Paramount Network’s flagship neo-Western drama Yellowstone concluded its run on December 15, 2024. In the last few episodes, while the audience was intrigued about how the Duttons’ story would end, there came a surprise as Bella Hadid made an appearance on the show.
The supermodel had a cameo in the series’ penultimate episode and played horse trainer Travis Wheatley’s girlfriend, Sadie. Bella Hadid’s guest appearance on Yellowstone made a lasting impact on the audience.
Considering the model is a trained horse rider, she suited the character perfectly and depicted her stellar acting chops. To celebrate her appearance in the show, Bella has shared a string of behind-the-scenes photos on Instagram.

She thanked Kelly Reilly, who played Beth Dutton in Yellowstone and shared the screen with her. Bella also thanked series creator Taylor Sheridan, who, interestingly, played her boyfriend Travis Wheatley in the series:

Bella Hadid appears in Yellowstone season 5, episode 13. She plays Sadie, the bold and confident girlfriend of horse trainer Travis Wheatley. Sadie meets Beth Dutton when the latter goes to Texas to check on Travis and her horses. Beth does not trust him and wants to ensure he is not messing things up.
