Which ‘Below Deck’ Couples Are Still Together After Finding Romance During Charter Season?

When working side by side with someone 24 hours a day for six to eight weeks straight in cramped conditions, it’s easy to catch feelings ! That’s what’s happened to a number of crew members on the Below Deck franchise, who have fallen for each other while working during charter season. So, which boatmances have stood the test of time, as well as distance?

Whether it’s Below Deck , Below Deck Mediterranean , Below Deck Sailing Yacht or Below Deck Down Under , getting a group of young people from across the globe together who love to work hard and party harder is a recipe for hookup action. And while there have been plenty of frisky physical escapades between crew mates, some have turned into actual couples .

The most recent duo to reveal they were dating after leaving the show was Ben Willoughby and Sunny Marquis , much to the shock of fans.

Ben Willoughby and Sunny Marquis

Bosun Ben ended up in another boatmance in Below Deck season 11. However, he made it clear to lead deckhand Sunny that they were basically a hookup and nothing more. At one point, he even called ex-girlfriend Camille Lamb from season 10 to ask if she wanted to hang out when he returned to Florida after the charter season. When she shot him down, Ben continued to have a passionate physical romance with Sunny, who had fallen hard for her boss, but didn’t want to get emotionally involved. The pair left the St. David together with the intention of seeing where things might go, although viewers were fairly convinced after Ben’s behavior all season that they were just a showmance.

Fans were floored when the day after the season finale aired on May 27, 2024, Ben took to Instagram to reveal the pair were dating and very much together.

“Yes, you guessed it, we are still together! Finally we can let go of the secrecy that has been held for the past 15 months,” he wrote in the caption of a series of photos showing the pair.

“We want to thank you all for the support throughout season 11 @belowdeckbravo. It’s been a rollercoaster to relive the season and the beginning of a relationship. We ended up traveling the globe together last year and Sunny made her way to Australia for Christmas. Anyways, hoping you all enjoyed the season,” Ben added.

Culver Bradbury and Jaimee Neale

The deckhand fell hard for stew Jaimee when she came aboard the Northern Star halfway through  Below Deck Down Under  season 2. Soon they were flirting and making out, and Culver decided he wanted to take things to the next level. He asked Jamie to be his girlfriend via a handwritten card where he professed her feelings for her and had her check off a “yes” or “no” box. Feeling pressured, Jamiee checked “yes” although she thought they were moving too fast after knowing each other for only a few weeks. That night, the pair got their own guest room aboard the boat to be intimate for the first time.

Their romance had the potential of continuing through another charter season, as one of Culver’s former captains inquired about hiring him for the summer Mediterranean season and needed a stew as well, to which the Maryland native recommended his girlfriend. While Jamiee wasn’t sure if she wanted their boatmance to continue aboard another vessel, she agreed, in part because she’d always wanted to work and play in the Med and was willing to have another adventure with Culver.

Jaimee became deeply attracted to handsome new lead deckhand  Luka Brunton  when he arrived to work on the final charters of the season, regretting getting together with Culver so quickly. The pair drunkenly kissed in a bar after the charter season ended, which Jaimee confessed to Culver, claiming she didn’t remember it. The duo left the boat as a couple although their Med offer fell through. Chief stew Aesha Scott revealed during  Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen  following the September 18, 2023, finale that the pair took a month-long road trip along Australia’s Western Coastline but that the couple did not mesh well off the boat and called it quits.

João Franco and Tzarina Mace-Ralph

Chef Tzarina was shocked when João came aboard as the Northern Star’s second officer after bosun Luke Jones was fired during Below Deck Down Under season 2. The pair had known each other for several years, as he hooked up with one of her close friends while she had a fling with one of his pals. “Cheffy” as she was known on the boat didn’t think highly of him after how he treated her friend, but João proved he was a changed man as the two grew close, as he showed off his caring and tender side. While the Zimbabwe native wanted to pursue a boatmance, Tzarina fought back her feelings as to not upset her friend until the September 4, 2023 episode of the show where they finally made out and hooked up.

The pair are no longer together, as João celebrated his one-year dating anniversary on June 12, 2023 with fellow yachtie Domi Tiesi , as they work on the same boat. Domi shared a gushing Instagram post about their life together.

“One year …  I fell for you so quick and so strong, there was no turning back even after the first week and I feel the same way now. I never thought a year can pass by so quickly. If you love every moment of it, it just flies by… we have traveled to over 20 countries, lived in 2 and are now exploring the seas together working side by side. I love you and our adventures and can’t wait for all the years to come,” she wrote.

Daisy Kelliher and Colin MacRae

Season 4 of Below Deck Sailing Yacht found chief engineer Colin without a girlfriend back home for the first time in three seasons. He and chief stew Daisy found themselves drawn into a full-on boatmance.

“I knew Colin was single and there’s kind of always been something between me and Colin. So, in a way I was surprised, but I also wasn’t surprised, if that makes sense,” she told In Touch exclusively ahead of the season premiere.

“There were little moments that we’d like maybe brush hands or look at each other that I don’t think anyone else really picked up on. But I would kind of be like, oh a moment that lasted a little bit longer and it’s like, ‘is this something?’” she explained, adding, “But he always had a girlfriend, so I always just friend zoned in the whole situation and never kind of expected anything more.”

The pair went from making out to sleeping in each other’s bunks in no time flat. But their bliss hit a major roadbump when Daisy revealed that she and first mate Gary King slept together twice after season 3 ended.

“You f–ked Gary?” Colin asked her incredulously, telling her it was “bulls–t” that they secretly hooked up and neither Daisy nor Gary told him before the pair embarked on a relationship.

“The chemistry that they have, the way that they look at each other, I thought it was all friends. It all makes sense now,” an angry Colin said in a confessional.

Gary, who was hooking up with junior stew Mads Herrera during the season, assuring Colin there was nothing going on between him and Daisy, despite the two having playful hugs and kisses. After much consideration, Colin agreed to continue his boatmance with the Dublin native after she assured him there was nothing going on with her longtime crew mate. But things came to a head in the June 19, 2023, episode when she accidentally called Colin “Gary” while the pair were in bed.

He stormed out of the bunk and Daisy later explained to Gary of the love triangle, “There’s two of you in my head. You’re both f–king with my head. I want you out of my head.”

“In regard to worrying about their friendship, I did worry. I definitely didn’t want to break up a friendship or anything like that. That’s the last thing I would’ve wanted. I was kind of expecting Gary to maybe kick off a bit, but not quite to the extent he did,” Daisy explained in her exclusive interview.

Gary King and Daisy Kelliher

While on season 3 of Below Deck Sailing Yacht , Gary hooked up with several different shipmates, including a hot tub makeout session with chief stew Daisy. Despite his several trysts, Gary said he was in love with Daisy. However, despite a moment during the June 2022 reunion episode where they shared an embrace, Daisy set the record straight that they were just friends. She told E! News in February, “Our relationship is very platonic. We care about each other and like I said we’re both affectionate people, so affection can sometimes lead to kissing. But no, we’re just friends.”

During season 4, it was revealed that the two did more than just make out. “Having sex with you was f–king amazing,” Gary confessed after Daisy and chief engineer Colin had embarked on a boatmance, made all the more complicated by the fact that he was Gary’s best friend.

Daisy eventually revealed to Colin that she and Gary hooked up in Menorca, Spain, after season 3 wrapped, and again in California after a trip to Disneyland. It made Colin re-evaluate his romance with Daisy, especially since she and Gary still had a deeply flirtatious relationship. Things were made even worse when Daisy called Colin by Gary’s name while the pair were in bed together.

Gary told In Touch exclusively  ahead of the season that he was shocked by Daisy and his close pal’s romance. “Maybe Colin’s just a better person than I am. Maybe Daisy sees something more in him that she sees in me,” he explained, noting he wasn’t bitter about it.

“The only thing I can do is be supportive. They’re both good friends of mine, but it did come as a massive shock to me,” the South Africa native added.

Ben Willoughby and Camille Lamb

The  Below Deck  season 10 deckhand and the controversial deck/stewardess immediately clicked romantically, making out on the group’s first dinner out and later took their passion to the St. David’s hot tub. By the time the fourth charter rolled around, Ben and Camille had sex in his bunk after a boozy off-duty evening, much to the horror of his roommate, Tony Duarte , who was awake in the bunk below them. Earlier in the evening, Ben confessed that he hadn’t had a relationship in more than two and a half years and was really enjoying being with Camille.

At the time of their hookup, Camille was on the verge of getting fired by Captain Sandy Yawn for her poor attitude and lack of interest in any of her work duties, and ended up getting the boot as Ben was falling hard for her.

The pair kept in touch and made plans to take a vacation together to the Dominican Republic once charter season had ended. The March 20, 2023, season finale saw Ben looking forward to meeting up with Camille again after being tempted by replacement stew Leigh-Ann Smith. He let fans know what happened with their romance once the cameras stopped rolling.

“Dominican Republic was something we both needed to say the least, we genuinely had a spark comparable to that of a primary school crush,” Ben wrote in a March 21  Instagram  post showing video from their getaway. “Sadly, soon after we decided that this wasn’t meant to be and being honest that was a very tough pill to swallow. We are not together anymore in a perfect world it would have been something of a fairytale,” he added. However, Ben cherished the romance they had.

“We both organically fell in love with one another and had many, many memories to share throughout this whole @belowdeckbravo journey,” he continued. “My advice to anyone out there is to follow your heart in any direction is may lead even if you know it may hurt, because that makes you….. you…. At the end of the day! Always with love Ben & Camille.”

Ben Willoughby and Leigh-Ann Smith

After Alissa Humber’s firing, Leigh-Ann joined the St. David interior crew only to find her year-long sexting pal Ben was a crew member aboard the ship. It was the first time the two met in person after months of flirting and sending naked photos to each other. Their chemistry proved to be even more intense in person than online, and Leigh-Ann was determined to make something happen, even though Ben was still in contact with Camille.

The Australia native had a post-charter season trip to the Dominican Republic planned with Camille, but he eventually realized that their romance wouldn’t last long afterwards.

“Part of me’s just like, ‘Live in the moment.’ I haven’t got a title with Camille. Why don’t you just see what happens?” Ben said in a teaser for the March 20 episode. He’s also seen passionately making out with Leigh-Ann and they later head into a guest cabin together and close the door, indicating they hooked up before the season ended.

But it wasn’t meant to be. Despite some kissing and snuggling on their final night together before leaving the St. David for good , Ben admitted he was too crazy about Camille to sleep with Leigh-Ann, much to her disappointment. They went their separate ways and friends and vowed to stay in touch.

The pair still appear to be friendly, as Leigh-Ann shared a photo from a beach outing during the second to last charter with her arm around Ben in a March 6, 2023, Instagram post. “Could you even get a better beach set up crew?” she asked in the caption while tagging Ben and Katie.

Ross McHarg and Katie Glaser

The  Below Deck season 10 bosun and his deckhand had chemistry from the start, kissing after an early beach outing. But Ross’ wandering eye caused him to have an ongoing flirtation with stew Alissa Humber , especially after drinking too much during crew dinners and partying aboard the yacht post-charter.

Ross and Katie eventually had sex in a guest cabin, and he decided to cut off the love triangle with Alissa. “I’ve made an active decision with Katie that her and I are going to be just her and I,” he explained in the February 13, 2023, episode. While the pair enjoyed a fun boatmance, it didn’t continue once the season ended.

Before the final charter of the season, Ross decided their attempt at a relationship wasn’t working, as they had given it “three to four” tries and the pair kept ending up in fights where Katie felt he disrespected her. The two decided to enjoy the short time they had left aboard the St. David before parting ways.

“We both live on opposite sides of the world — he went his way after the show and I went mine,” Floridian Katie told  E! News  of the Asia-based Englishman “At the end of the day we decided that it was what it was on the boat and after the boat we both went our separate ways,” she continued, while adding, “I am single. I’m just enjoying life right now.”

Ross admitted earlier in the season that his longest romance was with  Below Deck  season 8 stew  Elizabeth Frankini . “We were together on and off for four years. I guess we just broke each other’s hearts on multiple occasions in that relationship, which is why I don’t want a relationship at the moment,” he said in a confessional before deciding to commit to Katie.

Storm Smith and Natalya Scudder

Calling her his “kryptonite”, the provisional bosun had a thing for the brunette Australian stewardess on season 7. The two exchanged cheeky banter on their nights out and things only started heating up when the pair spent their evenings sleeping in the same cabin.

“I’ve never had good experiences with boyfriends,” she confessed during a solo confessional with producers in August 2022. “So, I have got trust issues, but with Storm, we’re a little bit romantic.” 

While the two shared a steamy romance during the charter season, Storm has seemingly gone Instagram official with a new girlfriend following filming. 

“Happy birthday boks,” he shared in a birthday tribute to his new girlfriend in July 2022, alongside loved-up pictures of them on vacation in Lake Como, Italy. “Life is beautiful with ya Chloe.”

Natasha Webb and Dave White

The chief stewardess and chef of Below Deck Mediterranean season 7 find themselves in a sticky situation after they become romantically involved on board. The pair previously worked on a boat together and told the fellow crew they were just “friends” despite sharing clear chemistry.

“On our last boat, me and Tash, we got together,” the chef explained to producers in a July 2022 episode. “Tash asked me to keep it a secret because she was still with her boyfriend, but I’m struggling to keep it a secret.”

However, after a drunk night, Dave decides he can’t keep up with the lie and tells the crew of their past. Not happy with Natasha’s reaction, he sends her heated text messages that almost get him fired. 

Following a meeting with Captain Sandy, the two continued to awkwardly cohabitate in their work environment. 

In August 2022, Natasha revealed she was in a new relationship when she thanked him for his support following her appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen .

“Over half a million of you live viewers watching Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Bravo last Monday, thank you so much to each and everyone one of you for watching us & all your support & beautiful kind messages,” she shared alongside a carousel of photos of her trip to New York for filming. “I want to thank all my family & friends truly for your support throughout this whole journey … to my absolutely amazing supportive boyfriend, Max, big sister & gorgeous Mama & Dad, I wouldn’t be who I am today without you all.”

Malia White and Jake Baker

Though the hunky engineer was only seen onscreen briefly during Below Deck Med season 6, he and bosun Malia clicked. Once filming ended, the pair embarked on a romance that Malia revealed during a September 27, 2021, appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen . She shared that Jake made the first move and that they didn’t become an item until after filming for the season had ended. The couple is still going strong, seen above in an Instagram photo she posted from the Florida Keys on February 13, 2022.

However, by October, it seems things have gotten shaky between Jake and Malia. The Florida native seemingly scrubbed her Instagram of photos of her partner and shared cryptic quotes via her Instagram Story hinting at a possible split. 

“Remember the time you confused a life lesson for a soulmate?” one message read, while she added “100%” as a caption. In another slide, she uploaded a photo of her travels, captioning the picture, “Ready for my next chapter.”

Malia confirmed in December 2022 that she and Jake had broken up. The yachtie became the subject of rumors that she was involved with Below Deck Med season six chief stew Katie Flood , as the pair shared numerous photos with each other on their respective Instagram accounts.

Katie addressed the situation in a May 2023, Instagram Q&A when a fan asked if the ladies were dating.

“No. We are best friends that work and live together and have a lot of other amazing opportunities that we get to do together. We are so [lucky] to have each other and get to work towards our goals, dreams and our futures side by side of each other. She’s my work wifey for life,” Katie wrote.

Paget Berry and Ciara Duggan

The first Below Deck crew mate engagement … that is no more!  Paget and Ciara had worked together on yachts for three out of their five years as a couple, but fans got to know the pair on season 1 of  Below Deck Sailing Yacht . First mate Paget proposed to deckhand Ciara on July 9, 2020, with the couple each sharing celebratory photos to their respective Instagram accounts.

There wasn’t a happily ever after though, as Ciara revealed to Us Weekly in April 2021 that the pair had split the prior December, explaining, “I loved him, but I think I was not in love.”

She added that not being in close quarters on a boat with Paget made her see their relationship differently. “There were a lot of reasons that it kind of broke down. Being in France, we weren’t quarantining, we weren’t stuck together or anything like that,” she told the publication. “We were there just kind of living life, but you know, I was taking temporary jobs and I just kind of realized throughout taking those jobs that I was happier on my own for a lot of reasons.”

As for Paget, following his relationship with Ciara, the England native moved on into a new relationship with his girlfriend, Johana Mills. The pair announced their engagement on August 21, 2022. 

“I was very lucky myself to meet a ‘Harbor town girl’ last year who showed me the sights and sounds of Newport when I first arrived on a boat,” he wrote alongside a series of loved-up clips of their adventures traveling the world. “There is no one I’d rather laugh, life with, cry, dance, and attempt all sorts of accents with than you Johana, I am so proud of you and all that you are achieving, and I am super stoked to be your fiancé and future husband.”

Dani Soares and Jean-Luc Cerza Lanaux

The pair’s onboard passion was adorable, as Dani mended her broken heart with eight-years younger JL, who admittedly had never been in a real relationship with a woman. Once the charter season ended, Dani found out she was pregnant, which she revealed to fans via Instagram in April 2021 while their season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht was still airing on Bravo!

JL didn’t want to commit to fatherhood until a paternity test was done, which apparently took quite a while to do internationally. He didn’t admit to being the father of Dani’s daughter Lilly Rose until a January 19, 2022, Instagram post. JL pledged that even though he would be away for extended periods at sea while Dani was in Sydney, Australia, raising Lilly, he would do his best to be there “for the sake of our daughter as she needs both parents in her life.”

Malia White and Tom Checketts

It was Malia’s boyfriend to the rescue during season 5 of  Below Deck Med  when Captain Sandy Yawn fired her existing chef mid-season. Chef Tom came aboard the Lady Michelle to finish out the charters, with Malia frequently stepping into the gallery to help the easily frazzled cook. His quick temper turned off many other crew members, driving one to tears. The pair remained a couple after the season ended but went to work on separate boats. Tom allegedly cheated on Malia with one of his new shipmates, causing the bosun to break things off.

Aesha Scott and Jack Stirrup

One of the sweetest boatmances occurred on Below Deck Med season 4 between second stew Aesha and deckhand Jack. Their flirtation turned into a a full-on romance, with Jack enlisting fellow crew mates to help him pull off a grand gesture in asking Aesha to officially be his girlfriend. She happily accepted, and it seemed as if the two lovebirds would sail off into the sunset to a happy post-season life together.

But once the charter was over, Jack ghosted Aesha. He revealed during the Bravo After Show on October 1, 2019, that when he got home to England, “I thought it was a bit of a forced situation. It wasn’t reality. I thought about it all and called it a day.” Aesha explained on the same show that Jack had asked her to come to London but that he needed to work out dates because he had a wedding to attend. She then saw on his social media that he brought another woman to the event who turned out to be his girlfriend … a girlfriend he had while he was still on the yacht romancing Aesha! After she busted Jack on it, “Next thing I know, I’m blocked off everything and he’s never spoken to me again,” the Kiwi beauty shared.

Rob Westergaard and Jessica More

These two incredibly attractive yachties from season 5 of Below Deck Med ended up in a toxic relationship. Rob quickly told Jess he was in love with her, then began to pull back his affection. The back and forth of passion and coldness wore on the stewardess, leaving her in tears for much of the season. Despite their fights, the pair took a trip to Bali after charter season ended, where it was clear their romance had run its course.

“It didn’t end on the best note, and we’re still not in the best place,” Jess explained during the Bravo After Show  in October 2020. “It just keeps seeming to build, my disappointment for somebody that I really, truly cared about and loved and thought that I was gonna marry and spend the rest of my life with. So, to go from that to just continually finding out things new every single day is something that’s really hard for me and disappointing.”

Elizabeth Frankini and James Hough

The pair’s chemistry was immediate from the start, and their romance led to an infamous night of passion in one of the guest cabins during season 8 of Below Deck . Usage of the room required permission from superiors, with both getting stern warnings from their bosses. But as the season progressed, second stew Elizabeth’s feelings for deckhand James grew stronger, while his seemed to wane. At one point, she only semi-joked that he should propose to her and they should get married.

James continued to pull away, not even give her any sweet acknowledgement when she celebrated her 30th birthday aboard My Seanna. He caught a break when Elizabeth was fired for too many mistakes on the job and had to leave the yacht. However, the following day, the COVID-19 outbreak caused the final two charters of the season to cancel their trips, ending the season for all the crew who scrambled to get back to their home countries from Antigua before lockdowns began.

Ashton Pienaar and Laura Betancourt

The deckhand turned season 7 bosun and the stew had a boatmance during season 6 of Below Deck .  The couple even left My Seanna by walking off  the vessel hand in hand into what could have been a potential land romance. But Laura revealed during the show’s reunion that the two had become “dear friends.”

“I’d love to say I was involved with somebody, but I think my wife is still out there somewhere trying to find me,” Ashton told Bravo before the taping, adding, “She’s just taking her time.” He finally found her in Sarah McAlpine, an interior designer from North Carolina, as he announced their engagement on September 27, 2022.

Ben Robinson and Emily Warburton-Adams

Chef Ben had previous flirtations and one hookup on prior seasons of  Below Deck  before falling for stew and fellow Brit Emily on season 4. They had an actual romance, complete with going on dates while in port. “I felt very close to him very quickly. He was British and he made me laugh, and I do like an older guy,” Emily later revealed on  Life After Bravo  in May 2020. She added, “It was a real relationship for me. It just happened to have been aired on TV.”

After filming ended, Emily moved in with Ben at his Fort Lauderdale, Florida, home. The pair lived together for more than a year, as Emily left yachting and helped Ben at his various cooking events in the U.S. But Emily’s love of her native London eventually caused the pair to break up. “We just grew apart a bit. I was traveling back here. There’s not a lot for him to come back here for. So, we just grew apart,” she said of their split, adding, “We’re still very close now. He’s been a huge crutch and support through everything. I’ll always love him.” Ben is officially off the market as of May 2023, when he announced his engagement to longtime girlfriend  Kiara Cabral . Next to an  Instagram post  of the couple, he wrote, “After a wonderful four-year relationship with my love Kiara I decided to take the next step and propose. ” “I feel like the luckiest man alive! Thank you to my friends and family for all of your support. I couldn’t have done it without you, and obviously thank you to Kiara for saying yes and making an honest man out of me, I love you,” Ben added.

Jenna MacGillivray and Adam Glick

The chief stew and chef on season 1 of  Below Deck Sailing Yacht  had a passionate romance that cooled for Adam, despite Jenna’s attempt to keep the spark alive by leaving him love notes. By the end of the season, she still held out hope that they would continue their romance after finishing up work on Parsifal III, but Adam thought otherwise. While discussing their post season plans, the cook told her, “I’m gonna get the f—k off this boat, hop in my van, and drive away,” as Jenna began to cry about his view of the future without her in it.

In a May 5, 2020, Instagram post, Jenna seemed to unpack her heartbreak from Adam by writing, “No matter how many times I fall, I get up and get the desire to love again. At times I have absolutely put love and that fairytale above anything else, including myself. I have lost my way, lost what I needed.

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.

Wait, Is 'Below Deck's Parker McCown Really Still Breastfed?

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

The current season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht is proving to be even more exciting than the original show and its Mediterranean spinoff — in part because it's so much more challenging to man a sailing vessel than it is a regular motorboat.

But another aspect that's making this season incredibly enjoyable is the hilarious cast who works on the exterior and interior of the yacht. And if we had to pick, we'd select potential future couple Madison Stalker and Parker McCown as the most amusing on deck.

Deckhand Parker McCown is half insufferable, half endearingly quirky, and somehow always thinks he knows better than the rest of the exterior crew, even though he's the greenest on board. 

In fact, the rest of the team has been teasing him since the series premiered, and many viewers who tuned into the trailer are still confused as to whether or not Parker is breastfed . 

Keep reading for the definitive answer to that question, as well as some necessary context.

Is Parker McCown from 'Below Deck Sailing Yacht' breastfed?

As soon as we were introduced to the latest sailing addition to our beloved Below Deck franchise, rumors began swirling about whether or not Parker was breastfed.

For context, the buildup began when the teaser for the season was released. In a heated moment at the very end, Parker asks first mate Paget Berry, "Do you think it's funny that I'm still breastfed by my mother? Do you think that's funny?"

View this post on Instagram Parker is at the end of his rope – and this time, we're not making a sailing reference. 😳 FINALLY find out what goes down on an all new #BelowDeckSailing tonight at 9/8c. A post shared by Below Deck (@belowdeckbravo) on Apr 13, 2020 at 11:30am PDT

Paget responds, "Yeah, a little bit." And Parker, fuming, goes, "All right, well, f--k you, then."

In an interview with CheatSheet , Parker cleared up speculations and gave a definitive answer. "No, I'm not still breastfed by my mother," he shared. 

The deckhand added, "But that comment definitely stems from a magnificent buildup in the season, and you are just going to have to stay tuned to see what goes down. It's definitely entertaining."

Who started the rumor that Parker was breastfed?

A recent episode of Sailing Yacht finally revealed where this recurring joke started. In one of the many intimate moments chief stewardess Jenna MacGillivray shared in the galley with chef Adam Glick, she poked fun at how Parker is always running his mouth without really knowing what he's saying.

"Parker should just not talk," she told her crush. "Just keep his mouth on his mom's teat, we're good." 

That moment apparently snowballed into something of an inside joke among the yachties aboard Parsifal III. 

Jenna even tells Parker as much when he's confiding in her that Maddie made him breakfast. "Don't be mean to me," he tells the chief stew at one point, and Jenna admits she's been poking fun at him with the rest of the crew.

"There have been times that I've referenced your mom potentially breastfeeding you," she tells him, laughing. "Just to be honest."

"Jesus," he responds. "Like, currently?"

We're relieved to learn that Parker is A) not an adult still being breastfed by his mom, and B) that he was in on the joke all season long.

Don't miss Below Deck Sailing Yacht Mondays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.

The Golden Bachelorette Premiere Sparks Hope In Bachelor Nation After Heartbreaker Gerry Turner's Disastrous Season

Big brother 26 week 9 power of veto ceremony results (spoilers), 90 day fiancé’s jovi dufren reveals devastating relationship update with yara zaya.

After he left Greece in season one of  Below Deck Sailing Yacht , first mate Paget Berry has continued working in the yachting industry. During his time on the show, Paget got to work side-by-side with his former girlfriend Ciara Duggan. At times, they clashed while working on deck, but overall, they seemed to have a great working relationship. Besides working alongside his girlfriend, Paget also had Parker McCown as one of his deckhands.

During the season, Paget had a difficult time with his deck team, including Ciara. However, once Parker left and was replaced by Christopher Miller, it seems the deck team started to get along and began to create a stronger bond. However, the first mate became very close with crew members outside of his team. He and third stew Georgia Grobler had a bit of a flirtatious back and forth with each other. In fact, Georgia began to develop feelings for Paget at one point. Nonetheless, nothing came of their innocent flirts, and Paget left the boat with Ciara still by his side.

So, what has Paget been up to since he left Parsafil III? Shortly after the show was done airing, Paget proposed to Ciara while in Italy in July 2020. He shared to his  Instagram   page a series of images of the couple kissing and holding a bottle of champagne to celebrate the happy news. Shortly after their engagement, the pair separated, as Ciara got a chief stew job on a 58-meter sailing yacht in Scotland. Not too long after that, the two were reunited in France. After a nine-month-long engagement,  Us Weekly  confirmed in April 2021 that the two had split .

Ciara revealed the news on social media after a fan commented on her photo, asking if she and Paget were still together. " No, " she replied, noting, " Things happen. We’re still on good terms and wish each other nothing but the best ." The pair began dating in 2016 when Paget was working on Ciara's family's boat . They dated for almost five years before calling it quits. However, the end of their relationship doesn't seem to be slowing down Paget. He recently shared pictures on Instagram of himself in Trinidad and Tobago and Antigua and Barbuda. Plus, there are several posts about his incredibly difficult-looking workouts. In fact, Paget loves to exercise as he considers it one of the best therapy sessions he's ever had.

Paget's life has been through many ups and downs since departing Greece following season one of Below Deck Sailing Yacht . A year after the show was filmed, he became engaged to his long-time girlfriend, lived in a foreign country together, and ultimately experienced a breakup. Maybe Paget will return for season three and allow the viewers to get to know Paget as a single man.

Here's What Happened Between Jenna and Madison After the Below Deck Sailing Yacht Reunion

Jenna MacGillivray opens up about her tearful apology to Madison Stalker and their post-reunion conversation.

Andy Cohen revisited the biggest moments of Season 1 of Below Deck Sailing Yacht when the whole Parsifal III crew reunited on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen: @ Home on June 1. The yachties looked back on the most-talked-about moments of the season, from Paget Berry and Georgia Grobler 's flirting to Parker McCown 's resignation to Adam Glick and Jenna MacGillivray 's relationship .

How to Watch

Watch Below Deck Sailing Yacht on Bravo on Monday, October 7 at 9/8c and next day on  Peacock . Catch up on the Bravo app . 

However, the conflict reached new heights when it came time to break down all the drama in the interior this season, especially Jenna and Madison Stalker 's working relationship. We caught up with Jenna via video chat on June 2, the day after the Below Deck Sailing Yacht reunion aired, and asked how she felt things went with Madison during the virtual sit-down.

"The same as they always do," Jenna said in our new video series  The Final Word , which you can view, above. "I think it's very clear that her and I are just fire and ice, and we're just not gonna be on the same page, and that's OK."

During the reunion, Madison confronted Jenna about how much she hurt her this season, expressing that she felt "excluded" by the chief stew and that she made her "life a living hell." "Well, to be honest, I'm not responsible for that. Tell me exactly how I bullied you to the extent that you felt that you needed to cry every night or that I excluded you," Jenna responded to the claims Madison made during the reunion. "Like I said, we were all joking and laughing together all the time, and literally everyone but Madison and Parker were on board with that. We'll continue joking around, and we weren't joking about them. To be honest, I never excluded her. I didn't have anything in common with her."

Below Deck Sailing Yacht's Jenna Says Drama with Madison Felt 50 Times Worse Than What We See on TV

As the Below Deck Sailing Yacht reunion came to a close, Jenna delivered a tearful apology to Madison for her behavior this season. But, as Jenna mentioned during the reunion, this wasn't the first time she had shown remorse for how things went down with the second stew. "With Adam, when we left the season, and we were doing our road trip, I would constantly talk about this feeling like, 'Oh, I'm really frustrated that Madison still thinks I'm this a--hole, and it's really bothersome to me.' He's like, 'Well, maybe you should contact her.' And I was like, 'Yeah, I will,'" Jenna said. "So I sent her an apology, and it was like, again, nothing I ever did or said would just be resolved. [Madison] at first wrote, 'OK, yeah, there shouldn't be bad blood.' And then it was like, as soon as that happened, 'Well, why did you want to fire me? Why did this happen?' I could never just have a conversation with Madison. I tried, I really did." 

Madison said that she accepted Jenna's apology during the reunion and that she had moved on from their drama. The two even talked after the reunion, according to Jenna. "We had a phone call after the reunion, and she seemed to accept my apology, but now is still posting negative stuff about me on social media. She is liking the comments of trolls. She is reposting things that speak negatively about me," Jenna said. "I've never said anything about her on social media. She has done that from the start about me. So it's like, that's not a good person to me."

When asked if there was anything she could have done differently in order to have a smoother time working with Madison this season, Jenna said that she "would've suggested firing Madison." "She should've been let go," Jenna said.

Jenna added that Madison "equally" didn't like her this season and that they would both probably agree that they would never want to work with each other again. The chief stew also said she doesn't see them having much of a personal relationship in the future. "We go nowhere. I live my life, and she lives her life," Jenna shared. "Hopefully, she's happy. I wish nothing but happiness for anyone. I wouldn't have ill wishes for her. I hope that she does well in life, and that's all."
