Cole Hauser and his wife, Cynthia Daniel, have always prioritized family. Together for over 25 years and married since 2006, the couple share three children: sons Ryland and Colt, and daughter Steely Rose. Though they keep most details private, the pair occasionally shares glimpses into their home life through social media.
In a rare interview with The Havok Journal in July 2022, the Yellowstone star opened up about balancing work and fatherhood. “I’m pretty good about compartmentalizing working and family. They are two of my biggest passions,” he shared. “I’m not the kind of guy who forgets about them. I always make time for each and every one of my children and my wife. As a family, we’re always finding time for each other.” He added, “You have to figure that balance out. But as a father and a husband, you have to make the time and work just as hard at it.

The couple welcomed their first child, Ryland, on September 20, 2004. He spent three years attending Oaks Christian School in California before the family relocated to Florida ahead of his senior year. A dedicated student-athlete, Ryland played multiple positions in football—tight end, wide receiver, and defensive end.
In May 2023, he graduated from Jensen Beach High School, a milestone Daniel celebrated with pride. Despite moving cross-country mid-high school, Ryland thrived. He received offers from several colleges, including Mississippi State, Warner University, and the University of Northern Alabama. He ultimately chose Texas Christian University. Hauser proudly announced the news on Instagram, writing, “Can’t wait to see your next chapter.

Hauser occasionally shares father-son moments with Colt on Instagram, from racing cars at The Thermal Club in California to volunteering together at a VFW event where they cooked and served steaks to veterans. He’s also gone fly-fishing and vacationed across Italy with his family—biking through Tuscany and exploring the Colosseum in Rome.
Steely Rose Hauser, 12
Born on December 16, 2012, Steely Rose is Hauser and Daniel’s youngest child and only daughter. She’s joined her dad both on the red carpet and on the Yellowstone set, where Hauser once captioned a photo of the two, “solo with the love of my life … you are the future, my beautiful.”
Steely has long been a source of joy for the family. From sharing sweet quarantine moments on set to lighting up family photos, she’s often described by her parents as the life of the party. Hauser once called her “as beautiful as the sunset,” while Daniel wrote in a birthday post, “There’s never a dull moment when you’re around. Thanks for keeping us laughing.
