‘Yellowstone’ actors Ryan Bingham and Hassie Harrison are dating
Ryan Bingham shared a photo of the couple on social media.
‘Yellowstone’ actors Ryan Bingham and Hassie Harrison have confirmed their off-screen romance thanks to a photo shared on Bingham’s Instagram account.
The pair play the couple Walker and Laramie, respectively, on ‘Yellowstone’.
“More than a spark,” Bingham captioned the photo as the couple kissed in front of a bonfire, complete with a fire emoji.
When did the couple meet?
Harrison confirmed their love by commenting “I love you, cowboy” on Bingham’s post. It’s unclear how long Bingham, 42, and Harrison, 33, began dating, but they met on the set of ‘Yellowstone’ in 2020.
Before his relationship with Harrison, Bingham was married to Anna Axster, until the couple divorced in 2021 after 12 years of marriage. They share three children together.
Harrison previously dated actor Austin Nichols, meeting in 2018 on the set of ‘The Iron Orchard’ a historical drama, before they unceremoniously split sometime in 2020.
Who do they play on ‘Yellowstone’?
On the Western series, Bingham plays Walker, a former convict turned musician and ranch hand, who is a recurring character throughout the first three seasons. He became a series regular beginning in season four.
Harrison, who plays Laramie, a fellow ranch hand and barrel racer, joined the show in season three. Walker and Laramie begin a relationship at the end of season three and become closer throughout season four.
In season five, Rip Wheeler (played by Cole Hauser) kicks out Laramie and her friend Mia from the bunkhouse at the ranch, putting Walker and Laramie’s relationship into question.
The future of ‘Yellowstone’ is still uncertain
The future of ‘Yellowstone’ is up in the air, after delays and rumors that the star of the show Kevin Costner, who plays the patriarch of the Yellowstone ranch, was requesting less filming time on the series to focus on his upcoming Western film ‘Horizon’.
Costner’s lawyer Matty Singer denied this allegation, saying: “The idea that Kevin was only willing to work one week on the second half of Season 5 of Yellowstone is an absolute lie.”
“It’s ridiculous—and anyone suggesting it shouldn’t be believed for one second.”
So far, filming has not resumed on the series, and no confirmation of season six has been announced.
