The second part of the fifth season of Yellowstone continues to enthrall viewers on Paramount Network. Created by showrunner Taylor Sheridan, Yellowstone chronicles the ups and downs of the Dutton family, a conspicuous unit that owns one of the largest ranches in the country. Among the other conflicting relationships in Yellowstone, the fractured and apprehensive relationship between Jamie Dutton and Beth Dutton has been established right from the first episode of the debut season.
Beth Dutton, played by Kelly Reilly on Yellowstone is a head-strong character and the foster daughter of the show's protagonist John Dutton, played by Kevin Costner. Beth shares an acrimonious relationship with her brother Jamie Dutton played by Wes Bentley. Although the current season has once again presented them as constantly at odds with each other, their rivalry was properly explained in an episode from the third season of Yellowstone titled Cowboys and Dreamers.
In the episode, it was revealed to the audience through a flashback that during her teenage years Beth had once found herself to be pregnant with her boyfriend Rip's child. Rip never came to know about this since Beth took the matter to Jamie, who in turn took her to an abortion clinic. Although Beth and Jamie got rid of the child, Beth ended up getting forcibly sterilized.
Here's everything we know.
Beth Dutton's pregnancy details from Yellowstone revealed
Cowboys and Dreamers tells us that a young Beth Dutton was in love with Rip Wheeler and she had an unplanned pregnancy. Due to her young age, she realized that she could not make the news of her pregnancy public, especially given the fact that her father would not take too kindly to it. Revealing the news to John Dutton might also mean a potential life risk for Rip and that's why Beth confided about the matter in her brother Jamie.
Although Jamie kept the secret and never revealed it to John, he did something that would irrevocably change Beth's life. Since the Duttons are too well known all over the county, Jamie couldn't take Beth to just any clinic or hospital. Instead, he took her to a clinic on the Broken Rock Indian Reservation so that the abortion might be done secretly and with total discretion.
However, at that time, Beth was unaware of the fact that anyone having an abortion at that clinic has to mandatorily undergo sterilization. The same happened with Beth and thereby she lost the ability to ever have children again. Thereafter when she learned that Jamie had known about this and wilfully chose not to tell her, she became her brother's sworn enemy. Their relationship was fractured forever. Rip, meanwhile, never knew anything about this.
Did Jamie murder his biological father?

Jamie is someone who is capable of doing sinister things and this is further accentuated by the fact that he murdered his biological father Garrett Randall. Garrett once murdered his wife in a fit of rage and was subsequently sentenced to thirty years in prison. When he finally turned his attention to his son Jamie, the latter started feeling unconfident and insecure in his father's presence.
Garrett on his part was hell-bent on turning Jamie against John Dutton and the Dutton family. Eventually, Jamie chose the Duttons over his biological father and murdered Garrett, and buried his body in the train station, which is often used by the Dutton family to get rid of their enemies.
