below deck sailing yacht season 1 episode 12 guests

Is This Fashion Blogger Trying to Ruin Adam’s ‘Below Deck Sailing Yacht’ Boat-Mance?

Updated June 5 2020, 1:08 p.m. ET

You always know you can count on episodes of Below Deck Sailing Yacht to be filled with all kinds of drama. Most of the time, the drama focuses on what’s going on between the sailing yacht’s crew members, but every once in a while, a charter guest adds to the drama in a big way.

Such is the case in some recent episodes of the show which feature fashion blogger Lyndi Kennedy . She definitely appears to be flirting with Chef Adam in plain sight of her boyfriend — what’s the deal with that? As it turns out, the drama might not be quite as intense as the show has led us to believe.

Lyndi’s appearance on ‘Below Deck Sailing Yacht’ is definitely turning heads.

In Season 1, Episode 12 of Below Deck Sailing Yacht (which aired on April 20, 2020), a group of social media influencers (including fashion blogger Lyndi Kennedy) come aboard as charter guests. It doesn’t take long for things to get super awkward. Even though Lyndi’s boyfriend Jesse is also onboard as a guest, Lyndi starts flirting with Chef Adam — and she’s not subtle about it at all.

Naturally, Chief Stew Jenna MacGillivray — who happens to be dating Chef Adam — isn’t a huge fan of Lyndi's flirtation, and neither is Jesse. He snaps at her angrily and tells her that if she’s interested in someone else, she should tell him now. In a preview for the April 27 episode , we see Lyndi and a friend insist on visiting the galley to talk with Adam privately. Again, Jenna seems pretty irritated, and Lyndi’s boyfriend looks angry, too. 

Lyndi recently posted on Instagram about her ‘Below Deck Sailing Yacht’ experience.

Anyone who’s worried that Lyndi might break up Jenna and Adam’s boat-mance can go ahead and relax — Lyndi did not leave her boyfriend for Chef Adam. In fact, according to her, Jesse wasn’t even technically her boyfriend at the time of filming. In a comment on a recent Instagram post , she says that the two had broken up but decided to go ahead with filming their episodes of Below Deck Sailing Yacht anyway. 

“Luckily I got outta that relationship. It wasn’t staged, but after breaking up for 2 months I gave him one more chance and we did this show, but we weren’t back together,” she said. “I have very good reasons to be upset with him and completely done with him by the time we landed in Greece — I wanted to go home. But he convinced me he would act differently — then cameras roll and he’s again controlling and possessive and manipulative — trying to portray something on camera that wasn’t true.”

“I am not fake, I cannot pretend to be in love when I’m not and I’m frustrated with this person, I wear my heart on my sleeve. My friends and fam and myself know the real situation and that’s all that matters.”

Does Lyndi Kennedy have a husband?

A quick scroll through Lyndi Kennedy’s Instagram account reveals that Lyndi is dating someone else — a man named Brian, or @thelordofbeauty on Instagram. Lyndi says the episodes of Below Deck Sailing Yacht she appears in were filmed way back in June of 2019, and that her life is totally different now. She also says that she and Brian are watching the show together, and discussing it is making them feel even stronger in their relationship.

Lyndi and Brian are not married, but Lyndi has been married in the past. She and her husband had three kids together, though they are now divorced. A recent Instagram post shows Brian getting down on one knee and “proposing” to her, but Lyndi clarified in the comment section that the video was filmed as a joke for her friends and family, and the two are not actually engaged. Not yet, anyway!

New episodes of Below Deck Sailing Yacht air Mondays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.

Below Deck: 8 Charter Guests With The Worst Attitudes

Below deck: everything to know about charter guest erica rose, 1000-lb sisters star amy slaton arrested for this scandalous reason after extraordinary weight loss milestone.

• Barrie & Tony Drewitt Barlow were memorable guests on Below Deck Sailing Yacht due to their fascinating background.
• Barrie had a romantic relationship with his daughter's ex, causing awkward tension on the yacht.
• Since their appearance, Barrie is still active on social media while Tony has stepped away from the spotlight.

Barrie and Tony Drewitt Barlow were Below Deck Sailing Yacht charter guests for two seasons, and there's a lot of curiosity regarding their lives outside the show. They have a fascinating background that impacted United Kingdom history but also had awkward drama on one of the best reality TV shows on TV. Thanks to these contrasting elements, these guests were memorable additions to the series. Episodes featuring the Below Deck Sailing Yacht charter guests showed a different sort of trouble in paradise.

Barrie and Tony's kids turned out to be very fussy eaters. Chef Natasha De Bourg , who said she's often underestimated because she is pretty, had trouble serving the large family due to all the requests. This strained her relationship with Chief Stew Daisy Kelliher. It also didn't help that Barrie was in a relationship with his daughter Saffron Drewitt Barlow's ex, Scott, and welcomed another child into their relationship. His marriage with Tony ended as he was having an affair with his daughter's ex. Traveling on a yacht with the family proved to be awkward as Scott was there with them.

Some charter guests have made outrageous demands from the Below Deck crew while on the yacht. One of the guests has even taken their tips back.

Barrie & Tony Were Fascinating Below Deck Sailing Yacht Guests

Barrie and Tony were the first couple officially recognized as gay dads in the U.K.

Barrie and Tony from the Below Deck franchise are a landmark couple. After a law was passed that legitimized LGBTQ+ marriage, they were the first couple officially recognized as gay dads in the U.K . They have five children, and the former reality stars started their parenthood journey by having a set of twins who were conceived with a surrogate mother in Los Angeles. During that time, gay men generally didn't pursue this avenue, and adoption systems had ingrained biases against LGBTQ+ couples. Joining forces with a surrogate mother helped to set a precedent for other people who wanted to go the same route.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht's Tony & Barrie's Family Kept Growing

While the couple from Below Deck Sailing Yacht decided to sail through Croatia on the nautical reality series, they eventually stopped being romantic partners, but their separation was amicable. They maintain that their relationship became friendly rather than romantic. The two chose to focus on being good parents. Barrie is with his daughter's ex, and Saffron has stated that she would rather not know the details of their romance, as Barrie has no filter . Barrie has admitted that it's weird how he has fallen for someone half his age. Nonetheless, they're all maintaining relationships with one another.

Barrie and Scott's youngest, a daughter named Valentina Willow Drewitt-Barlow, was born in October 2020. Tony had throat cancer in the early 2000s. Unfortunately, it returned in 2018. During his treatment, Tony fell for a nurse named Brent, who is significantly younger than him and a very devoted partner. Part of the reason he signed on as a Below Deck Sailing Yacht charter guest was due to Tony wanting to spend every precious moment with his family, including his ex, Barrie.

What Are Barrie & Tony Drewitt Barlow Up To Now?

Since appearing on Below Deck Sailing Yacht , Barrie and Tony have stepped away from the spotlight . Tony has decided to put his Instagram on private, restricting Below Deck fans from viewing his content. However, his profile photo is still an image of him and his partner Brent, who was Tony's nurse when he was diagnosed with cancer many years ago. It seems the couple's relationship is still going strong. Nonetheless, Tony still has a link in his bio, leading to his family website. Even though Tony has stepped away from fame , he still wants to support his family.

As for Barrie, he's still enjoying the limelight while he can. Unlike his ex-partner Tony, Barrie is very active on social media, which is evident by his followers. Barrie has over 145,000 followers, while Tony has just over 5,000 . However, despite Tony loving the fame, his social media mainly focuses on his family. His most recent post is from April 28, and it's a carousal of him and his partner Scott's youngest son, who is super adorable. The image before that was from April 21, and it's of Barrie's art along with Scott and his daughter Valentina featured.

He wrote in the caption, " when you walk into an exhibition and you DON'T let your children know that you are one of the featured paintings ." It seems after appearing on Below Deck Sailing Yacht , Barrie has started an art career . His work is very impressive and Barrie seems proud of what he's accomplished.

Barrie also addressed a troll who called out his poor behavior on the show. In an early March post, someone called out Barrie and his behavior on Below Deck Sailing Yacht . Barrie addressed it saying, " It’s a reality show, with 30 cast members all fighting for air-time ." Barrie even revealed that he and Chef Natasha are great friends following the seasons.

Barrie and Tony were one of the most memorable guests on Below Deck Sailing Yacht . While they caused a lot of drama, their family made their three-episode arch entertaining. Since Barrie and Tony's appearance, the Below Deck franchise hasn't seen a more entertaining charter guest. Here's hoping they return for another sail with Captain Glenn Shephard and his crew.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht is now streaming on Peacock.

‘Below Deck’ Charter Guests Break Silence On Low Tip Controversy

The charter guests of Below Deck Sailing Yacht are speaking out about that low tip. In the Monday, March 14, episode, the notorious charter guests only tipped $6,500, which is the lowest in the show’s history. The charter guests are already making history for all the wrong reasons. Fans called them the worst charter guests in Below Deck history.

Erica Rose returned with her mom, Cindi Rae Rose, and her husband, Charles Sanders. Chief stew Daisy Kelliher was not excited about her returning, and the two have been in a war of words ever since. In fact, the charter guests haven’t stopped talking about their time on the yacht.

Erica Rose explains the reason for the low tip

Erica made an appearance on the Another Below Deck podcast . She explained that her fellow guests refused to contribute to their tip. The group knew they were responsible for the tip. While they were aware of the rules, they didn’t want to tip the hard-working crew members.

“The whole group is responsible for tipping. We had to pick up the slack for everyone else because no one else tipped.”

As Below Deck Sailing Yacht fans know, the crew busted their behinds to make the charter guests happy. In a previous episode, Erica’s husband Charles received backlash for calling the food “disgusting” and that he had better at a “ballpark.” He claims that producers told him to call out Chef Marco Spaziani’s food.

The couple said that all of the guests had to contribute to the tip. If that were the case, that would’ve brought the tip to $25,000. She claims they had a serious conversation about the tip before leaving the boat. Yet, her former friends have a different story as well as the proof.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 3 crew got the worst tip in history

Both Erica and Charles got called out for their lies. Per Monsters & Critics , fellow charter guests Rhett and Janelle Flatt said they have proof of a conversation she had with Erica. Janelle took to her Instagram account to share screenshots of their text message exchange. She claims that Erica lied about the tip.

In the text message exchange, Janelle asked Erica how much they should tip the crew. Erica responded, “Our price includes tip! We can bring cash and tip extra if we want. I over tipped last time. I think prices is ($) 5000/ per person including tip!! Not per couple. [SIC].”

Erica also seemingly wrote, “So it’s like ($) 3,000 per person, the $900 required tip and then ($)1,100 airfare is how it comes out to $5,000.”

Rhett became the hero of the show when he called out Charles for slamming the food. In another scene at their beach lunch, Charles called Janelle a “b***,” Rhett approached him and threatened to punch him out. Many Below Deck Sailing Yacht fans praised him for it. Janelle had more to say on Instagram and said they were never friends of Erica and Charles.

Janelle is a hairstylist and Erica was one of her clients. Erica invited her to the yacht trip, and of course, she wanted to go. But the moment they left the yacht, she fired Erica. The two are no longer speaking.

What are your thoughts on the tip? Do you agree that it’s the worst in the show’s history? Sound off below in the comment section. Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 3 airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET, on Bravo.

Haha, sure. You understand that no one believes your made up story.

Not just the worst guests, Charles, Erica, and Cindi are horrible humans. However, producers do pull people aside and give directions for story line. Charles may be telling the truth about that one thing, especially since he praised the dinner at first. Best dinner he ever had, apparently. I wish producers would stop. It doesn’t have to be drama all the time!!!

The most classless was LaQuisah from episode 13 season 10. She requested gold steak. She was a pain in the a– 7 a HUGE glutton. You can tell that she eats at Popeyes, and Red Lobster, and would take all the shrimp even if she didn’t eat it.

Here’s What the Cast of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Is Currently Up to Now

Are Jenna and Adam still together?

After the massive success of Below Deck and its spinoff Below Deck Med , Bravo decided to test the waters on a new iteration of its hit series earlier this year. That's where Below Deck: Sailing Yacht came in, taking place on a luxury sailing boat, the Parsifal III, adrift in the Ionian Sea.

From a spontaneous proposal failing spectacularly to a joke about being breastfed as an adult, Sailing Yacht was as much a dramatic success as the other franchises. It also left fans wondering about what's happening to the crew since the show wrapped. Did chief stew Jenna and chef Adam stay together? What's going on with Georgia's music? And most important—is Captain Glenn really as cool as we think he is?

Here's what the cast of Below Deck: Sailing Yacht is up to now:

Jenna MacGillivray

When the Canadian stepped onto the Parsifal III, fans got exactly what they hoped for in a chief stew—a no-nonsense leader who also had a romantic spot in her heart for the chef in the galley. Though her relationship with Adam Glick proved to be tumultuous, the two dated for some time after the season wrapped, even taking some time to road-trip together.

These days, Jenna is enjoying some time off from yachting, but given her recent IG pics, she's excited to come back to another charter season.

Madison Stalker

Wherever Madison went, drama always seemed to follow the second stew during season one of Below Deck: Sailing Yacht . In between epic meltdowns (including a major one between her and Jenna over her lack of enthusiasm for her job), she left the boat a better person and leaving fans ready to see more from their new favorite cast member.

Judging by her Instagram account, she's taken a break from yachting (perhaps until next season of the show).

Georgia Grobler

As good of a third stew Georgia was on deck, fans were more invested in her budding music career and growing feelings for a very taken Paget. She proved she was great at her job and could make a career out of yachting.

While it's unclear whether she stayed in the yachting industry post- Sailing Yacht , Georgia's working on music, premiering new music videos on IGTV during the quarantine.

Below Deck Med fans were so excited when Adam joined the crew as the chef for Sailing Yacht . While he abided by the preference sheets this time around, he also began a rocky romance with chief stew Jenna, making most of the crew members wonder if he was there for his job or the girl.

Since the show wrapped, Adam's busy onshore, cooking, and traveling with his adorable puppy. Oh, and Adam has a web series, Stoked , where he travels across the country to meet with local chefs and learn about their regions... all while over a campfire.

Paget Berry and Ciara Duggan

If there was any couple to root for from the entire Below Deck franchise, it's Paget and Ciara. The duo made a great team on deck, and mostly kept their relationship to a minimum on cameras—a first for Bravo! As they were the most familiar with the Parsifal III, the couple was the most reliable, and fans loved seeing their relationship continue blossoming post-filming.

These days, the couple has a lot to be excited about—they're now engaged. While they're soaking up their romantic bliss, they're also still working in yachting, although it's sadly on separate boats.

Byron Hissey

As the chief engineer of Parsifal III, Byron was clearly there to just do his job. But, given how he was the only cast member to have a wife and child back home, he also became the dad of the group, taking care of the other crew members.

Since filming wrapped, it looks like Byron is back on a boat doing exactly what he does best—fixing and making sure the engines run smoothly.

Parker McCown

Relatively new to the yachting industry, fans are more likely to remember the deckhand for his enraged rant about being breastfed by his mother. While he didn't necessarily have all the skills to make it as a deckhand, he definitely had a soft spot for his ex-girlfriend Kaiti, whom he eventually left Parsifal III to go back to at home.

It looks like the decision to leave the show worked out for Parker, as he's now engaged to Kaiti and writing some tunes while onshore.

Chris Miller

As Parker's replacement for the latter half of the season, Chris proved a great deckhand and an asset to the team, all while battling an injury.

These days, Chris seems to be taking some time off from yachting to travel across Europe.

Captain Glenn Sheppard

Captain Glenn was tough, fair, and not afraid to have a good time, which both crew and guests very much appreciated.

Thankfully, his reality TV experience hasn't turned him off yachting forever. Glenn is still the captain for Parsifal III and traveling through the Mediterranean.

A Look Back at the Rudest Guests in 'Below Deck' History

W hile there is no denying there are high expectations when you book a yacht vacation, some of the guests featured on the Bravo franchise Below Deck crossed the line and were just plain rude to the crew.

From accusing the staff of not providing the right cutlery to outright offensive comments, the rudest guests in Below Deck history truly went viral for all the wrong reasons.

Let's take a look back at the guests who will not be allowed back on a charter, and where they are now. Hopefully, they have learned some manners (but we are not holding our breath).

5. Jill Zarin on 'Below Deck' Season 11, Episode 9

Despite not being the primary on the charter, former RHONY member Jill Zarin did not hold back when it came to giving her unsolicited advice to the crew on Below Deck.

From bringing her own Diet Coke to her super specific preference sheet (she requested chocolate chip cookies every day at 3 p.m.), Jill was the definition of high maintenance.

However, she defended her behavior on Jeff Lewis Live.

"What they said I was the worst guest in the world for is absolutely ridiculous because everything I said was yes, a teaching moment for them," she said. "Everything I gave was a suggestion in a very nice and loving way."

She also revealed that she added $6,000 to the tip, which makes up for her behavior (just a little bit).

4. Butter Knife Expert on 'Below Deck Med' Season 9, Episode 11

Was it a butter knife or a fish knife? That was the debate on Season 9 of Below Deck Mediterranean between Chief Stew Aesha Scott and guest Neysla Paltsev, who also happens to be an etiquette coach.

After Aesha reassured her she had a fish knife, Neysla went on to insult the crew, telling Aesha the "caviar service sucked."

Neysla and her group's rude behavior also prompted Captain Sandy Yawn to give a lecture and let them know she has canceled a guest's million euro charter over rude behavior.

Following the episode, Neysla apologized during an Instagram Live , saying, "The dinner was definitely not my best moment and I should not have handled it the way I did. I was emotional and I couldn’t reel it back in. It wasn’t nice at all and for that I am really sorry about that."

3. The guests who refused to pack on 'Below Deck Sailing' Season 3, Episode 12

The third season of Below Deck Sailing introduced viewers to primary Dr. Nichols and her group of friends, who not only left their rooms super messy but they refused to pack their own suitcases.

However, they did leave a hefty tip of $20,000 for the crew.

2. "Oyster Boy" on 'Below Deck' Season 5, Episode 5

You don't mess with Hannah Ferrier and one guest learned this the hard way. On Season 5 of Below Deck, primary charter guest Leon Glore was adamant he requested oysters on his preference sheet, prompting Hannah to prove him wrong.

But not before calling him an "outright a--hole."

1. "Chicken is for poor people" on 'Below Deck' Season 6, Episode 11

And the top spot goes to Kari Klein, who could not fathom eating chicken on a yacht.

"Chicken is what poor people eat," the guest said between laughs. While no one is denying that chicken may have not been the best choice for Chef Adrian to prepare, the guests did not stipulate it on their preference sheet — and offensive comments are never OK.

Below Deck Mediterranean Recap: Ellie’s Ego

Below deck mediterranean.

Watching Below Deck Mediterranean on Labor Day feels both right and wrong. Right: We’re celebrating the crew’s labor. Wrong: We’re feasting on the drama of workers not getting along with each other when they’d be better off allying together against their employers to win better working conditions. I’m looking specifically at you, Ellie. The second stew is taking the hiring of a new stew as a personal offense. This week, I’ve seen a lot of discussion about what makes someone not a girls’ girl — TikTok’s Halley vs. Sophia scandal, The Bachelorette ’s Kaitlyn Bristowe’s comments (allegedly) about dating Tayshia Adams’s ex — and I shudder to think which side of these feuds Ellie would take. The girl could use a friend, but this late into the charter season, the alliances — er, best friendships — have firmed up: Aesha/Gael, Nathan/Joe, and Bri/Jono are all solid pairs, leaving Ellie and Iain confidante-less. It’d be perfect if new stew Carrie slotted in as a much-needed friend to Ellie, but of course that won’t be the case.

Carrie arrives just in time for a crew night out, toting that tie-dye tote bag that shouts, “I spent too much money at Alo.” Not only is the bag deep, but so is Carrie’s experience. She’s been in yachting for eight years and has even been a chief stew, which makes her knots more experienced than Ellie and Bri. Carrie knows mixology, loves laundry, and is happy to help out wherever she can as a floater. The Scottish stew makes a good first impression, but not on Ellie — she jokes that Ellie needs a pole to go with her stripper heels, and Ellie does not like that. I don’t appreciate her implied shaming of sex work when they are, in fact, clear, sky-high heels that she struggles to walk in.

As the crew heads to dinner, Joe tells Carrie, “All you gotta know is that Nathan’s in a relationship.” If we were in court, I’d say he’s withholding evidence. Joe flirts with Carrie right away, much to Ellie and Bri’s chagrin. Carrie flirts a little back, teaching him some Scottish dancing, but she keeps things tame compared to her predecessors. Carrie’s more focused on striking up a friendship with Aesha, who likes her immediately. Aesha feels for her because she joined mid-charter herself in season five . The two bond over not-sexy dancing, something Ellie definitely does.

Ellie may be bitter, but Nathan is having a truly terrible night. Earlier, he got a text with the news that his friend passed away from cancer, and he doesn’t tell anyone, quietly drinking his sorrows. Gael can tell he’s not okay, but in the car back to the boat, he turns mean, which prompts Aesha to climb into the back seat between Nathan and Gael. Now that is what a girls’ girl does. Gael asks again what’s wrong, and he finally tells her about his friend, crying. Gael encourages him not to be afraid to show his sensitive side. Nathan tells us his family doesn’t talk about tough stuff, and he doesn’t want to repeat their patterns. Back on the boat, Aesha tells Joe what happened and that he needs to support Nathan. Joe’s late-night pep talk isn’t the best, but it’s nice to see that their friendship can have depth to it. Early in the morning, Gael joins Nathan on his top bunk. It’s unclear if they’re doing more than cuddling, but based on how annoyed Joe looks in the bottom bunk and how he behaves later, I don’t think he’s that cool with it. As lead deckhand on a mini power trip, he calls out Gael’s squeegeeing and watches her clean like a hawk. The man doesn’t know how else to express that he’s jealous of Nathan’s thinking of joining Gael’s trip around the Greek islands after the season. Being there for someone through a loss is a big step in a relationship, but I don’t know yet if the couple can get serious without Aesha’s prodding.

Like Joe, Ellie is clinging to the hierarchy. She asks Aesha if she can learn more about being a chief stew during the last few charters because she hopes to be one on a small boat after the season. Aesha kindly shuts this down by advising Ellie to just keep getting experience. Instead of getting to shadow Aesha or learn about placing provisioning orders, Ellie is stuck showing Carrie around the boat. Aesha was totally fair here; a new member’s first day is definitely not the time to be asking for vague lessons. Ellie turns her ambitions toward an influencer career path, as the producers throw in a clip of her watching a video about branded partnerships on her break. I have to laugh at this, which is basically the same as someone on a dating show saying, “You’re not here for the right reasons.”

Can you believe there are still laundry problems? Me neither. I wish I didn’t have to write about this for the thousandth time. Alas, my job is to recap, and like Carrie, I want to uphold my reputation as a hard worker. Joe is down to one smelly polo, covering for Bri, who lost his second one. Perhaps now that he has a new romantic interest he wants to smell good for, he asks Aesha if she can track down his polo. She finds it in Iain’s room and is surprised the other crew members have been covering up for Bri. Aesha tries to stay positive when talking to Bri because she wants to finish the season with four stews and knows Bri is trying. Sandy feels similarly, priding herself on not firing entry level stews. We get a montage of past stews not knowing how to do the job. You may think you’re long past that reality TV stint years ago, and then Bravo will throw you into a montage, cruelly reminding us of when the show felt fresher. Bri suggests changing to a color-coded beads system because reading names on tags isn’t working for her. I doubt adding an additional step to keep track of will help, but I respect Bri for asking for advice in a yachtie group. She really is trying, bless her heart.

The new primaries are Murphy and Beth from Dayton, Ohio, along with three other married couples who are all celebrating their 15th anniversaries. There’s a possible shellfish allergy, and Sandy says there’s no room for error for Jono after his near-firing last charter. Except, with no replacement chef available, there’s more like a whole hotel of rooms for error. For their first lunch, Aesha holds off on service because the wind knocks over a glass, radioing the stews to stand by, but Ellie thinks they’re supposed to start running plates. Carrie follows her lead, and this puts Jono’s timing at risk. He’s worried he’ll be blamed if the food is cold, but thankfully, the guests are happy with the food.

A less happy meal occurs in the crew mess, where Gael and Nathan are eating. Joe asks if Gael can go back in the water, but she says Iain told her to change, and she doesn’t have any more “dry wets.” (I love the oxymoron of this uniform phrase). Joe will have to go in instead. He calls her a princess, and she calls him a prick in return. It’s teasing but with a real animosity underneath, and Nathan is stuck uncomfortably in the middle. I support Gael’s theory that the closer she gets to Nathan, the bitchier Joe gets with her. I almost want him to get with Carrie so he gets off our girl Gael’s back, but I still wouldn’t wish that upon Carrie.

Speaking of the new stew, the more Ellie sees how capable Carrie is, the more upset Ellie seems to get about her situation. Bri and Aesha are thrilled to have more help, but Ellie is operating from a place of fear. Aesha and Carrie hitting it off makes her feel like a third wheel, and she fears she’s about to be demoted. If there were a difference in pay, I could understand, but I’m pretty sure the second and third stews are paid the same here, making this an issue of pure ego. Ellie brings her concerns to Aesha, who says she’s not demoting Ellie but also doesn’t say she wouldn’t in the future. A hierarchy shake-up would be a delicious comeuppance after she tried to pull rank on Bri so aggressively. Aesha implies to us that Ellie’s not cut out to be a chief stew because she doesn’t understand that the guest experience is the most important thing. Hope those branded partnerships come through for her.

Aesha Calls Out Ellie on the After Show for Being "Immediately Threatened" by Carrie

Aesha Scott and Elena "Ellie" Dubaich are at odds over the hiring of new stew Carrie O'Neill.

During Season 9, Episode 14 of  Below Deck Mediterranean ,  which aired September 1,  Elena "Ellie" Dubaich  expressed her distaste with Aesha Scott 's decision to bring another stew, Carrie O'Neill , on board.

"I don't know why we need a new person. I don't agree with it, but I have to respect it," Ellie said. "It feels like I'm about to get demoted. If I'm reading this situation correctly, it would make me start resenting Aesha for that decision." 

On the subsequent episode of the  Below Deck Mediterranean After Show , Aesha theorized that  had  become the case after all.

"I think she could see as soon as Carrie came on that she was more equipped and better than her, and was immediately threatened," Aesha told Kate Chastain while commenting on how Ellie had asked her advice on becoming a chief stew  right after Carrie's arrival . "But I was like, 'Babe, I can read you like a f-cking book. I know what you're doing.' But she's like standing there staring at me, so I'd give her these really short, unenthused answers. And then I'm like, 'Anyway, let's just talk about it later.'"

Regardless, Aesha did note that Ellie is  "a very good worker."

"I'm like, if you just shut up and put your head down and played the game and just went along with it and you were a good stew, [you] actually would rise up the ranks so much quicker," Aesha said. "But she's so preoccupied with, 'How am I going to look?'"

Why Ellie Dubaich asked Aesha Scott for advice on becoming chief stew

Ellie noted on the episode that after the charter season ended, she wanted to "go home and find a small boat" and try her hand at being a chief stew. So, that's why she turned to Aesha for advice — but as for her timing (aka upon Carrie's arrival), Ellie explained on the After Show , "I kind of felt really good about the season. We were finally in a good place. I felt comfortable with my job. I felt comfortable with Aesha."

Aesha Scott Details Unaired Moment She “Felt So Sh-tty”: “Almost Ruined the Season”

" Bri [Muller] and I had made up , we finally had a good charter together. So I felt like, 'Okay, this is my time to kind of ask Aesha to teach me anything else I could possibly learn,'" she continued. "Maybe about provisioning ? Or anything else that she does in her job that maybe I don't see?' It was my chance to kind of gain enough knowledge to be able to then go onto another boat and be confident to do the job on my own."

"It had nothing to do with Carrie," Ellie concluded. "This was fully for me, because it felt that's where I was on my journey on the boat. You know, I was kind of comfortable with the cocktails and the service and the set-up and the housekeeping and laundry, so this was like the only thing that was left for me to still learn before I left. I think that gaining service experience was something I was really looking forward to coming into the season, and Aesha has given me a chance to achieve that as well. So I'm grateful to her for that."

What Are the Below Deck Season 1 Cast Doing Now?

By Amy DeVore

Below Deck  first set sail on Bravo in July 2013. It was a hit, and this series quickly blew up, with spin-offs emerging left and right. Or should I say port side and starboard? All yoke lines aside, inaugural seasons typically carry steep learning curves, but wildly, this first group of stars (mostly) handled their sh*t with ease. Let’s now do a roll call and check in on these series-introducing yachties.

Captain Lee Rosbach set sail on Oxygen

Captain Lee Rosbach , AKA the Stud of the Seas, kicked this entire franchise off. Therefore, I will always toss some respect on his name. He led from Below Deck’s wheelhouse until the end of Season 10, and then Bravo pulled his plug, replacing him with Captain Kerry Titheradge from Below Deck Adventure . Thankfully, this sassy Captain found his new home shortly after.

Reality television and true crime series are excellent forms of escapism. I am not alone in my avoidance pursuits, as Oxygen created an entire series with these two things in mind, and they brought Bravo’s first-ever Captain along for the ride. Cue Deadly Waters with Captain Lee , a series that sails through more sinister ports of call than BD. Each episode sees Captain Lee walking through various true crime stories, each taking place over a different body of water.

If you miss this witty wheelhouse wonder, head over to Oxygen and catch up with Captain Lee and his factually deceased seafarers (not his formerly figuratively dead-to-him hires) now.

Aleks Taldykin moved on to Vanderpump Rules, the sales side of yachting, and fatherhood

Fun fact. Aleks Taldykin was originally in the mix for the Captain’s role on Below Deck. After the network handed this gig over to Captain Lee, Aleks got cast in an equally important role, walking on board as the first First Officer for this series. Sadly, he only lasted one season.

When one door closes, another one opens, literally, for Aleks. In Season 4 of Vanderpump Rules , Stassi Schroeder opened Kristen Doute’s door, and there stood Aleks. He and Kristen had a small fling in 2016, three years after his stint on Below Deck. It didn’t work out, but it was nice to see Kristen putting herself out there again following her breakup with James Kennedy .

These days, Aleks is still in the yachting industry, although he now works primarily on land. Before he joined BD, Aleks started Elite Yacht Management in Southern California, so he already had a gig to return home to post filming. In 2019, he added another job to his resume via Denison Yachting, selling large motor yachts to everyone but me. As for his personal life, Aleks became a father earlier this year, so we can now consider his life officially busy.

Adrienne Gang made a brief cameo in Season 2 and then returned to her culinary roots

Adrienne Gang is the first Chief Stew in the Below Deck franchise. Her tough-as-nails work ethic didn’t always find her fellow yachties well, so she only lasted one season on Bravo. Much to the non-delight of her Season 1 stew, Kat Held , Adrienne made a brief cameo in Season 2. The charter guests were her friends, so she joined them on a land-based excursion while Kat (mostly) reigned her emotions in.

Following this cameo, Adrienne secured herself an impressive gig, working as the culinary director of Blue Oceans Yachting. She was a chef before Below Deck, so this makes sense. Additionally, Adrienne works as a private chef, with a few speaking gigs on the side.

Adrienne has also taken a few leaps post-filming that have failed to stick. In 2018, she got married. In 2021, she started a podcast called Gangplank Report. Unfortunately, her marriage ended sometime between 2023 and 2024, joining her equally defunct podcast around that same timeframe.

Good on you for trying new things post-filming for Season 1 of Below Deck, Adrienne.

Kat Held found other bars and gemstones

Kat worked as a stew in Season 1. Her carefree personality and love of a good time saw her returning for Season 2. However, these two seasons would be her only ones on Bravo. That said, she did return to film a BD 100th-episode special on Watch What Happens Live in 2020.

Best known for her drunken “I wanna go to the bar” cries, Kat has since exited the yachting industry. She has tried her hand as a waitress and a bartender, but these gigs must have grown old, as Kat is now all about that gem life. In 2022, Kate created a new Instagram account. Her latest venture is under the handle of @thelapidaryshop , where Kat describes herself as an “Archeology & Gemology Enthusiast.”

Kat is now a “Collector, seller, and buyer of gemstones, crystals, rocks, minerals, fossils, and jewelry.” Rock on, Kat.

Samantha Orme is an Engineer and a mother

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Samantha Ulmer (@samiorme)

Samantha Orme was a fan-favorite stew in Season 1, but she made the call not to return to filming in Season 2. She wanted a different life and a different life she now has. Work-wise, Sam stepped off the pier and entered into a Vice President of Engineering role at a solar energy firm. Now, she is the Enterprise Program Manager at Fidelity National Information Services, according to her LinkedIn .

Her bossiest coworkers, however, are likely her husband Brad, a Coast Guard helicopter pilot, and their two little girls, Blake and Molly. I have a Molly as well. Sam and I also share our current locations, which I will only describe as a beachy, sleepy little pocket just North of Tampa, bordering the Gulf of Mexico. Call me, Sam.

Eddie Lucas is now a tugboat captain

Eddie Lucas stole the show in Below Deck Season 1, so the network brought him back for Seasons 2, 3, 8, and 9. That said, the chances of seeing Eddie again on our screens are slim, as after filming on Season 9, Eddie trash-talked Bravo for their abysmal Below Deck paychecks . I can’t blame the guy for this, because have you seen the price of snacks these days?!

Eddie has since pivoted away from the superyacht industry, yet he’s still working on boats because “Eduardo loves the ladies ” water. His current boats, however, are Tugboats, and he’s now a captain. This title took him several years to secure, but Eddie never gave up, and I am sure this made his boat Daddy (Captain Lee) proud. Eddie recently even purchased a home in Baltimore, so it’s safe to say that he has fully settled into his next chapter of life post-filming.

David Bradberry is an actor and a writer

David Bradberry was a precious, innocent deckhand. He engaged in little-to-no conflict throughout his entire first season, and everyone from the cast to the viewers loved watching his various unproblematic scenes. He even got engaged to his then-boyfriend during the show, but sadly, in 2019, this romance fizzled out. David also returned to Below Deck at the tail end of Season 3, rounding out a shortly-staffed crew.

Since leaving Below Deck, David traded in his epaulets and started perfecting his stage face. He is now living the dream, working as an actor and a writer in our nation’s capital. His IMDb page credits a few of his new roles, including “The Last Straight Man” (2014) and “Confessions” (2015). All the world’s a stage, and David is a solid player.

C.J. LeBeau owns a home improvement company

CJ LeBeau and Sam were tight in Season 1, but unlike Sam, CJ only lasted for nine episodes of Below Deck’s inaugural season. After taking a boozy swim with Sam during a charter, Captain Lee, who was already weary of the guy, talked him into leaving. He joined another boat at the marina, and following this, he stayed away from the limelight.

Minus an arrest for Domestic Violence, which we hope taught him many things, CJ returned to the world of construction, which he first started gaining experience in at the ripe old age of 12. Now, he owns his own company, Done Today by CJ. According to his website , he does everything from property repairs to plumbing, ever the well-rounded tradesman. Keep making good choices, deckie alum.

Chef Ben Robinson is still in the galley, just not on Below Deck, for now

Chef Ben Robinson has my heart for life. After charming everyone with his quick wit in BD Season 1, Bravo brought him back multiple times, including a few stints on Below Deck Mediterranean . This man can cook, clap back, and call out his fellow yachties like a true king. He is made for this realm.

According to his website , Ben now “runs a successful catering business.” This sees him traveling “all over the world creating culinary masterpieces. He is available for private events, private instruction, and guest appearances.” His website also links to his purchasable wares and tools, all sold to help inspire the inner chefs in us all.

On that note, It’s time for me to run along and burn tonight’s dinner. Chef Ben, send help. Also, send yourself back to Below Deck.

Who are the worst Below Deck charter guests in franchise history?

Below Deck Med just featured two of the rudest charter guests in the history of the hit-yachting franchise.

Mahisha Dellinger and Neysla Paltsev were dragged for their actions on Below Deck Med Season 9.

Meanwhile, Neylsa apologized for her actions o n the show but also threw some shade at the editing.

While Below Deck Med fans thought they were the worst, Neylsa and Mahisha are far from the worst guests ever to be on the show.

Let’s take a look at all the horrible guests ever in the Below Deck series.

Jill Zarin appeared on Below Deck Season 11 and earned serious backlash for her entitled behavior and for suggesting the crew have a bell she could ring whenever she needed something.

The Real Housewives of New York City alum wasn’t even the primary guest on the charter but certainly acted like she ran things.

Below Deck Season 8 guest Delores Flora will forever be remembered as the drunk who disobeyed Captain Lee Rosbach’s orders and got kicked off the charter.

It all happened because of her drunken late-night swim, which she did again after she was forced to leave the yacht.

Timothy Sykes was on Below Deck Season 2, showing off his wealth by flying a helicopter to the dock, wearing shirts with his name on them, and just being a jerk.

He even announced that he deducted $5,000 from the tip he was going to give because he had issues with Chef Ben Robinson’s food.

Below Deck Season 6, Kari Klein was demeaned the worst for her comments on chicken. Kari called out another guest for ordering chicken, claiming, “Chicken is what poor people eat.”

@andy.cohens.bussy I guess Im poor #belowdeck #bravotv #katechastain #captainlee #yachtlife #yachtie #belowdeck ♬ original sound – Andy Cohens Bussy (PK)

Chelsea Enright appeared on Below Deck Season 9 with her jaw wired shut. Chef Rachel Hargrove was forced to make all of her meals in smoothie form, and they were to be exactly what the other guests were eating. Yes, it was gross, and she got impatient at every meal.

Honorable mentions for awful guests go to Brandy Coffey for her drunken medical emergency and RHOC star Alexis Bellino for her PDA with a guy she’s no longer dating. Both of these guests were on Below Deck Season 7.

Below Deck Med and Below Deck Sailing Yacht

Leon Glore and Justin Thornton get lumped together for their Below Deck Med Season 5 stint. Leo went off on the lack of Oysters until Hannah Ferrier proved him wrong with the preference sheet.

@andy.cohens.bussy I love when a guest is proved wrong #belowdeck #belowdeckmed #bravotv #hannahferrier #captainsandy #customerservice ♬ original sound – Andy Cohens Bussy (PK)

Meanwhile, Justin and the group were slammed for a low tip, considering they were overly demanding and ran the crew ragged. Justin even brought along his dog Scout, who had to stay ashore where the crew would check on him at various times.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2 introduced viewers to Erica Rose . While the crew were not fans and neither were viewers, Erica’s Season 2 appearance was nothing compared to her return in Season 3 with her husband, Charles Sanders.

They complained about everything, especially Chef Marcos Spaziani’s food. Charles said McDonald’s was better. Aside from being rude and ruining the white couch with self tanner, Eric and friends left a $6,000 tip.

Other honorable mentions from the spin-off shows include Below Deck Med Season 6 guest Athena Lucene and Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 3 guest Dr. Kim Nichols.

We have no doubt there are some we missed, so let Monsters and Critics know in the comments section who you feel are the worst guests in the Below Deck franchise.

Below Deck Med airs Mondays at 9/8c on Bravo. Seasons 1-9 are streaming on Peacock.
