Longtime fans of The Pioneer Woman are very familiar with the Wrangler-wearing cowboy she calls her husband. Ree Drummond has been married to Ladd for more than two decades, so most people know the basics: They have the sweetest love story, share four children together, and live on a gorgeous ranch in Pawhuska, Oklahoma.
But theres much more to Ladd than his strong forearms and impressive cattle-herding skills. (He is Rees “greatest love” after all. )
“After much consideration, and weighing all the pros and cons, I have decided that Ill keep him,” Ree jokes.
Read on to find out everything you need to know about Ladd—and what makes him so darn lovable!
And watching movies with Ree.
Ree and her husband do movie night at home at least once a week, with plenty of stovetop popcorn and queso, of course.
“We both have a soft spot for old Westerns, any of The Godfather movies, and cheesy 80s flicks,” Ree says.
But there is one movie Ladd refuses to watch: The Titanic. Whenever Ree has it on, hell walk in and say, “Spoiler alert: the ship sinks!”
Ladd is a “very skilled” skier.
“Ladd and I love Colorado, and weve been going to Vail, his childhood vacation spot, for many years now. It has become such a special place for us and I can never wait to get there,” Ree says.
However, she usually spends her time in the shops (or occasionally at the spa) and leaves the skiing up to Ladd and the kids.
“I avoid skiing with my husband at all costs, but thats another story for another time,” she says.
Ree is probably (read: definitely) referring to when Ladd convinced her to go down a difficult trail and she ended up breaking her ski pole in half. With her body. After that, she learned to “trust Marlboro Man in all situations except ones that involve mountains.” Can you blame her?!
