'Yellowstone' Fans Are Convinced Kelly Reilly's New Instagram Post Reveals Beth's Fate

  • Yellowstone fans are patiently awaiting the show's June release.

  • The season 3 finale led some viewers to believe that Beth Dutton won't make it to season 4 in one piece.

  • Kelly Reilly, who plays Beth, just shared a photo on 6666 Ranch, convincing many that she survived the bombing.


The season 4 premiere will be here before we know it, but Yellowstone fans are demanding answers now.

Last summer's bombshell season 3 finale left fans wondering if we'd ever see Beth (Kelly Reilly), Kayce (Luke Grimes) and John Dutton (Kevin Costner) together again. At the very end of the episode, all three were victims of targeted attacks: a bomb exploded in Beth's office, gunmen stormed Kayce's office and John was shot on the side of the road. Even though the motive behind the attacks still remains a mystery, many have spent the last few months coming up with theories, plotting all the ways that Jamie (Wes Bentley), Market Equities or the California biker gang were involved.

While it seems highly unlikely that the writers would kill off any of the three main characters, we can't rule out anything on a show as unpredictable as Yellowstone. That's why fans are always searching for signs on social media that hint at what's ahead for the Duttons.

Their latest find: Kelly Reilly recently posted an Instagram photo of her on horseback overlooking 6666 Ranch with the caption, "Dream come true riding out on the 6666 ranch today." For some context, Yellowstone's creator Taylor Sheridan recently announced that he is making a spin-off series for Paramount+ about 6666 Ranch, which he plans to film on the Texas-famous operation. Some local news outlets even report that Taylor purchased the ranch, which was on the market for a whopping $347.7 million.

Sure, Kelly's post could just her way of showing that she's soaking up some well-deserved downtime on the ranch — but remember, nothing gets past Yellowstone fans. Some went straight to the comments to ask if this post implies that Beth survived the finale or even, that Beth will make an appearance on the new Paramount+ show, 6666. "I think the cat's out of the bag now," one hopeful fan wrote. "Of course she did!! Where would the show be without Mr Dutton or Beth," another echoed.

Other fans pointed out that it's unclear what show she's filming — if anything at all. "I don’t believe any past seasons were filmed here, but yes I knew they are filming some scenes at 6666. I’m just sayin, we don’t know that they’re filming...," they commented. Back in October, there were reports that Yellowstone's 2nd Unit was filming b-roll shots on the Texas ranch, but the main cast wasn't expected to appear.

Keeping that in mind, it's possible that Kelly's post is a clue that they're filming a crossover episode for the Paramount+ spin-off. "I believe they are filming a crossover with YS [Yellowstone] or honeymoon at the ranch with Rip (Cole Hauser)," another wrote.

Just a few days earlier, Kelly posted another photo, showing her sitting on a massive stack of hay bales with Taylor's wife, Nic Sheridan. When Nic reposted the photo on her personal Instagram, she used a string of hashtags to show that this trip was for play, not work.

That means, Yellowstone fans may be reaching here. Luckily, we won't have to wait too long to find out the truth.
