  • Ree Drummond is a famous blogger and star of Food Network's "The Pioneer Woman."
  • Drummond rose to fame blogging about life on her husband's ranch. 
  • The star's future plans are much bigger than cooking comfort food. 

 

Ree Drummond is one of the biggest personalities in food media in 2017. 

"The Pioneer Woman" is a People magazine cover star. She has a Food Network show, has published seven books, and founded a magazine. And, as of this week, her family is the 23rd largest landowner in the US. 

It's been a winding path that brought "The Pioneer Woman" to fame — and it's not over yet. While Drummond made her name cooking up comfort food, her future plans are much bigger than a blog and Food Network TV show. 

Here's how Ree Drummond became "The Pioneer Woman," and what she's doing next.

Drummond was born in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, an affluent suburb, but moved to Los Angeles to study broadcast journalism at the University of Southern California.

However, her plan to stick to city living fell apart when she met rugged rancher Ladd Drummond, who she calls "Marlboro Man" in her blog.

The couple's love for each other has been a constant on "The Pioneer Woman" since the blog's early days — and any photo of the Marlboro Man is sure to provoke comments of "lucky woman" and heart emojis on social media.
