If there’s one thing reality TV producers know how to do, it’s stir up romance.
After all, feelings don’t just disappear once the crew disembarks!
The Bravo world is a small one and it’s even smaller at sea!
Gary King and Daisy Kelliher
What’s hotter than a love triangle?
A love triangle on a yacht where everyone lives in a tiny confined space.
At the time, Kelliher had struck up a romance with fellow crew member, Colin MacRae.
“We have slept together,” she said, according toBravo TV.
She went on to explain that it happened twice during the break between Season 3 and Season 4.
Needless to say, MacRae was not impressed and swiftly left the room.
Her indecision incensed White, who sent her some pretty derogatory text messages as a result.
As for why Webb and White kept their prior entanglement a secret?
According to the stewardess, she simply didn’t want the crew to look at them differently.
It was just unfortunate."
It was a very messy situation."
They can all agree on that one!
Their romance was so serious that Stirrup even had Flood’s face tattooed on his arm.
As for whether there’s any bad blood between the pair post-split, it seems to be smooth sailing.
It’s exactly him to a tee, like it’s super goofy, super charming, you know?
He just does what he wants to do.
So, it was really nice to see that he was exactly how he is in normal life."
And their romance wasn’t just a flash in the pan.
Baker and White stayed together for around two years before White toldShowbiz CheatSheetthat she was single.
There’s no setting that."
“Stalker spilled the tea to Bravo Confessionals, “He actually slid into my DMs.
From there, the exchange snowballed, leaving Stalker with the impression that their connection was something special.
She went on to explain, “A domino effect thing happened where things progressed really quickly.
And I haven’t dated anyone or been this emotionally invested in someone in years.
However, Westergaard must have had different feelings about their connection.
Stalker told Bravo in the same interview that she was left hysterically crying over the reality star’s actions.
She quickly gained a reputation as a no-nonsense, hard-working crew member, but what about her romantic life?
Unlike some of her staff members, Chastain tended to steer clear of relationship drama while on charter.
But that doesn’t mean she didn’t find a love connection.
I am so proud of who you have become and the mother you will soon be.”
The yachtie explained how the entire situation went down.
“It was really cute.
In St. Thomas, they wear these bangle bracelets.
It has like a little horseshoe on it or like a hook.
And if it’s facing outward, it means you’re open.
And if it’s facing the other way, it means that you’re taken.
So when he gave me the bracelet, he put it on me with the horseshoe, meaning closed.
And I looked at him like, ‘Oh!’
And he’s like, ‘Yeah.’
I was like, ‘Aw, that’s so cute.'”
“This is sea life,” she said.
So if it doesn’t continue romantically … no one’s feelings are going to be hurt.”
Where the couple stands as of 2023 remains a mystery.
After all, good relationship drama is the key to any successful season just ask the production team.
Needless to say, Captain Lee Rosbach didn’t find the situation amusing and sent her packing.
As for their relationship, McHarg explained it didn’t exactly end well when he appeared onthe show.
“My longest relationship was with Elizabeth Frankini.
We were together on and off for four years.
Eddie Lucas and Rocky Dakota
It’s time for a bonus entry!
Season 3 of “Below Deck” was arguably one of the best seasons the franchise has ever seen.
Lovable bosun Eddie Lucas got major heart eyes for whacky, wild, and unpredictable stew, Rocky Dakota.
Ultimately, this steamy encounter changed the way the show was shot for good.
Prior to this hookup, cameras weren’t set up in the laundry room.
Production likely thought there was simply no need for it.
Who wants to see stewardesses folding Captain Lee Rosbach’s underpants?
It may not have strictly been off-screen, but this boatmance made incredible waves that impacted the entire franchise.
