‘Yellowstone’ Star Ryan Bingham Changing His Name, Removing Connection To Ex-Wife

'Yellowstone' actor and musician, Ryan Bingham, has legally filed to change his name, officially taking out anything to do with his ex-wife.

According to new legal documents, obtained by The Blast, Bingham is asking a judge to change his name from Ryan Axster Bingham, back to his birth name, George Ryan Bingham.

Let us explain.

Obviously, the actor specifically wants to drop the name "Axster" from his name, which is the maiden name of his wife.  Back in 2009, Ryan married Anna Axster, and he legally changed his name from George Ryan Bingham to Ryan Axster Bingham. Fast forward to today, the singer/actor filed is currently going through a divorce in June of last year, and has decided to go back to court and legally change his name.
