Supermodel Bella Hadid Just Crashed the Penultimate 'Yellowstone' Episode
As the epic conclusion of Yellowstone races towards us faster than several wild horses, Taylor Sheridan’s epic series is pulling out all the stops. But, in the second-to-last episode of Yellowstone Season 5, “Give the World Away,” the show brought in a brand-new character for a surprising cameo. The character of Travis Wheatley—played by Sheridan himself—had a paramour introduced in the form of a woman named “Sadie,” played by supermodel Bella Hadid.
Without revealing any major spoilers, let’s just say that Wheatley’s current machinations in Yellowstone aren’t entirely friendly. In this episode, Beth (Kelly Reilly) is trying to convince Travis to leave Texas and return to the Yellowstone ranch in Montana to help the Duttons auction off various assets to save their skins. But Beth, unsurprisingly, discovers that Wheatley is deep in self-indulgent debauchery, playing strip poker with three women at the same time.

However, none of these women are Wheatley’s girlfriend. And that’s because Beth is confronted with Sadie (Hadid), who coldly explains to Beth about her loyalty to Travis Wheatley, saying, “I would never work for a horse trainer, Travis is my boyfriend.”
Whether or not Travis is just using Sadie the way he uses other characters isn’t entirely clear. But, clearly, as Deadline pointed out, Taylor Sheridan essentially wrote himself into a situation where tons of women want to be around him, and his loyal girlfriend—who runs interference for him—is a literal supermodel.
Say what you will about Taylor Sheridan, but when he builds a fantasy world to play in, he certainly doesn’t mess around.
