugged Texan cowboy Kelly initially imagined, but that didn\u2019t stop her from marrying him. And once they tied the knot, they had the most Yellowstone-coded honeymoon of all. \u201cWe went to Montana,\u201d Kelly nostalgically recalled. \u201cWe were literally at a ranch\u2014I wanted to go riding in Montana. This is like 2012 and\u2026 I remember saying to Kyle, \u2018God, wouldn\u2019t it be amazing to come to work in a place like this\u2019\u2014I was working at the time in a backlot in Brooklyn and it\u2019s not the same\u2014and I said \u2018Wouldn\u2019t it be great to go to work in such beautiful nature.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n Five years later, she landed her role as Beth Dutton on Yellowstone. Suffice to say, getting to work on the show\u2019s incomparable Montana sets was a dream come true for Kelly.<\/p>\n Rebecca Norris is a full-time freelance writer living in the DC metro area.
