As the final season of Yellowstone nears its end, fans were treated to a surprise cameo from supermodel Bella Hadid. In episode 13, Hadid plays Sadie, the girlfriend of horse trainer Travis Wheatley, portrayed by show creator Taylor Sheridan.
Hadid, an accomplished equestrian, makes her debut when Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) arrives at Travis’ Texas ranch. She has a brief but memorable exchange with Beth, where she quips, “A very expensive one,” after Beth is mistaken for a masseuse.
Beth travels to Texas to oversee a horse auction, but finds Travis distracted by a strip poker game. After watching him in action at the arena, Beth is impressed by Travis’ salesmanship, especially when he sells a horse for $3 million by orchestrating a rigged auction. She then invites him to Montana for the Yellowstone ranch auction the following day.
Sadie returns for a brief but notable appearance during the Yellowstone auction, dressed in full Western attire, including a cowboy hat and ripped tank top.
Hadid isn’t the only guest star of the episode. Bart Johnson, Blake Lively’s brother-in-law, also makes an appearance, hitting on Beth at a local bar. The band Turnpike Troubadours perform live during the auction as well.
Hadid showcased her real-life equestrian skills, sharing on Instagram that she recently earned her first championship buckle after qualifying for several finals in horse competitions. She and her boyfriend, professional horseman Adan Banuelos, also made waves during a special performance in downtown Manhattan earlier this year.
