The McBee Dynasty star, 31, exclusively tells Us Weekly that while he\u2019s learned valuable lessons from the relationship, he and Eklund have not spoken since their messy public breakup [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cI have a lot of people that care about not only me but my family from the network down to production. We\u2019re treated well. A lot of this online backlash is my own doing,\u201d he said, reflecting on the criticism he received for how he handled his breakup from ex <strong>Allie Ecklund<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Steven and Allie, 29, split in April after he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/celebrity-news\/news\/steven-mcbee-jr-accuses-girlfriend-allie-eklund-of-cheating\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">publicly accused her of infidelity<\/a> at the 2026 Stagecoach Music Festival. Allie denied the allegations and exposed controversial text messages she received from Steven amid the scandal. Steven later apologized for the texts, exclusively telling Us that there was \u201cno excuse or justification\u201d for his actions.<\/p>\n<p>Around the same time, Steven\u2019s ex <strong>Calah Jackson<\/strong>, who was featured on seasons 1 and 2 of the Bravo series, claimed that she experienced \u201cemotional and verbal abuse\u201d during their relationship. (<em>Us<\/em> reached out to Steven for comment at the time.)<\/p>\n<p>During Monday\u2019s podcast, Steven acknowledged that he made a \u201cmistake\u201d in the way he moved quickly in his relationship with Allie, as the pair began living together and discussing marriage weeks into the romance. He had also expressed a desire to give Allie 20 percent of the McBees\u2019 tallow skincare line, as seen on <em>The McBee Dynasty<\/em> season 3.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of this comes back to one person, and a person staring directly in the mirror at me,\u201d he continued on Monday. \u201cI would love to have the opportunity \u2014 a mulligan, I guess you could say \u2014 the chance to show people that I\u2019m not this horrible person. I have anger issues. I\u2019d be the first to admit that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The reality star noted that he\u2019s been in therapy and is still \u201cworking\u201d on himself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have some flaws that I absolutely need to work on. But I am not what so many headlines, what my ex has attempted to make me out to be over the last three months. I would love to have the opportunity to showcase [that],\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>Sharing his hopes for the future of the show, Steven concluded, \u201cYes, there\u2019s a lot of drama in our lives, but 95 [percent] of the time we are as thick as can be, as close as can be and we live a very good life, and I feel like we are a very good family for the most part. And I would love the opportunity to showcase that, and again, learn from my mistakes and learn from where I messed up in the past, and not have a girlfriend on a season.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"news-block\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form  \">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/themes\/us-weekly\/assets\/img\/newsletter-bg-narrow.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"newsletter-form__background background-narrow\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/themes\/us-weekly\/assets\/img\/newsletter-bg-wide.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"newsletter-form__background background-wide\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"newsletter-signup__success\" aria-live=\"polite\">\n<h3>Thank You!<\/h3>\n<p>You have successfully subscribed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Steven\u2019s podcast appearance comes after his mom, <strong>Kristi McBee<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/entertainment\/news\/mcbee-dynastys-kristi-exits-public-eye-amid-smear-campaign\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced her decision to step back<\/a> from the public eye following the end of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/entertainment\/news\/mcbee-dynasty-finale-galyna-fired-steven-and-allie-split\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The McBee Dynasty<\/em> season 3<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy family and I truly appreciate all of the love and support from the ones that have been loyal, kind and have shown grace,\u201d she wrote in the comments section of a video she shared in July. \u201cBetween the relentless smear campaign on Steven from the two ex\u2019s, who can\u2019t seem to move on, and then them going after my daughter-in-law who\u2019s eight months pregnant, on top of the cruelty of a lot of the Bravo audience, I\u2019ve had enough.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kristi, 52, continued, \u201cI never needed this or wanted this and it\u2019s time for my family to enjoy our lives and be out of the public eye.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/entertainment\/news\/steven-mcbee-jr-teases-future-of-the-mcbee-dynasty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Steven McBee Jr. is not shutting the door on The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys \u2014 not yet, at least. \u201cI\u2019m really bad about speaking in superlatives, so, \u2018Always and never,\u2019 right?\u201d Steven, 33, said during the Monday, August 24, episode of Roxanne Bahri and Shantel Butras\u2019 eponymous podcast while discussing his family hinting that [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":259477,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-259476","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259476","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=259476"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259476\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/259477"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=259476"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=259476"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=259476"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
