Fans might want to hold their pitchforks, ’cause Hollywood’s favorite villain Neal McDonough doesn’t actually believe Hollywood “turned” on him — he says getting fired back in the day was the best thing to ever happen to him!
TMZ caught up with the “Yellowstone” actor and his wife of more than 2 decades, Ruvé, after he claimed on Wednesday’s “Nothing Left Unsaid” podcast he “lost everything”as a result of being let go from production for ABC’s “Scoundrels” … and then being blacklisted from Hollywood — all for refusing to get intimate with another woman on screen.
He remembered losing material things like houses, plus his “swagger,” during a 2-year professional and personal rough patch following the alleged firing … but he and Ruvé say it was all worth it.
In fact, Ruvé wants to thank Hollywood … ’cause she says everything that happened in years past brought them to their current “blessed” life … guiding them to create their growing production company, encouraging Neal to get sober, allowing them to collaborate on multiple projects and raising a family of aspiring artists.
Ruvé further praised her hubby for taking a stand for his ethics while speaking to TMZ — saying it possibly saved their marriage from eventual ruin — before giving him an adorable kiss for fans to see. How cute!
The dynamic duo says they want their story to inspire others — whether they’re dealing with marital issues, substance abuse struggles or just general doubts — noting anyone can reach their dreams if they keep believing in themselves and a higher power.
And on the topic of family, Ruvé — an actress and producer herself — says her kids are all for their love, and would be totally bothered if Neal did decide to kiss another woman on screen.

We even got a surprise visit from their oldest son, 19-year-old Morgan, who gave a sweet speech confirming what his parents said.
Just check out our clip — he gushes over his famous ‘rents for being “role models” to him and his 4 younger siblings, Clover, London, Catherine and James … adding they’re perfect examples that you can stick to your morals and still find success in the industry.
He also celebrates his parents’ recent onscreen kiss … as you may know, Neal and Ruvé just released their film “The Last Rodeo.” Neal was able to skirt around his no-kissing rule because Ruvé played his onscreen wife!
They tell TMZ they’re certainly not opposed to smooching for the camera again … and again … and again.
