‘To be new at something when you’re almost 40 years old is an interesting feeling,” says Luke Grimes, “Yellowstone” actor — and future country star? Grimes is on Zoom from Nashville, Tenn., where h…
Not that you’ll see any of this on Grimes’ minimal social media presence. “You’re never gonna see my vacation pictures or my lunch on there, ever,” he says, though he knows the move into music may require some posting about show dates. He’s spoken publicly about his pandemic travels in a vintage Airstream with his wife Bianca, a Brazilian model; the couple, who tied the knot in November 2018, rambled around the western half of the country until they found a spot they wanted to call home.
Someone’s gotta do that. I think rural communities need to be represented, too. And I think they’re misrepresented a lot.”him to the set a couple of times, him and my mom, andco-creator]. It was really special to do something heGrimes on his father visiting the set of “Yellowstone” Sheridan, Grimes says, has also prioritized the representation of indigenous people on the show. “We have someone whose job it is to make sure Native American stories are handled right. Mo [actor Mo Brings Plenty], he’s the head of that department. And we couldn’t have a better person doing that. He grew up on a reservation, and has so much respect for the native ways. He makes sure everything is done the right way. He’s one of the best people I’ve ever met in my life.
It’s almost too easy to draw parallels between Grimes and the Dutton scion he plays, but the similarities really are striking: Like Kayce, Grimes went deer hunting with his father from a very young age, a pastime he continues on his sprawling new property. He’s unapologetic about being a hunter. “I’ve had people judge me for it, and they’re eating a cheeseburger. I really don’t understand that,” he says. “Because that animal, especially if it’s a fast food burger, had the worst life ever.
Grimes does make one concession to higher-end style: He swears by the boot brand Burns. “They’re a family-run brand, and they make these beautiful, handmade boots that will last you forever. They’re not cheap, but they’re amazing.” Kayce, meanwhile, wears more blue-collar Ariat cowboy boots. “I feel like he would just go to Boot Barn and get the first thing he saw.”
