Fans can expect a drama packed second season of The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys.
According to a press release shared in May 2025, “the stakes couldn’t be higher” for season 2 due to oldest brother Steven McBee Jr. being left in charge of the McBee family farm during harvest season. If McBee Jr. doesn’t make enough during harvest, the farm has a high risk of being foreclosed.
“With Steven’s relationship with Calah [Jackson] on the rocks, Jesse [McBee’s] anxiety around marrying Alli [Ventresca] and Cole [McBee] buckling under the pressure of becoming a father with pregnant girlfriend Kacie [Adkison], these young men find themselves attempting to salvage their relationships and save the farm at the same time,” the press release read.
Ultimately, the boy’s mother, Kristi McBee, has to step in when the FBI threatens to take down their business.
Season 1 of the Bravo reality series, which aired in March 2024, followed a family of cowboys in small-town Missouri as they navigated their financial and familial challenges on their farm.

Where Did ‘The McBee Dynasty’ Season 1 Leave Off?
Steve McBee Sr. left the family farm and his sons during the season 1 finale due to needing a break from the pressure. That left his son, Steven Jr., in charge of managing the farm, leading to tensions with his brother, Cole, who felt he was more deserving.
Shortly after the season ended, Steve Sr. pled guilty to participating in a massive insurance fraud scheme. He was charged with one count of federal crop insurance fraud, according to a press release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office Western District of Missouri in November 2024. The McBee Farming Operations owner, who waived his right to a grand jury, allegedly received insurance benefits he was not authorized to get.
The DOJ also claimed that Steve Sr. committed additional fraud in 2019 and 2020 including obtaining insurance for his soybean crop after “misrepresenting” that the vegetables were “the first crop in certain fields,” but allegedly using the space to grow wheat as well. (By choosing to double crop, Steve Sr. was “not entitled” to the claim.)
As part of the plea arrangement, Steve Sr. was ordered to pay restitution, which will be determined by the court in September 2025. The family patriarch, who pled guilty to the charges, is also facing up to 30 years in federal prison without parole.
The cast of season 2 includes Steven Jr., his on-and-off girlfriend, Calah, as well as Cole, his girlfriend, Kacie, Jesse, his fiancé, Alli, Steven Jr., Cole, Jesse and Brayden McBee’s mom, Kristi, Steve Sr.’s ex Galyna Saltkovska and Brayden. Steve Sr. will not be on the show due to his ongoing legal battle.
What Is ‘The McBee Dynasty’ Season 2 About?
According to the press release, fans can expect to see Steven Jr. taking charge of the family farm amid dealing with his relationship struggles with Calah. Calah’s “tumultuous relationship with Steven Jr. leaves her feeling like an outsider in a family she’s desperately tried to fit into” and she “must make a choice to fight for her place in the family or leave it all behind.”
Meanwhile, Cole “is trying to shed his reckless past and outshine his brother Steven Jr. to be the one leading the farm.”
“As the pressure increases, the temptation to fall back into old habits threatens everything he’s worked to build,” the press release read, noting that his pregnant girlfriend, Kacie, needs to decide whether “to trust him wholeheartedly or protect herself and walk away.”
Similar to Steven Jr. and Cole, Jesse is also dealing with his own relationship issues as he prepares to marry Alli, his high school sweetheart, and is dealing with the finality of it and issues regarding a prenup.
Due to their son’s own drama, Kristi ultimately has to take charge of the family farm — and also finally confronts Galyna, who she holds responsible for tearing her marriage apart to Steve Sr. (The twosome were married for 28 years before divorcing in 2019.)
Galyna is met with her own relationship issues when she learns that her ex Steve Sr. has been seeing her good friend behind her back.
Is There a ‘The McBee Dynasty’ Season 2 Trailer?
The show’s trailer, released in May 2025, shows how the brothers will put their relationships on the line to save the farm.
“My loyalty lies with my family and on this farm and ranch,” Steven Jr. shares. “I would defend that until the day I die.”
In another scene, the brothers discuss Jesse’s upcoming wedding to Alli — and how they believe he needs a prenup.
“If there’s not a prenup, you can’t have your name on the farm,” Steven Jr. explains before Jesse says, “Draw one up.”
The trailer then shows the struggle that the farm is facing financially.
“That deal really put us in a bind,” Steven Jr. says, with Cole adding, “We own a quarter of this farm too whether you like it or not.”
Steven Jr. later tells Kristi that they need six million dollars to “pay payments.”
Meanwhile, Galyna learns that Steve Sr. moved her out to move in with her other friend. Viewers then see Galyna smashing the window of a car — and later in handcuffs.
After seeing snapshots of the brothers’ strained relationships with their respective partners, the trailer ends with Steven Jr. telling them that they’ve been “under FBI investigation.”
“There may be prison time involved,” he explains.
When Does ‘The McBee Dynasty’ Season 2 Premiere?Season 2 premieres on Bravo Monday, June 30, at 9 p.m. ET. Episodes will also be available the next day on Peacock.
