The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys Star Breaks Silence After Steve McBee Is Missing From Premiere
The McBee boys are back in the saddle for another season of The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys on Bravo, and Steven Jr. has spoken out about his father’s legal troubles. The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys season 2 premiered on June 30, and with it came a slew of questions about Steve McBee Sr.’s legal drama and his role in the family and on the show. Steve Sr. will not be appearing physically during season 2.
Steven McBee Jr. recently gave an interview to Pop Culture and said his father’s looming sentence for his part in a million-dollar insurance fraud scheme has “drawn [the McBee family] closer together on the personal side because there’s so many different headlines out there.” Still, Steven said they know “what’s really going on, and [they] know the love and support [they] have for [his] dad and for each other.”
What Steve McBee’s Absence Means For McBee Dynasty Season 2
Steve Is Still A Looming Presence
Despite Steve Sr. not physically appearing in the second season of his family’s reality show, he’s still making his presence known. Firstly, Steve Sr.’s personal life is in shambles, and the boys are left to pick up the pieces, which plays out on The McBee Dynasty. Despite not being on the show, Steve Sr.’s sons are still cleaning up after him.
Steve Sr.’s rocky relationship with Galyna Saltkovska came to a head when she discovered that Steve Sr. was seeing a friend of hers, someone she introduced to Steve Sr. Galyna feels betrayed and heartbroken, and she calls Steve Sr. during the McBee Dynasty season 2 premiere to let him know how upset she is.
Steve Sr.’s new girlfriend, Masha, even makes an appearance during episode 1, so it’s likely this will continue to create drama throughout the season. Steve Sr. is adept at remaining in the spotlight, even without appearing on the show.
While his sons are trying to manage their own personal lives, they’ll still have their hands full with work and with managing things without Steve Sr. They will also have to clean up Steve Sr.’s mess, including what happens with Galyna and Masha.
Our Take On Steven Jr. Speaking Out About Father’s Scandal
Steven Jr. Had To Say Something
The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys has always toed the line between honest work and blurring the lines of what’s right and wrong. That’s what made the show so popular in the first place.
Steve Sr. is a larger-than-life figure, and he flaunted the rules just like a real cowboy would, at least in his mind. Now that he’s in real legal trouble and facing 30 years in prison when he’s sentenced, it would be outrageous if The McBee Dynasty didn’t at least address it. According to clips from the season, Steve Sr.’s legal problems will be covered.
It makes perfect sense that Steve Sr. isn’t appearing on The McBee Dynasty and that Steven Jr. would speak about it to the press.
Steven Jr.’s comments to Pop Culture did nothing to incriminate his dad or portray him in a negative light. In fact, his words about knowing “what’s really going on” behind the scenes are in line with how the family operates in general: they protect their own, and they never let anyone see them sweat.
Steve Sr. is facing serious prison time. The plot of The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys season 1 centered on which of the McBee boys would take over for their dad when he wasn’t able to run the farm anymore. It seems like that’s going to happen sooner than they planned, so the pressure is on for the McBee brothers to save their farm and their father’s legacy.
