'Pioneer Woman' Ree Drummond's son loses appeal of driver's license revocation
Bryce Drummond, the 22-year-old son of television personality Ree Drummond, known for her "Pioneer Woman" show and cookbooks, is not getting his driver's license back. The Oklahoma Court of Civil Appeals upheld the driver's license revocation of the younger Drummond, who had it temporarily revoked following a 2024 arrest on suspicion of being in control of a vehicle while intoxicated. A judge dismissed that misdemeanor charge in April, but the arrest triggered a separate civil action that stripped him of his right to drive freely for 180 days. According to court records, Drummond, a college football player at Oklahoma State University, was allowed to continue driving his personal car with an interlock device that prevents a vehicle from operating unless the driver provides a clean breath sample. He was also permitted to drive an employer's vehicle without the device. More: Who is Bryce Drummond?
