Yellowstone stars Hassie Harrison and Ryan Bingham confirm their relationship with a fiery romantic kiss: ‘I love you, cowboy’

Yellowstone actors Hassie Harrison and Ryan Bingham publicly confirmed their relationship with a sweet but fiery photo shared to Instagram on Wednesday.

The picture, which Ryan, 42, posted to his account, showed the lovebirds embracing and sharing a passionate kiss.

However, it had an element of danger, as they were standing in front of a roaring blaze from some brush that had been ignited. 

The loving display follows their Yellowstone costar Dawn Olivieri’s exclusive tease to DailyMail.com that star Kevin Costner could bow out of the hit show for good.

In Ryan’s photo, he and Hassie, 33, were dressed in matching camouflage jackets with jeans and dark boots. 

Sweet: Harrison made sure there wasn’t any confusion with her comment: ‘i love you, cowboy’

The lovebirds also both wore caps, which were titled upward as they leaned in for the kiss.

He referenced the inferno behind them in his caption. ‘More than a spark,’ he wrote, while tagging Hassie.

She doubled down in the comments, adding, ‘i love you, cowboy,’ along with a loved-up emoji. 

Both actors are relatively recent additions to Yellowstone’s sprawling cast.

Hassie joined the series during its third season in 2020, while Ryan has been part of the series since its inception.

She plays Laramie, who works for Kevin Costner’s John Dutton III as a ranch hand and horse racer.

Ryan got his start as a singer–songwriter before moving into acting.

He plays Walker, a fellow ranch hand, who is also, fittingly, a musician, as well as a former convict. He was originally a recurring character in the first three seasons, before being bumped up to series regular status with season four.

Hassie and Ryan’s romance may have been an example of life imitating art, as their characters are also dating on Yellowstone.

Rumors: The actors’ romance comes amid concerns that series patriarch Kevin Costner will depart the show to focus on other passion projects; still from Yellowstone

Harrison was previously in a relationship with the actor Austin Nichols, while Bingham shares three children with his ex-wife Anna Axster, whom he was married to from 2009 to 2021. 

The actors’ romance comes amid concerns for the future of their popular series.

Costner has reportedly wanted to significantly decrease the amount of shooting he will do for the second part of the five season in order to focus on directing and starring in his multi-part western epic Horizon.

The friction between him and the production has led to speculation that series creator and showrunner Taylor Sheridan might kill off his character, which could occur just as The Hollywood Reporter confirmed that Matthew McConaughey is getting his own Yellowstone spinoff series.
