Actor Neal McDonough, known for his roles in “Yellowstone” and “Arrow,” reveals that he avoids kiss scenes due to his religious convictions. McDonough says he kisses no one other than his wife.
“I’m not going to kiss anyone else because these lips are for one woman,” he told “Closer Weekly.” The actor has been married to producer Ruve McDonough for 21 years. The couple has five teenage children.
McDonough shared that he was fired from the series “Scoundrels” for refusing to kiss a co-star. “I was surprised. It was a terrible situation for me.”
Neal McDonough describes himself as a devout Christian. “I live by this principle. It’s been difficult for me for a few years.” He only kisses women on screen if his wife is involved in the scene.
In all his work, McDonough explains his conditions for acting: no affectionate touches, kisses, or any other “nonsense” with other women. The actor made his debut as a lead character in the series “The Shift” in 2023.
