According to the "Wolves" and "Hallelujah" singer, many of the things you see his character, Walker, wearing during "Yellowstone" come from his very own closet. Ryan Bingham told the Bobby Bones Show in August 2020: "A lot of the clothes I brought myself...Like my hat, and my boots, and my jeans and stuff, some of that stuff I just brought myself."
The cast of "Yellowstone" has constantly praised Bingham for being a total professional and sweetheart to work with, so it's no surprise that he'd go the extra mile of bringing his own outfits to wear. Several actors have described Bingham as being a real cowboy who checks his ego at the door and doesn't show off, despite having excellent roping and riding skills. Bingham told the website Repeat Replay in 2021 that his style is ultimately based on his early travels and growing up in the Southwest. In turn, Bingham's life and outfit choices have been heavily influenced by country, blues, Cajun, jazz, and bluegrass music.
As "Yellowstone" fans know by now, Bingham's character hasn't really been the most likable of the Dutton ranch bunch as of late. The country crooner spoke to Taste of Country in November 2022 about rubbing folks the wrong way on-screen, despite being a favorite off of it. "Definitely, he has his trials and tribulations and things that happen to him on this show that are out of his control," Bingham said, noting how "there's a ton of people that want me to go to the train station for sure." Heading into the second half of Season 5, though, and that still hasn't been the case yet. Episode 9 is expected to pick things back up later this year.
