The McBee Dynasty brothers have fully embraced being part of Bravo — and now they’re ready to bring a few fan favorites to their Missouri farm.
“Everyone has been so welcoming and supportive. We’ve really enjoyed it,” eldest son Steven McBee Jr. exclusively told Us Weekly on Thursday, July 10, of switching to Bravo for season 2 of The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys, which premiered last month.
Steven revealed that the Bravo connection is already so strong that they’ve got “six different Bravoleberties” they’re “planning on having up to the farm.”
Steven, who is the eldest of four brothers who all work on McBee Farm & Cattle in Gallatin, Missouri, noted there are a few cast members of The Valley and one Southern Charm star who are on the guest list so far.
“We have Kristen [Doute] and Luke [Broderick]. We have Brittany Cartwright,” Steven shared with Us, referring to celebs from The Valley.
He noted, “[We’re] trying to get Craig Conover” as well from Southern Charm.
Middle brother Jesse McBee teased, “We’re going to have a whole show just over that.”
When it comes to what the Los Angeles and Charleston residents will do during their visit to the farm, the ranchers have a few things in mind.
“We’re going to be riding horses. We’re going to show them how we cook out at the farm,” Steven said. “I’m sure we’re going to put them in a tractor.”
Jesse chimed in to joke, “I was about to say we’ve got to put them to work a little bit.” Steven agreed, adding, “Yeah, they’re going to have to work a little bit.”
Vanderpump Rules viewers will be introduced to some new cast members — and familiar faces — in the spinoff series The Valley. In 2012, fans were introduced to the staff at Lisa Vanderpump’s West Hollywood restaurant SUR, including Stassi Schroeder, Jax Taylor, Kristen Doute, Tom Sandoval, Katie Maloney and Scheana Shay. The cast faced a […]
Steven and Jesse — who run the farm with younger brothers Cole McBee and Brayden McBee after their dad, Steve McBee, started it in the ’90s — are excited to give their fellow Bravo stars a taste of what it’s really like to work from sunup to sundown.
When it comes to the type of Bravo show they’d want to make a cameo on, however, they both went nautical.

“I like the idea of the Below Deck crossover. Working on a yacht would be pretty neat,” Steven said, referring to the franchise that follows deckhands and yacht crews as they go on charters in gorgeous ocean locales.
Jesse joked, “Being from the Midwest, I think that would be fitting.” Steven once again agreed, saying, “It’d be so different but be cool.”
Although Steven and Jesse are up for seemingly anything when it comes to the Bravo universe, for now, fans can catch them on their farm as season 2 continues to air.

During season 1, viewers met the brothers and their father, Steve, as they navigated the ups and downs of a working ranch. When season 2 picked up, Jesse was engaged to Alli Ventresca, whom fans will see him wed later on in the sophomore season. The couple have since welcomed their first baby.
Steven was broken up with his on-again, off-again girlfriend, Calah Jackson, and running the farm after their dad took a hiatus. (Steve pleaded guilty in November 2024 to a multimillion-dollar fraud scam involving crop insurance. His sentencing is scheduled for September.)
Reality TV brings people together with many personalities finding love (or at least a hookup) with other reality TV stars. Bravolebrities, for example, are no strangers to crossover hookups. In August 2019, Southern Charmers Craig Conover, Shep Rose and Austen Kroll visited the cast of Summer House at their Hamptons home. During their visit, which […]
Their brother Cole revealed in the season 2 premiere that his girlfriend, Kacie Adkison, was pregnant with their first baby, whom they welcomed in December 2024. Brayden, meanwhile, remains in the background, choosing not to appear on camera as much.
The biggest change is that the boys’ mom, Kristi McBee, has joined the cast, which Jesse told Us makes it “a little different” for them all.

“We had my dad as kind of the cornerstone in season 1 and my mom as the cornerstone in season 2,” Jesse teased. “So we got a little different advice from her than we did from my dad. So that is an interesting aspect in season 2.”
Steven added, “Whenever we’re around my dad, we tend to be a little bit more wild. And then with my mom, things are a little more settled down and easygoing.”
The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys airs on Bravo Mondays at 9 p.m. ET.
