With the most recent season of The McBee Dynasty, viewers are seeing Allie Eklund and Steven McBee Jr.’s play out. After the couple’s breakup, screenshots have appeared on social media discussing Allie’s time on the show. This also comes out following comments made by another cast member.
Allie Eklund & Steven McBee Jr.’s Story Plays Out With The McBee Dynasty‘s Third Season
Eklund is a Texas-based model, entrepreneur, and content creator. She became known to many through her relationship with McBee Dynasty star Steven McBee Jr.
The two confirmed their relationship in early November 2025. However, the two broke up this past April. That said, viewers saw their story play out in the show’s third season, which premiered this past June.
Recently, text messages have leaked that appeared to involve Steven’s mother, Kristi McBee, that claimed that Allie refused to appear on the show for less than $7,000. In a screenshot shared by the All About TRH Podcast on Instagram, a person wrote to a figure identified as “Mom.”
The post appeared to read, “I just calmly told her that was the first and last time I have to negotiate through her manager to get to her. I said I understand this situation is extremely different and hopefully just a one-off. But that I absolutely wasn’t happy with how I met the demands of her manager using whatever leverage I had in the situation (when Allie told me 5-7k was what it would take) and then her manager then decided it was 7-10k and she was gonna walk.”
The message then continued, “I then went through what everyone else, including the [Secret Lives of Mormon Wives] are making per episode and how it’s actually unprecedented for her to make that much on a season [one] of filming. And that it truly was only due to my leverage [and] an absolute fit I threw that we got her there, and that I felt disrespected to get her to that rate only for her manager to then move the target to 7-10k.” The person continued, “She completely understood.”
The Outlet Connected The Screenshot To Previous Comments Made By Kristi McBee
After the person noted that it was only a “minor difference,” they revealed that they offered to cut their own paycheck to satisfy Allie’s request. They continued, “I would cut my own payroll to give to Allie to make this work but it’s the principle yet again that they haven’t moved any. And the show would be better with her on it.”
“Mom” then shared, “I was going to say the same thing. That bud I would cut my take from the show for them to give it to her. Don’t do that with yours. They can take it from me. Just don’t tell her that because she would never want them to do that but I totally would. But let’s see what they come back with before we tell them to redo that with my contract!”
The outlet noted that Allie appeared to ask to be paid more than Galyna, Kacie, and “Mama McBee.” It was also noted that this came out after Kristi made comments referring to Allie as a “paid actress.”
