Kelly Reilly, the powerhouse behind the unforgettable Beth Dutton in Yellowstone,
has weighed in on the prospect of returning for future escapades!
‘A wild horse that can’t be tamed’ is an apt description for Kelly Reilly’s portrayal
of Beth Dutton in the hit series Yellowstone. With a personality as fierce as that of a wild stallion, Beth doesn’t just devour her enemies; she leaves her allies shaking in their boots. You might love her, hate her, or fear her, but this Yellowstone character is a force of nature that keeps everyone on their toes!
