Warning: This post contains spoilers for Season 5, Episode 13 of Yellowstone.

The final season of Yellowstone is almost over, but there are still many surprises.

Episode 13 featured a cameo from none other than supermodel Bella Hadid as Sadie, the girlfriend of Travis Wheatley, a horse trainer played by series creator Taylor Sheridan.

Hadid, an experienced equestrian herself, makes her first appearance when Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) arrives at Travis’ ranch in Texas and opens the door for Sadie. “Are you the masseuse?” asks the model.

Beth jokes, “Do I look like a masseuse?” To which Sadie replies, “A very expensive one.”

Beth traveled to Texas to oversee the horse auction Travis was hosting and found him playing strip poker with a large group of people at his house. Beth yells at him to go to the arena to meet wealthy buyers waiting for him.

As Beth settles in to watch Travis alongside Sadie in the arena, she tries to figure out what Sadie sees in Travis, whom Beth describes as “the most arrogant man” she’s ever met.

Sadie says, “Have you ever seen him ride?”

After watching him in the ring, Beth replies, “OK, yeah, I understand.”

Beth was so impressed with Travis’ sales skills after he sold a horse for $3 million (including manipulating the process by having his maintenance team act as fake buyers) that she urged him to head to Montana for the Yellowstone auction Ranch the next day.

Sadie makes another appearance on a horse during the Yellowstone Ranch auction. Sadie wears full western gear throughout, including a cowboy hat, a ripped white tank top, blue jeans with an oversized belt buckle, and a flannel shirt that she wears around her waist.

Hadid isn’t the only guest star in the episode. Bart Johnson (Blake Lively’s brother-in-law) tries to hit on Beth at a bar in town while she tries to cheer up Colby’s friend Teeter during a girls’ night out.

There will also be a performance by the band Turnpike Troubadours, who will perform at the Yellowstone Ranch during the live auction.
