Forrie J. Smith, known for his role as Lloyd Pierce on Yellowstone, faced turbulence of a different kind when he was ejected from a flight in Houston, Texas, over a mask-related confrontation. Smith took to social media, alleging discomfort sitting next to a masked passenger.

The Yellowstone actor, known for his outspoken stance against COVID-19 vaccination requirements, reiterated his frustration, citing the incident as another example of overreach.

This incident adds to the ongoing drama surrounding Yellowstone. Reports surfaced of Kevin Costner’s departure from the show’s final season, purportedly due to disputes over availability and salary demands.
