Yellowstone fans gobsmacked as Lloyd star related to Young Lloyd actor

Rip Wheeler (played by Cole Hauser) and Beth Dutton’s (Kelly Reilly) love story was explored further during Yellowstone’s double-pill premiere on the Paramount Network thanks to the return of flashbacks. This time, viewers got to see how young Rip (Kyle Red Silverstein) and young Beth (Kylie Rogers) headed on their first date and, inevitably, it was far from plain sailing. However, it also gave fans a chance to see some of their bunkhouse favourites from yesteryear, including young Lloyd (Forrest Smith).Young Lloyd appeared in the flashback during the double bill to offer some wise words of advice for young Rip as he prepared himself for his date with young Beth.’Not one good thing happens in town, Rip. Not one good thing,’ Lloyd told him as he sat in his spot at the bunkhouse table. The words would prove to be correct as Rip and Beth’s date fell off the rails rather quickly, but it was the resemblance young Lloyd shared with his older self which had fans talking.Now, Lloyd star Forrie J Smith has taken to Instagram to reveal there’s a pretty jaw-dropping reason why – and it isn’t CGI or makeup.READ MORE: Kayce Dutton and Monica baby twist leaves Yellowstone fans ‘in tears’ Yellowstone: Young Lloyd star is related to Forrie J Smith (Image: PARAMOUNT) Yellowstone: Lloyd and Rip have been best pals for years (Image: PARAMOUNT) Yellowstone: Forrie J Smith has played Lloyd since the start (Image: PARAMOUNT)Back in season two, episode five, titled Touching your Enemy, Forrest made his first foray into the bunkhouse for another flashback sequence.Yellowstone remains Forrest’s only major acting credit but he has provided his talent to a short film before.According to IMDb, Forrest appeared in the short film The Magi alongside Preacher, Get Out and NCIS: New Orleans star Gary Wayne Loper.Following the revelation by Forrie, it didn’t take long for gobsmacked fans to share their surprised reactions.DON’T MISS:All you need to know about who is joining Yellowstone season 5 castYellowstone fury as fans blast Paramount+ for being ‘unable to watch’Yellowstone season 5 newcomer pays tribute to ‘spitfire’ Kelly ReillyReplying to Forrie’s Instagram post, Yellowstone fan @kimbosliceee85 said: ‘I was SO IMPRESSED they found someone who resembles you so much!
