‘Yellowstone’ Actor Neal McDonough Claims Hollywood ‘Turned’ On Him For Strange Reason

Integrity is a funny thing…

You either have it or you don’t, and Neal McDonough definitely has it.

McDonough has long been one of my favorite actors, but if you haven’t seen him much recently this might be why:

Here are more details on the blacklisting, from the NY Post:

Neal McDonough has had an up and down experience in Hollywood. The “Suits” alum, 59, explained on the “Nothing Left Unsaid” podcast this week how his career once fell apart because he refuses to kiss his co-stars.

“I’d always had in my contracts that I wouldn’t kiss another woman on screen,” McDonough told hosts Tim Green and Troy Green.

“My wife didn’t have any problem with it. It was me, really, who had a problem with it,” the actor said. “I was like, ‘Yeah, I don’t want to put you through it. I know we’re gonna start having kids,’ and I didn’t wanna put my kids through it.”

The “Desperate Housewives” star continued, “Intimacy is a whole different thing for me. When I wouldn’t do it and they couldn’t understand it, Hollywood just completely turned on me and they wouldn’t let me be part of the show anymore.”

McDonough has been married to South African model Ruvé Robertson since 2003 and they have five children together.

He didn’t name the show he was allegedly fired from, but back in 2019, he told Closer Weekly that he lost his job on the ABC drama series “Scoundrels” in 2010 because of his no-sex-scene rule.

“It was a horrible situation for me,” he said at the time. “After that, I couldn’t get a job because everybody thought I was this religious zealot. I am very religious. I put God and family first, and me second. That’s what I live by. It was hard for a few years.”

On the podcast, McDonough said that he was unemployed for two years after the firing.

“I couldn’t get a job and I lost everything you could possibly imagine,” he shared. “Not just houses, material things, but your swagger, your cool, who you are, your identity, everything. My identity was an actor, and a really good one, and once you don’t have that identity, you’re kind of in a tailspin. And I was in a big, ugly tailspin for a couple of years.”

Stand up guy!

Christian Actor Neal McDonough: “Beacon of Light” Gold Company Can Be Trusted in These Crazy Times

Bible-believing Christians and those who are concerned about the economic future of America have the consensus view that strange times are ahead. Even with fiscal spirits raised by the election of President Donald J. Trump, geopolitical turmoil continues to threaten the markets.

Physical precious metals like gold and silver continue to draw Americans to them even as price records are being broken every week.

Christian actor Neal McDonough said, "In a world full of uncertainties, Genesis Gold Group has been a beacon of light for me and my family. That is why they have my complete confidence and faith."

With recent movies that highlight the uncertainty of today's world, including "Homestead" by Angel Studio that tells of the aftermath of a nuclear attack, McDonough has built a reputation of being acutely aware of end times scenarios. His work with Genesis was recently highlighted during an ad he cut with fellow Christian actor Dean Cain.

Faith Before Finances

"For the love of money is the root of all evil..."

1 Timothy 6:10 is often misquoted to say that money itself is the root of all evil. This isn't true. We can take the necessary actions in our lives to secure our futures and support our families without falling into a life driven by the acquisition of material things.

This is why Genesis Gold Group is very different from other precious metals companies. Their adherence to financial stewardship as it aligns with faithful stewardship can be understood with their free, world class Wealth Protection Guide.

But not all of their clients are Bible-believing Christians. Some turn to Genesis because they have demonstrated an uncanny integrity that is rare in the cutthroat business of precious metals.

Unlike other companies in the industry, Genesis Gold Group does not promise "bonus" or "free" silver to their clients. Such offers are disingenuous; these companies don't have so much extra silver that they can send out thousands of dollars worth to people who pay their $199 service fee. The math doesn't add up, which is why even non-believers appreciate the straight-forward and transparent process that Genesis Gold Group facilities for its clients.
