Reilly notes there was ‘always’ only going to be five season of Yellowstone in Taylor’s mind, but as the show reached incredible success, ‘everyone’ wanted more.
Still, she adds that, “Fate took it, and we ended this part of Yellowstone in a way that he (Sheridan) always envisioned it to end.”
During the interview, she also hints about Beth’s story, entering Season 5, Part 2. She’ll struggle with the distance between her and her hubby, Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser), and be ‘miserable’ without him. Kelly adds that within 24 hours, Beth won’t have much patience and ask him when he’s coming back, and she may take a trip to Texas to see him.
