Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2 Cast: Where Are They Now?

Here's what happened to Daisy, Colin, Captain Glenn and the rest of the Parsifal crew.

Considering the series filmed in August 2020, viewers are curious about the whereabouts of our Sailing Yacht favorites...and, more importantly, how the cast and crew managed to film for several weeks amid lockdown. As it turns out, the location of this season was chosen intentionally. At that time, Croatia remained one of few countries in the EU to accept American tourists. In a Reddit AMA , a producer for the show also explained that maintaining safety protocols (which likely included regular Covid testing) was key in filming this season.

Here's what happened to your favorite crew members from Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2:

Colin Macrae

Colin Macrae might serve as the Chief Engineer aboard the Parsifal III, however, when it comes to the inner workings of his relationship, things aren’t as black and white. Despite gushing over his relationship with Martina Alvarez last summer, Macrae revealed that he and Martina have officially parted ways. “Unfortunately my relationship with Martina came to an end a couple of months ago,” Colin captioned his most recent YouTube video . Although his romance is no more, Colin remains optimistic for what’s to come as he embarks on a “fresh start” in none other than Panama. Colin has also continued his efforts in creating content online documenting his many adventures in Linton Bay, Panama , where he’s resided over the course of the last few months.

Glenn Shephard

Captain Glenn Shephard is back and better than ever! The sailboat captain may only have 2 seasons of Below Deck under his belt, but his 20 years of experience certainly make him a notable addition to the Bravo family. Since his summer in Croatia last year, Gl enn has since moved to Spain , which Shephard has deemed his new “happy place.” While becoming a Bravo-lebrity can go to one’s head, Glenn has remained modest when it comes to his newfound fame. The star now offers Zoom sessions with fans of the show, where he dishes on behind-the-scenes details all while sipping cocktails on the Spanish coast.

First Officer Gary King walked away from his very first season on Below Deck Sailing Yacht feeling nothing but grateful. “Reminiscing about the last 6 weeks that have just flown by. I learned lessons that I’ll carry for life,” Gary wrote on Instagram . While fans have been rooting for him and fellow stewardess, Alli Dore to set sails on a possible romance, it appears as King has been flying solo since the series ended. After traveling about to a number of stunning locations, including Mallorca, Spain, Gary returned home to South Africa just in time for Christmas. The Bravo star has since remained in his home country, occupying himself with a series of visits to the golf range and a new passion for landscape photography and cooking.

Natasha De Bourg

The Michelin-star chef has been tuning in this season from her home in the Bahamas, and, well, she hasn't taken to it favorably. The star has posted a series of pics on her Instagram detailing her frustrations with herself on the show, claiming that she is “human and humans are imperfect.” Luckily for Natasha, her friendship with both Dani and Alli has blossomed immensely since wrapping up, and the two have been a huge support for Natasha as she cruises through these waves of criticism.

Daisy Kelliher

Being the Chief Stewardess on any yacht is no easy feat, and Daisy Kelliher is certainly feeling the burn. Following her time at sea in Croatia, Daisy, unfortunately, broke her wrist and found herself back home with mom and dad in Ireland . During lockdown, Daisy accepted a job in Antigua two months later, however, due to the current situation, her efforts at finding adventure fell flat. “I had completely lost myself,” Daisy captioned her photo on Instagram , revealing she began pushing friends away and entered a dark space. Luckily for the Below Deck star, she feels like herself again and is set to start a new job. During a live chat, Daisy revealed to co-star, Sydney Zaruba that she is most likely headed back to Europe, although she’s left much of what she’ll be doing a mystery.

Dani Soares

Dani Soares soared to being a fan favorite this current season and we don’t see that changing anytime soon. Soares, who reigns all the way from Brazil, has gone on to make quite a name for herself since her summer in Croatia. The star currently resides in Sydney, Australia where she is expecting her very first child. Dani revealed the news on social media back in April, however, both her due date and daddy status remain unknown. Although fans have inquired who the father is, Soares made it clear that it isn’t “anybody’s business.” As she embarks on her journey towards motherhood, Dani is currently working as a beauty therapist in the land down under all while taking in her recent rise to fame.

Alli Dore is the third stewardess to join the hit Bravo series, and boy are we glad she did. After wrapping up her summer in Croatia, Alli returned home to Australia, where she was born and raised. Her love for boating didn’t stop when the summer did, as she went on to spend her time in the Whitsundays Islands. As for Alli’s personal life, the star made an appearance on the Unpopular podcast where she revealed that she is pansexual. [I am] “attracted to people’s aura,” she revealed. Alli has gone on to start her very own IGTV series called Pita Party , which she stars in alongside Sailing Yacht co-stars, Daisy and Dani.

Sydney Zaruba

Sydney Zaruba found herself in quite the love triangle last summer in Croatia, but today, she is all about keeping her inner circle small. Sydney, who was born and raised in Florida, moved on over to the stunning island of Mallorca, Spain where she currently works on a 42-meter sailing yacht! This is nothing new for Sydney; considering her experience on Below Deck and, of course, her long history of sailing with her family. In addition to being at sea, Sydney decided to become a travel agent with Explorateur Travel. While the cast of Sailing Yacht has gone their separate ways since the summer ended, Sydney still managed to bump into none other than Captain Glenn on the streets of Palma.

Jean-Luc Cerza Lanaux

Jean-Luc may be the youngest Below Deck crew member but he certainly makes up for it in height? Following his summer working on the Parsifal III, Jean-Luc traveled to Mallorca, Spain, an idea many of his co-stars had as well. Shortly after, the 25-year-old made his way on over to Costa Rica , which he’s called home for the last several months. Despite the remarkable views, Jean-Luc is entering some rocky waters as a plethora of rumors have surfaced questioning his role in Dani Soares’ pregnancy. Not only have fans been flooding his social media with questions concerning whether he’s the father or not, but fellow charter guest, Barrie Drewitt-Barlow also went on to add fuel to the fire. In an Instagram video posted back in April, Barrie claimed that Jean-Luc “was too busy getting the other one [Dani] pregnant … He’s gonna be a daddy,” he said. While Dani laughed off the comment, Jean-Luc has yet to address the rumors.

Below Deck: 8 Charter Guests With The Worst Attitudes

Below deck: everything to know about charter guest erica rose, gary king has ruined below deck sailing yacht's future (it will never be the same).

• 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 Mediterranean Season 9, Episode 12 Recap: Managing the Medicane

Welcome to the  Below Deck Mediterranean  Season 9, Episode 12 recap! In this week’s episode, called “The Perfect Storm,” Joe breaks his date with Ellie. Bri pumps the brakes when she realizes he’s just playing with both of them, and Nathan takes Gael rock-climbing. There’s a leak in the forward crew cabin, as a huge Medicane storm keeps the boat on the dock. Here are some of the highlights from Below Deck Med Season 9, Episode 12.

Joe Bradley backs out of the date with Elena Dubiach on Below Deck Mediterranean

Picking up from where we left off last week, Joe is explaining to Ellie that he really doesn’t want to go on a date with her, even though he already said yes.

“It’s just too much pressure,” he explains. “I don’t want to date.”

Even though she says she just wanted to get to know him better, she assures Joe that it’s all fine. They don’t have to go on a date.

Whew! Joe is relieved, but it remains to be seen how Ellie’s going to handle this unexpected disappointment.

After Joe leaves her cabin, Ellie interviews, “He liked me enough to make out with me a few days ago. But now you don’t like me enough to get to know me as a person and talk to me?”

“I can understand why some spiders eat their mate after mating,” she adds.

After overhearing Joe explaining his feelings to Nathan, Gael says, “Joe is being a little bit of a d*ck. He is choosing what he wants when he wants it, without considering how it affects the girls. It’s just not nice anymore. I’m losing respect for Joe in that sense.”

Surprisingly, Bri takes Ellie’s side, too. “I’m not surprised that Joe said no [to the date],” she says. “But he should have said no first, instead of saying yes. I feel sorry for Ellie. This is what annoys me: he’ll start something, but he’ll never finish it.”

Bri Muller sees Joe Bradley’s true colors

Ellie and Bri have a sit down after dinner. Bri apologizes “for the whole Joe thing.”

“Honestly, he really hurt my feelings today,” Ellie responds.

“He’s playing with both of us,” Bri says. “I think he likes chasing.” Bri calls him “a flea” that hops back and forth but is of no consequence.

But when Bri goes to the loo, Joe follows her and starts “chasing” again. “Hellooooooo!” he says flirtatiously.

“Oh, God!” Bri mutters to herself, sounding really drunk.

“Why did your face drop when you seen me?” Joe asks her.

“You picked a side,” she says. “Don’t give me the eyes.”

“I only give you the eyes,” he flirts, “because you’re giving me these eyes, man. And you know how to work them eyes.”

“F*ck off,” she answers. “I want to hook up with you so bad.”

So he goes into the bathroom stall with her, and you can hear him say, “Find a position. Get your f*cking skirt up.” They’ve forgotten they’re miked, and we can hear everything.

When he claims he doesn’t know what he’s doing, Bri adds, “Then I’ll make the decision, if you don’t know. I’m not having this. For real. If you can’t be a man, I will be.” And with that, she kicks him out of her bathroom stall. Good job, Bri.

“In every way possible, Joe is not good for me,” Bri interviews. “It’s feeding into my impulsiveness. It’s not making me a good human.”

When it’s time to go back to the boat, Joe and Bri are sitting at opposite ends of the van’s bench seat. She’s as far away from him as she can get.

“Bri, I’m sorry,” Joe says.

“Whatever,” she replies as he helps her out of the van.

Nathan makes a date

After dinner, Nathan finally makes his move with Gael. He asks if she’d like to “get off the boat and just do something fun tomorrow?”

“Are we allowed to do that?” she wonders. He says he’ll ask permission from Iain.

The whole time they’re talking, I can’t keep my eyes off the Acropolis in the background, all lit up at night. It’s gorgeous!

The next morning, Nathan asks Captain Sandy if he could get permission to take Gael off the boat “to do a wee activity” in the afternoon. “I’ve been enjoying her company, so I just thought it would be nice if we could get off the boat and have a little distraction.”

Sandy’s a sucker for love, cause she says sure without hesitation. “Of course,” she smiles. “Enjoy yourself. As long as the work is completed.”

They go to a rock-climbing facility later that afternoon. Nathan is suddenly afraid of heights, but Gael is a natural. She scrambles up the wall and rappels down without any problem.

They have a wonderful time and return to the boat happy.

Taking on water

At the preference meeting for the next charter, Sandy tells Aesha, Jono, and Iain that the weather is going to be bad tomorrow. They’re not going to be able to get off the dock for at least the first day. The wind’s going to blow at 40+ knots.

“In the States, this would be called a hurricane,” Sandy interviews. “Since we’re in the Med, it’s called a ‘Medicane.’ High winds, lots of rain.” She’s hoping the weather will move through quickly, and they can get off the dock the second day.

The rain begins with a vengeance just as the provisions arrive. When Sandy’s down in the crew mess, she hears water dripping. Turns out it’s in the forward cabin (I thought she was going to get that fixed?).

Somehow Sandy determines that the water is coming from the bosun’s locker, which is just above the forward cabin. When she goes to check it out, she discovers, “We’re taking on water.”

If the boat takes on too much water, it could sink. “We can’t go to sea if we’re taking on water,” she says.

Apparently, the bosun’s locker is full of water. Sandy radios the chief engineer and tells him the windows and doors are all closed, as is the hatch. She doesn’t know where the water is coming from. He says he’ll be right there.

He discovers that a plug has popped off a water line and is spewing water. The good part is that they finally figured out why the forward cabin was leaking. Sandy pulls out the wet mattress and says to get some fans into the cabin to dry it out.

Water, water everywhere on Below Deck Mediterranean

Since they won’t be able to leave the dock, Jono is planning some really fancy food to distract the guests. As they’re enjoying their snacks and drinks at the bar, Sandy breaks the bad news that they won’t be leaving the dock today.

“You would hate me and be scared for your life,” she tells them.

To make up for not being able to take the boat off the dock, Aesha has plans to take them to one of Athens’ oldest wineries for winetasting. It’s 17 kilometers away. Will they make it in the pouring rain?

As the guests leave with Aesha to go winetasting, Sandy checks on the weather again. “30 inches of rain today?” she says. What?! Is that even possible? I live in California. We don’t get that much in a year.

As the guests are rethinking their winery outing and the deck crew is frantically trying to get the deck cushions out of the rain, suddenly an alarm goes off.

“I think we’re leaking again,” Sandy says in dismay. “Oh, this is bad.”

She sends Iain to check if the forward cabin is still leaking. He climbs up into the infrastructure. We can’t see him, but we can hear him swearing, “Oh, f*ck!”

Whatever it is, it can’t be good. But we won’t know until next week, because they leave us hanging. Damn you, show!

Below Deck Mediterranean  airs Mondays at 9/8c on Bravo.

Below Deck Mediterranean Season 9, Episode 12 Recap: Managing the Medicane

Welcome to the  Below Deck Mediterranean  Season 9, Episode 12 recap! In this week’s episode, called “The Perfect Storm,” Joe breaks his date with Ellie. Bri pumps the brakes when she realizes he’s just playing with both of them, and Nathan takes Gael rock-climbing. There’s a leak in the forward crew cabin, as a huge Medicane storm keeps the boat on the dock. Here are some of the highlights from Below Deck Med Season 9, Episode 12.

Joe Bradley backs out of the date with Elena Dubiach on Below Deck Mediterranean

Picking up from where we left off last week, Joe is explaining to Ellie that he really doesn’t want to go on a date with her, even though he already said yes.

“It’s just too much pressure,” he explains. “I don’t want to date.”

Even though she says she just wanted to get to know him better, she assures Joe that it’s all fine. They don’t have to go on a date.

Whew! Joe is relieved, but it remains to be seen how Ellie’s going to handle this unexpected disappointment.

After Joe leaves her cabin, Ellie interviews, “He liked me enough to make out with me a few days ago. But now you don’t like me enough to get to know me as a person and talk to me?”

“I can understand why some spiders eat their mate after mating,” she adds.

After overhearing Joe explaining his feelings to Nathan, Gael says, “Joe is being a little bit of a d*ck. He is choosing what he wants when he wants it, without considering how it affects the girls. It’s just not nice anymore. I’m losing respect for Joe in that sense.”

Surprisingly, Bri takes Ellie’s side, too. “I’m not surprised that Joe said no [to the date],” she says. “But he should have said no first, instead of saying yes. I feel sorry for Ellie. This is what annoys me: he’ll start something, but he’ll never finish it.”

Bri Muller sees Joe Bradley’s true colors

Ellie and Bri have a sit down after dinner. Bri apologizes “for the whole Joe thing.”

“Honestly, he really hurt my feelings today,” Ellie responds.

“He’s playing with both of us,” Bri says. “I think he likes chasing.” Bri calls him “a flea” that hops back and forth but is of no consequence.

But when Bri goes to the loo, Joe follows her and starts “chasing” again. “Hellooooooo!” he says flirtatiously.

“Oh, God!” Bri mutters to herself, sounding really drunk.

“Why did your face drop when you seen me?” Joe asks her.

“You picked a side,” she says. “Don’t give me the eyes.”

“I only give you the eyes,” he flirts, “because you’re giving me these eyes, man. And you know how to work them eyes.”

“F*ck off,” she answers. “I want to hook up with you so bad.”

So he goes into the bathroom stall with her, and you can hear him say, “Find a position. Get your f*cking skirt up.” They’ve forgotten they’re miked, and we can hear everything.

When he claims he doesn’t know what he’s doing, Bri adds, “Then I’ll make the decision, if you don’t know. I’m not having this. For real. If you can’t be a man, I will be.” And with that, she kicks him out of her bathroom stall. Good job, Bri.

“In every way possible, Joe is not good for me,” Bri interviews. “It’s feeding into my impulsiveness. It’s not making me a good human.”

When it’s time to go back to the boat, Joe and Bri are sitting at opposite ends of the van’s bench seat. She’s as far away from him as she can get.

“Bri, I’m sorry,” Joe says.

“Whatever,” she replies as he helps her out of the van.

Nathan makes a date

After dinner, Nathan finally makes his move with Gael. He asks if she’d like to “get off the boat and just do something fun tomorrow?”

“Are we allowed to do that?” she wonders. He says he’ll ask permission from Iain.

The whole time they’re talking, I can’t keep my eyes off the Acropolis in the background, all lit up at night. It’s gorgeous!

The next morning, Nathan asks Captain Sandy if he could get permission to take Gael off the boat “to do a wee activity” in the afternoon. “I’ve been enjoying her company, so I just thought it would be nice if we could get off the boat and have a little distraction.”

Sandy’s a sucker for love, cause she says sure without hesitation. “Of course,” she smiles. “Enjoy yourself. As long as the work is completed.”

They go to a rock-climbing facility later that afternoon. Nathan is suddenly afraid of heights, but Gael is a natural. She scrambles up the wall and rappels down without any problem.

They have a wonderful time and return to the boat happy.

Taking on water

At the preference meeting for the next charter, Sandy tells Aesha, Jono, and Iain that the weather is going to be bad tomorrow. They’re not going to be able to get off the dock for at least the first day. The wind’s going to blow at 40+ knots.

“In the States, this would be called a hurricane,” Sandy interviews. “Since we’re in the Med, it’s called a ‘Medicane.’ High winds, lots of rain.” She’s hoping the weather will move through quickly, and they can get off the dock the second day.

The rain begins with a vengeance just as the provisions arrive. When Sandy’s down in the crew mess, she hears water dripping. Turns out it’s in the forward cabin (I thought she was going to get that fixed?).

Somehow Sandy determines that the water is coming from the bosun’s locker, which is just above the forward cabin. When she goes to check it out, she discovers, “We’re taking on water.”

If the boat takes on too much water, it could sink. “We can’t go to sea if we’re taking on water,” she says.

Apparently, the bosun’s locker is full of water. Sandy radios the chief engineer and tells him the windows and doors are all closed, as is the hatch. She doesn’t know where the water is coming from. He says he’ll be right there.

He discovers that a plug has popped off a water line and is spewing water. The good part is that they finally figured out why the forward cabin was leaking. Sandy pulls out the wet mattress and says to get some fans into the cabin to dry it out.

Water, water everywhere on Below Deck Mediterranean

Since they won’t be able to leave the dock, Jono is planning some really fancy food to distract the guests. As they’re enjoying their snacks and drinks at the bar, Sandy breaks the bad news that they won’t be leaving the dock today.

“You would hate me and be scared for your life,” she tells them.

To make up for not being able to take the boat off the dock, Aesha has plans to take them to one of Athens’ oldest wineries for winetasting. It’s 17 kilometers away. Will they make it in the pouring rain?

As the guests leave with Aesha to go winetasting, Sandy checks on the weather again. “30 inches of rain today?” she says. What?! Is that even possible? I live in California. We don’t get that much in a year.

As the guests are rethinking their winery outing and the deck crew is frantically trying to get the deck cushions out of the rain, suddenly an alarm goes off.

“I think we’re leaking again,” Sandy says in dismay. “Oh, this is bad.”

She sends Iain to check if the forward cabin is still leaking. He climbs up into the infrastructure. We can’t see him, but we can hear him swearing, “Oh, f*ck!”

Whatever it is, it can’t be good. But we won’t know until next week, because they leave us hanging. Damn you, show!

Below Deck Mediterranean  airs Mondays at 9/8c on Bravo.

Below Deck Med’s Joe Bradley dragged for Bri Muller and Elena Dubaich’s treatment, called ‘worse’ than Gary King

Joe Bradley from Below Deck Med has the trolls coming for him over how he’s treated Elena “Ellie” Dubaich and Bri Muller during Season 9.

The haters aren’t here for Joe leading on the two women, causing a slew of drama in the interior department.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht fans know Gary’s womanizing ways have been front and center on the show for three seasons.

The most recent episode of Below Deck Med featured Joe declining a date with Ellie, only to flirt with her at dinner and literally hook up with Bri later in a bar bathroom.

Joe’s actions had X (formerly Twitter) in an uproar, slamming the deckhand for his behavior.

One X user didn’t even know what to say after describing the events that went down between Joe and Bri and Joe and Ellie on the episode.

“looool Joe is such a clown. A date is up here for him. He prefers to get drunk and score with women whose standards are hindered by liquor.  He’s just gross and weak. #belowdeckmed,” read an X.

Gross was a word to describe Joe again as one X questioned why the two women were fighting over him.

Joe getting stuck sitting next to Ellie at dinner after declining her date had an X user laughing out loud.

“Nathan takes “his girl” to fun dates while Joe Bradley takes them to uncomfortable positions in public bathrooms #BelowDeckMed,” said one X.

Oh yes, Joe’s bathroom stunt with Bri had social media riled up and also gave off Gary from Below Deck Sailing Yacht vibes.

Joe Bradley compared to Below Deck Sailing Yacht’s Gary King

“Joe might be worse than Gary #BelowDeckMed,” was an X, while another called out Jeo for his “f**k boy” behavior.

The deckhand was also referred to as being creepy, fake, and pretty disgusting for the way he treated the women.

Popular opinion was that Joe just wanted one thing and was playing both Ellie and Bri to get what he wanted.

Joe wants one thing. He knows Ellie won't give it to him, but Bri will. #belowdeckmed https://t.co/fDaRcaAzPQ — Michele Fallon (@MicheleFallon7) August 20, 2024

“The way this doucher freaked out at the notion of going on ONE date with a girl that he’s already shown interest in & made out with was sooo bizarre 🤯 The fck boy energy is STRONG with this one!!  😬,” declared an X.

Below Deck Med fans were disgusted at the way he spoke to and acted with Bri in the bathroom stall.

“Get in a position in a toilet stall? What a sweet talker Joe is. Ewwww! #belowdeckmed,” wrote one X user.

A different X was SMH at his bathroom antics with Bri.

Those are just a few examples of the backlash Joe Bradley has rightfully earned for his behavior on Below Deck Med.

Not that Bri Muller and Elena Dubaich are innocent, but Joe has definitely led them on, and honesty, is he even worth it?

As Monsters and Critics previously reported, the end of Below Deck Med Season 9 is almost here, so hopefully, that means Joe will have to answer for his actions soon.

What do you think of Joe being compared to Gary?

Below Deck Mediterranean Recap: Toilet Kisses

Below deck mediterranean.

After a season-highlight episode last week , I came into this one with more enthusiasm. Unfortunately, that enthusiasm has been dampened almost as much as the leaky crew cabin. The first half of the episode is largely devoted to the Ellie-Joe-Bri mess, which doesn’t feel fun anymore (or was it ever fun?). I’m protective of the girls and disappointed in them simultaneously. I fully condemn all online harassment of cast members, but it sure is tempting to throw a “GET A JOB. STAY AWAY FROM HER.” into Joe’s comments.

Joe starts off well enough, as he’s honest with Ellie. He tells her he actually doesn’t want to go on the date he said yes to hours earlier. He doesn’t want anything serious and says he’s not ready for dating. She also doesn’t want anything serious and takes the rejection better than expected. Joe asks, “You don’t hate me?” What a cringey question from an adult man, telling on himself for being more concerned about how he comes off than about her feelings. Ellie uses email sign-off speak to convey her dislike: “No worries, thank you so much.” Gossip travels fast around the crew cabins: Gael hears Joe tell Nathan what happened, so she goes to check on Ellie. We love Gael!

For the crew night out, Ellie overdresses as usual, this time in a beaded pearl two-piece crop-top set that makes me think she’d be more at home on a Selling Sunset spinoff. At dinner, she and Joe sit next to each other — I need a slo-mo play-by-play with commentary on how this happened. Instead of making an excuse and switching seats, Joe erases any work he did to stop stringing Ellie along. It’s like she’s a cat, and he’s rolling out the charm ball of yarn, offering her a sip of his drink. She says no but starts to warm back up to him when he explains he got overwhelmed because he’s never been asked on a date before. We learn that Joe has only been in one relationship, and it ended in 2017. He tells us that he wants to marry the next person he dates. This logic makes no sense. Does he not realize you have to date people in order to find out if you want to marry them? If anyone’s taking a date too seriously, it’s him. He asks Ellie if she wants children. My jaw is on the floor at the gall of this man.

This group is not lacking in unaware men, as Iain talks to Aesha about how well he thinks the season’s going. He had no idea that Aesha’s had to think about firing people. For the moment, the stews are doing well enough to keep their jobs, but Aesha’s still frustrated she’s stuck picking up their slack more than she should. It seems like the stews may be turning a corner in their relationship as Bri tries to commiserate with Ellie about Joe at the bar. She heard about him going back on the date and is sorry. Ellie’s glad to clear the air, but she somehow turns the conversation into a critique of Bri being oversensitive. Bri maturely takes it, and Ellie later says it was the best part of her night. Little does she know, Joe and Bri had a moment in the bathroom. After dancing together, Joe followed Bri there, saying he hasn’t picked, as if these women are apples desperately waiting on a tree for him. She tells him to fuck off, but sadly doesn’t mean it, and he joins her in the stall. We hear kissing, and it sounds like Bri stops things from going further. I can’t help but think about the bathroom scene in the latest episode of Industry , which only highlights how grody this bathroom is in comparison. At least it has full floor-to-ceiling stall doors.

The next day, Bri tells Joe no more fucking around, and he seems to get it. They’ll stop flirting. Bri’s done, but she needs his help not to cross her boundaries. I don’t have much faith in this. Joe should look to Nathan, who has been patient with Gael and doesn’t think one date means marriage. She hasn’t had time to fully resolve the feelings from her breakup but agrees to go rock climbing. Once Nathan’s four feet off the ground, he realizes he’s afraid of heights. Gael must really like him because she doesn’t get the ick and supportively talks him through rappelling down. They kiss when they return to the boat and later cuddle on a break.

The morning of the next charter, there’s a Mediterranean hurricane-esque storm, a.k.a. a Medicane, rolling in. The unused crew cabin is leaking again, and they realize there’s a leak in the bosun’s locker above it. The engineers find that the issue is a hose that wasn’t plugged. Now that they fixed it, the cabin should be usable again. The prospect of a fourth stew is exciting; we could use some new energy. Whether it’ll be a fourth stew or a replacement for Bri, whose laundry room is still too messy for Sandy’s standards, only time will tell.

Our new primary is Pamela Duke, the Florida-based owner of a “nautical-themed jewelry line.” A little research reveals it’s called Nau-T-Girl Jewelry and has a Captain Sandy collection , so I’m guessing they’ll get along. Pamela and her guests arrive with buckets of positive energy but are completely deflated when Sandy tells them they’ll be stuck on the dock for the first day because of Medicane Daniel. To make up for it, Jono goes all out with appetizers and makes sushi for lunch. He does a prawn-roll special for Jennifer because she doesn’t eat raw fish. I held my breath this whole scene, remembering the preview where someone allergic gets served fish. I’m not sure if it’s her, and I’m trying to track which plate is which like it’s a shell game. I’ll be on edge for Jono until they’re safely off the boat. I still don’t have much faith in his cooking skills, but he’s really grown on me as a personality. He may not excel at one thing, but he’s a man of many talents and interests. Jono cooks, twerks, sleeps, architects, and even, as we learn this week, does show-horse jumping. Well, he did as a kid, and he claims to use that discipline now. Personally, I prefer chefs who don’t associate making food with horses.

Aesha organizes an indoor wine-tasting excursion, but the rain is coming down fast. Sandy sees there’ll supposedly be 30 inches of rain, which is absolutely insane. A quick Google says Athens receives an average of 14 inches per year ! As the vans take Aesha, Nathan, and the guests toward the winery, the streets look like they’re flooding. The guests decide to turn around and stay on the ship, which seems like a safe choice. I’m surprised Sandy didn’t call them back first.

On the boat, alarms are going off, and I have to pause the TV twice to make sure I’m not hearing an alarm in my building. Am I paranoid, or do I just have bad spatial hearing? Probably both. Sandy thinks the boat is leaking again, so Iain returns to the leaky crew cabin. So much for getting a fourth stew. The last shot we see is him, swearing, crawling into the dripping ceiling. I imagine it’s a Coraline -type portal, and Iain’s off to a parallel world where he’s Sandy’s favorite. Will we ever see him again?

On Below Deck Med, Sandy and Aesha school—and warn—their guests

comment icon 3 comments

Below Deck Mediterranean season 9’s crew has been such a continuous disaster, from disappearing laundry to disappearing dock workers, that I’ve almost forgotten that the yacht has guests who can bring their own drama.

So it was quite a departure to spend most of the episode on this new group of guests, who were such terrors that Captain Sandy told a story that let them know she’d throw them off the boat if they continued to be meanies.

Here’s the thing, though: In terms of Below Deck guests, they were—not that bad? They kept asking for cocktails, and did some rich playacting things like demanding caviar.

All of this made for great TV, of course, though the lingering question is why these guests, and why now.

As a new day dawned, Iain described to us the “one or two little hiccups” from previous charters, giving the editors a chance for a montage of his colossal fuckups. “I’m just hoping we can have a smooth one,” he said.

They mostly did, thanks to Gael. At the end of the charter, Iain told the deckhands how they’d handle the lines while docking, and Gael said, “Iain, that’s not right.” Of course it’s not; it’s Iain. How does he remain bosun? But they made it in.

Gael and Iain went to pick up the guests on shore, and she was worried about driving the tender because she doesn’t have much experience. “Did you see that?” she said to the cameras with the excitement that a kid has for successfully depositing a poo. “I just did that!”

I do love Gael’s excitement, and her competence, and the way she’s being sassy toward Iain, telling him that they didn’t want him to work hard when they got the platforms ready without him. She really should be bosun or at least lead deckhand; experience on paper does not translate to effectiveness on deck.

Once the guests pulled up in a van, Iain said, and this is an actual quotation, “Is this guests?” I don’t know, Ian. Is it a van? Is this Greece? I don’t see guests, or a van, or Greece.

Below deck, Ellie and Bri seem to be functioning, though Ellie is still seething. “Things are not going to change because this entire time, it has been Bri fucking up,” Ellie said, forgetting that she screwed up Jono’s pants.

In real time, Ellie has expressed remorse for the way she treated Bri, which is impressive. On board, she’s improving too. “Do you have an empty washer, by any chance?” she nicely asked Bri. IF NOT THEN EMPTY ONE FOR I AM SECOND STEW YOU GIVE ME THE MACHINE I WANT!

Ellie did have an actual problem: She couldn’t find her dress, so she called Bri. “I’m pretty sure it happened before Aesha implemented this new rule so it doesn’t really count,” Bri said, and found the dress “in my bag,” unwashed. It’s absurd how bad Bri still is at this job.

My favorite metaphor from this episode came from Ellie. “We’ve been treating Bri like a baby deer,” Ellie told us, “and if I bring this dress up and get Bri fired because of it, it’d be like I shot Bambi. Doesn’t work in my favor whatsoever.” Smart strategy. Also, I’m pretty sure Bambi would be better at laundry.

Jono had food ready when the guests arrived, though it appeared to be like cheese boards, appropriate for sitting out. Just a few charters ago, our Jono was making eggs several weeks early and wrapping them in towels and putting them on the deck to keep them warm.

The guests’ demands began almost immediately. “The couches: it’d be great if they were gone,” the primary said. Does she want the deck crew to throw them overboard? It turned out she just wanted to take a photo, so Aesha and Bri moved a couch.

“Thank god, this is a shorter charter,” Aesha said, which I think is chief stew code for fuck my life.

The guests weren’t egregiously entitled assholes, like we’ve seen before, just demanding. “Can you get my martini?” the primary, Mahisha, asked Aesha. Her martini was sitting on a table immediately behind her. “Want to bring it to me?”

Mahisha also requested, on her preference sheet, “a culinary masterpiece from start to finish and rival any Michelin star restaurant.” Maybe go to a Michelin star restaurant? You’re on a yacht with one person cooking in a glorified closet.

There was a montage of guests asking for many, many drinks, with Joe and Nathan helping to deliver them, and Ellie getting spicy about demands (“The gentleman ordered before them, I’m sorry,” she said). What’s sketchy about this is the time that elapsed between all these asks. Were they asking for cocktails every five minutes? Or every 30? And on a yacht, asking for drinks and water while you’re hanging out on the deck and by the water is not unreasonable.

Mahisha, who was mentioning caviar and mother-of-pearl spoons as the tender approached the yacht, finally got her caviar, and declared, “it tastes a little like a washcloth.”

Jono said, “I didn’t shit out those eggs; some fish did.” I wish he’d told her that. What exactly did she expect him to do? Mahisha did host an OWN reality TV show, Mind Your Business with Mahisha , so maybe she’s just trying to produce some drama?

The best scene in the episode did not involve Mahisha, but her guest, Neysla, who started complaining about a butter knife when there was no bread and butter.

“This is a butter knife,” she told Aesha, who, bless her, replied, “It’s not. It’s a fish knife.”

“Oh, she’s going to school me,” Neysla said, and that she was right about. Aesha told her—during dinner service!—”Yeah, I’ve worked in service a very long time, and that’s a fish knife. It’s ‘cuz fish is not supposed to be tough it’s supposed to be smooth, so it just cuts through.”

“Well, your caviar service sucked,” Neysla said, though that appeared to have been cut in from later, as she wasn’t talking to Aesha directly. This infuriated her: “I’m okay being wrong. It’s just…” she said, suggesting Aesha made a face, and then said, “I need to calm the fuck down.” Yes, it’s a knife.

In an interview, Aesha said, “I’ve got to stand up for myself at some point.” I am glad she did! But did we miss something, because again, insisting a knife is a different knife is not even in the same arena as some of the worst Below Deck guest treatment of crew.

After dinner, before bed, Mahisha declared she was hungry and wanted fish. Aesha said the chef was in bed, and that he’d prepared sandwiches. “I don’t eat sandwiches,” Mahisha said, which is hilarious and ridiculous.

She instead ordered some berries, and as Aesha prepared those, Mahisha decided to go to bed and fell down the stairs. The boat is fighting back.

The next morning, Jono laid out a huge breakfast spread, which sat for a few minutes while the guests took photos. When she arrived, Mahisha surveyed this and said, “I do want some berries.” LOL. Here are the ones from last night, kept fresh in the trash!

After breakfast, the guests went to the Temple of Aphaia, where I expected them to tell random Greek people that what they were seeing were not ancient ruins.

Of course, they actually just wanted another photo shoot. There was a pleasant moment of levity when the guests realized Ellie and Joe were flirting, and took pictures of Ellie kissing Joe. “The guests are picking up on the chemistry between us kind of validates what I’ve been sensing this entire time,” Ellie said.

In this episode’s sad puppy content, Gael told Nathan, “Please don’t turn out to be a dick,” and he said, “I won’t hurt you.”

And then Sandy’s girlfriend Leah texted her, “I need to talk to you about Bailey,” their dog, who died. Uh, content warning, please?! Sandy told us that her parents also died while she was sailing, so the dog’s death “brings up all your losses.”

Charter guest Mike, a former NBA player, told Captain Sandy, “Your staff that you have here, they’re really, really good—they’re top-notch.”

That was very nice! And then Sandy used that moment, for some reason, to deliver her TED Talk. “If you beat character down, you’re going to kill their spirit,” she began. “But if you’re gracious and you’re thankful, you’re going to build ’em up and they’re going to want to do more for you. I had a client that spent a million Euros on a charter; they were so rude to my crew, I pulled the primary in and I said, I’ll cancel your charter tomorrow…”

Mahisha said “oh!” and then downed her drink.

“…if you treat my staff like that again,” Sandy continued. “They turned it around like that.” This is an amazing story, and also great that Sandy is sticking up for her crew. But where has this energy been for, I don’t know, every other charter ever?!

To have a bunch of rich white people on yachts acting like drunken, entitled, sometimes violent assholes for years and years, and then to finally draw a line when there’s a group of Black charter guests who—ask for a lot of drinks, want furniture rearranged, and don’t understand silverware? Not a good look.

“I’m, like, over this conversation,” Neysla said and left. In an interview, Sandy asked us, “Did I get my point across?” Apparently!

Meanwhile, Jono was preparing an “Asian fusion feast,” and described spending “a week in Ho Chi Minh City at a master chef’s farm” and cooking multiple times per day. Wait, this is Jono talking about learning about food , not his lack of food knowledge?! “The guests want some fancy shit and nothing says rich motherfucker like some duck for lunch,” he added. Oh there you are—welcome back, Jono. “We fancy out hererrr.” Okay, got it, Jono, that’s enough.

The guests loved it, and soon it was time for them to depart. On the dock, Mahisha praised Jono’s food, and then said, “to my love birds, I can’t wait to see what happens later … you know who you are.”

She added, “to all the other supporting crew, you were just phenonemal, so thank you. I don’ think we had any issues, did we?” Aesha said, “Were we on the same charter? … This is so confusing.” The guests tipped $20,000, so no issues there.

“I know this was a shit charter guest-wise,” Aesha told her stews. ” I want us to finish like this,” and they all held hands.

With all this happiness, what’s going to go wrong? Oh, Joe, of course. Exactly one charter after singing a song about hooking up with both Bri and Ellie , Joe said in the crew mess, “for fuck’s sake, what did I do? I don’t even want either of them,” Joe said. Bri came around the corner, they all got quiet, and Bri said, “that hurts me.” Then she cut their pants up and threw them in the ocean.

A few seconds later, Joe told Bri: “Honestly, I do care. I do.” Then Ellie asked him on a date, and he said yes. This guy. I’d call him a fuckboy but that’d be giving him too much credit.

Joe climbed behind Nathan on a jet ski—I could not make up a better image if I tried—and babbled a lot about liking Ellie but not wanting to date: “I’ve already said yes, but I don’t want to go on it.”

As if the jet ski humping wasn’t enough bromance, Joe and Nathan sat for a joint interview when Nathan said, “Joe’s afraid to go on the date” and Joe said, “because I’m genuinely petrified of her.”

There may be some truth to that. Gael, who we know is the smartest one among them, said, “I feel like Ellie is the kind of girl, scorned, is going to burn the whole boat down.”

That may happen, as the cliffhanger was Ellie saying to Joe, “Sir, are you excited? … I am, like, ready to go.”

Joe sat on her bed and said, “Let’s talk. Um… I don’t want any strings attached. to be honest, I feel a lot of pressure, and I don’t want a date.” RIP motor yacht Mustique.

Those 2 female guests were pretty bad. Legends in their own minds.

But the men were awesome! I can’t wait to see Ellie’s reaction to him cancelling the date!

Okay, this:

“The guests’ demands began almost immediately. “The couches: it’d be great if they were gone,” the primary said. Does she want the deck crew to throw them overboard?”

made me laugh myself stupid! (which, admittedly, didn’t take much laughing… )

Nookie Mistake

Deckhand Jean-Luc tries to rebound after losing two guests, but his inability to sleep in his undersized bunk interferes with his work and his attitude. When the dust settles, the crew gives the guests a lot to mullet over as they pull together a rip-roarin’ 80s rock party. A confrontation about pita bread between Chef Natasha and Chief Stew Daisy doesn’t add up. Captain Glenn pushes the boat hard during a lively sail as primary charter guest Nikki’s father blesses the group with favorable winds. The crew goes absolutely wild during their first night off, and First Mate Gary makes a drunken decision that could have dire consequences for the deck team.
