The McBee Dynasty’s Galyna Saltkovska Sends Encouragement to Steve McBee Before Prison Sentence

The McBee Dynasty’s Galyna Saltkovska is sending her support to Steve McBee Sr. before his prison sentence begins.

“Hey Steve McBee. I’m here in Liberty, Missouri, at the very first site we broke ground on in 2019,” Saltkovska, 48, shared in an Instagram video posted Monday, December 1. “I just want to let you know I’m sending you good vibes and good luck. I know you got it. And we got it here as you can see.”

In the background of the video, viewers could see plenty of snow at a McBee’s Coffee n Carwash location as vehicles were parked nearby.

“Plenty of snow, so we’re going to have very busy days ahead,” she added. “We will see you back here before you know it.”

Saltkovska’s post caught the attention of Steve’s son Steven McBee Jr., who expressed optimism about the future ahead.

“We will get these businesses cranking and things moving in the right direction!” he wrote in the comments section. “A lot of tough days ahead, but we’ve got it.”

Steve, 52, is expected to begin serving a 24-month sentence on Monday after pleading guilty to one count of federal crop insurance fraud. He was also sentenced in October to serve two years of supervised release and must pay back $4,022,124 in restitution.

Before beginning his sentence, the Bravo star said he was hoping to savor family time while preparing for his new reality.

“I always cook very large meals for everybody, so everybody’s coming to my house, even my brothers and sister and extended family,” he told People in an interview published Saturday, November 29. “I’m going to smoke a prime rib on the Traeger [grill] and then cook the turkey.”

“I don’t want anybody to be sad,” Steve continued. “I want everyone to be upbeat. Everything’s going to be good. I’ve skipped a lot of family vacations because of work — and, looking back, I shouldn’t have — but I’ve never really taken any kind of extended vacation. So, I guess I’m finally getting a sabbatical, right?”

Steve’s positivity appeared to have spread throughout the family. While attending BravoCon 2025 in Las Vegas last month, many of Steve’s children expressed optimism about the future.

“We’ve been trying to spend as much time as we can with him before he leaves, but we’re gonna work through this together,” Cole McBee exclusively shared with Us Weekly on November 14. “It’s a tough position in our life, but we’re going to get through anything.”

Bravo’s McBee Dynasty, which aims to immerse viewers in the ongoing saga of the McBee family as they strive to rescue their farm and cattle ranch from financial ruin, was recently renewed for season 3.

It’s unclear how much of Steve’s prison sentence will be featured on the show.

“He’s one of the most optimistic, positive people you’ve ever met,” Cole, 33, told Us. “I think that’s kept us sane going through all this. He says, ‘Hey, you guys are gonna get through this no matter what happens. We’re going to work through it.’ He tells us that every morning and every day, he’s like, ‘I’m going to be OK. It’s up to you guys.’”
