Beth Dutton might be what you’d take into account a pack-a-day smoker, and Kelly Reilly shouldn’t be right here for it. Earlier than Yellowstone’s closing episodes of Season 5 aired on the 2024 TV schedule, the actress was requested about what she’ll miss concerning the present and in addition revealed what she gained’t. Understandably, that behavior she’d like her character to kick is smoking, and right here’s hoping that may occur within the Rip and Beth spinoff.
Whereas Reilly admitted she saved Beth’s lighter after they wrapped Yellowstone, she additionally made it clear that she’s not a fan of her character’s vice in any respect, as she instructed ET:
I hope she provides up smoking at some point…She smokes – they’re natural cigarettes, and I hate smoking them a lot. There’s nonetheless smoke stepping into your face and your throat. However I need Beth to need to stay and smoking, the way in which she does it, is so excessive and it’s gonna kill her. So, I need her to discover a motive to be like ‘I like my life, life is gorgeous.’
That is so honest. As we’ve all discovered, smoking has horrible results on one’s well being and may result in lung most cancers and different well being points. Plus, it smells dangerous and the smoke, as Reilly mentioned, will get in your face and lungs.
Fortunately, she didn’t must smoke actual cigarettes as Beth. Nevertheless, as she mentioned, the natural ones nonetheless weren’t enjoyable. So, right here’s hoping this behavior may be kicked to the curb through the Beth and Rip spinoff.
— Spoilers for the Season 5 finale of Yellowstone are forward! —
I’ve a sense that gained’t be occurring rapidly, although…let’s not overlook that after Beth beat Jamie to a pulp in Season 5’s finale she lit a cigarette instantly after it BEFORE the ambulance and police received there to assist her. I don’t assume she’ll be quitting anytime quickly.
Plus, for each Beth and her husband Rip’s personal happiness she won’t need to stop chilly turkey. Think about Reilly’s character going by way of withdrawals with out her cigarettes, it’d be mayhem. The lady already has mood, and I think about it’d worsen earlier than it received higher if she tried to simply throw them within the trash.
Nevertheless, I, just like the actress who performs her, nonetheless assume Beth ought to stop. That approach Reilly can quit smoking these natural cigarettes and Beth can stay a protracted and completely satisfied life (though she is perhaps depressing for a minute).
Perhaps, now that Rip and Beth have moved off the Dutton ranch, she’ll be in a spot the place she will be able to try this. Then, when their upcoming Yellowstone present occurs, she will be able to ditch the dangerous behavior and discover new wholesome ones. Nevertheless, I’m unsure that may occur since hassle appears to comply with the Duttons wherever they go.
Fortunately, we’ll get to seek out out as a result of Rip and Beth’s story is continuous with a by-product. So, as we study extra about it and the state of Beth’s smoking behavior, we’ll maintain you posted. Within the meantime, you may return and watch Reilly in Yellowstone with a Peacock subscription.
