Below Deck Med has had a revolving door of chief stews on the show since Season 5.
Captain Sandy Yawn fired long-time chief stew Hannah Ferrier halfway through the season for having Valium and a CBD pen.
Hannah had been a staple on the series since Below Deck Med launched
Since then, though, not one chief stew has returned for a second season.
However, that could change now that Captain Sandy’s friend and Hannah’s forever stew, Aesha Scott, has stepped into the chief stew role.
With Below Deck Med Season 9 kicking off this week, Captain Sandy revealed why she works so well with the Below Deck Down Under alum.
Has Below Deck Med’s Captain Sandy Yawn found her forever chief stew in Aesha Scott?
If Captain Sandy has her wish, then yes, Aesha will be the permanent chief stew on Below Deck Med.

Below Deck Med Season 9 kicked off last night, and fans already have much to say about it.
The premiere featured Captain Sandy Yawn back at the helm, with Aesha Scott taking on the chief stew role.
In true Below Deck Med fashion, the season already faced major problems, including a provision fiasco, a laundry disaster, and clashing crew members.
The episode ended with stew Ellie Dubaich waking chef Johnathan Shillingford for the second time to ask for help making late-night snacks for the guests.
Johnathan wasn’t happy, ending the premiere on a cliffhanger and giving viewers a lot to talk about.
Talk they have done, too, as X (formerly Twitter) has been buzzing since the Below Deck Med Season 9 kicked off.

Below Deck Down Under fan favorite Captain Jason Chambers has set the record straight on his pal Aesha Scott appearing on Below Deck Med.
Season 9 of Below Deck Med debuted last night with Aesha in the chief stew role and reuniting with her friend, Captain Sandy Yawn.
This week, Aesha has been on a whirlwind press tour promoting her latest reality TV stint.
During an interview with Decider, Aesha was asked if Captain Jason was jealous that she went to work with Captain Sandy again for another season.
Aesha joked that she was sure he was but then shared that she wasn’t the one to break the news to him. The Bravo personality revealed Captain Jason heard it through the rumor mill but was happy for her.
“He’s always very supportive,” Aesha shared with the outlet.
The comments section proved just how supportive Captain Jason is of Aesha.

Below Deck Season 11 wrapped up last week, and it’s time to move on to another show in the hit-yachting franchise.
There’s no question that Below Deck fans were expecting to see Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 5 hit Bravo airwaves this summer.
However, Bravo has switched things up, and instead, Below Deck Med Season 9 will play out.
It’s not want fans were hoping for, but there’s some good news regarding Season 9.
There has been a cast shake-up that includes the return of Aesha Scott.
Let’s look at how to watch Aesha returning to where her reality TV career began.

Below Deck Down Under star Aesha Scott returns to where it all began for Below Deck Med Season 9.
Aesha takes on the chief stew role, which belonged to her good friend Hannah Ferrier for years.
Season 4 of Below Deck Med introduced fans to Aesha kicking off her years-long friendship with the former chief stew.
When Hannah was fired during Below Deck Med Season 5, Aesha joined the crew after Bugsy Drake was promoted to Hannah’s role.
Throughout all the hoopla surrounding Hannah’s firing, one thing never changed: the friendship between Hannah and Aesha.
In fact, Hannah championed Aesha when she helped launch Below Deck Down Under alongside Captain Jason Chambers.

There is no Below Deck reunion special coming after this most recent season. This isn’t new, as the reality TV show has started to phase out the reunions lately. However, with the explosive finale from Season 11, it seems like a huge missed opportunity.
Here is a look at why Below Deck isn’t having a reunion after Season 11.

Did Below Deck Season 11 break the crew turnover record? That’s a question on some Below Deck fans’ minds, as only two episodes remain in the season.
As Monsters and Critics previously reported, Captain Kerry Titheradge talked about the high crew turnover, indicating the season might be record-breaking.
Chief stew Fraser Olender and bosun Ben Willoughby have also addressed the hot topic, alluding to familiar faces returning and several crew members going home.
However, as the final chapter begins, we can’t help but wonder about what all three Below Deck stars have said.
After all, only three people are left on Below Deck Season 11, and a familiar face has yet to join the St. David crew.

Sullivan was all smiles in the first couple of pictures, as Kate held a flower up for him to smell.

Will there be a Below Deck Season 11 reunion? That’s a question Below Deck fans are asking as the season barrels toward the end.
Below Deck reunions used to be a given, even if done via Zoom due to the yachties schedule.
However, that has not been the case in the past year, with only Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 4 having a reunion in 2023.
The lack of reunions has left Below Deck fans unhappy, as many things are left unresolved after the season ends.
There are less than a handful of episodes left in Season 11 of Below Deck.
So, should fans expect a Season 11 reunion show? Let’s take a look at what we know.

The Argentinian-American self-described daddy’s girl, perhaps somewhat naively, didn’t think the show’s production would break the fourth wall in the scenes they chose to include on the show. Barbie is shocked dad conversations ended up getting aired by Bravo.

Og Below Deck Crew members Captain Lee and bosun/first officer Eddie Lucas have appeared together on the show over several seasons. Fans have been wondering where Eddie went after he left the show at the end of Season 9.
Fans went to Twitter on April 5th to pose the question as to what Eddie Lucas is up to. One fan even directed their question at Captain Lee. The fan says “Hey captain is Eddie ok? I know he does tug boats I’m sure everything is shut down.” Captain Lee stated that “Eddie is well and doing fine.

Below Deck Med alum Hannah Ferrier has spilled some tea about her friendship with Below Deck’s Captain Lee Rosbach.
It turns out that during the height of Hannah’s feud with Captain Sandy Yawn on Below Deck Med, she sought some advice from the stud of the sea.
Hannah and Captain Sandy had a turbulent relationship, to say the least, during the almost four seasons they worked together on the hit-yachting show.
Things came to a head when Malia White turned Hannah in for having Valium and a CBD pen during Season 5, and Captain Sandy fired the chief stew.
Although that happened nearly five years ago, Hannah still gets asked about her time on Below Deck Med and her feud with the captain.
This week, she revealed one way she got through the drama with Captain Sandy and teased what would bring her back to the franchise.

Captain Sandy stopped by Watch What Happens Live last night to talk all things Below Deck Med with Tumi Mhlongo.
In true Andy Cohen fashion, he didn’t hold back from getting the captain to dish some dirt on her current and former co-workers.
Two people who have caused problems for Captain Sandy over the years are Hannah and Kyle.
While Captain Sandy fired Hannah during Season 5, she gave pot stirrer Kyle a second chance during Season 8. Something Below Deck Med fans disagreed with after his pot-stirring ways caused so many problems between Natalya Scudder and Tumi.

Captain Lee Rosbach has his Cheerios on Below Deck, but Captain Sandy Yawn has her own breakfast “must have” on Below Deck Mediterranean.
Below Deck Med Season 8 temporary chief stew Natalya Scudder, who worked for Yawn last season as a second stew, said the one thing the captain demands is freshly squeezed orange juice.
“As long as Captain Sandy has fresh orange juice in the morning she’s quite happy,” Scudder told Showbiz Cheat Sheet. “Every single morning it’s fresh orange juice. If it’s not in the bridge before she wakes up, she’s not happy.”
Can the stews ‘cheat’ with Captain Sandy Yawn’s juice?
Yawn will know if the juice isn’t freshly squeezed. “She’ll notice if it isn’t fresh. So the grapefruit juice and then the orange juice have to be fresh every single morning and then so does a green juice and like two smoothies,...

Of all the captains in the Below Deck franchise, Captain Sandy Yawn tends to insert herself into the crew's workflow and interpersonal drama the most. Throughout her Below Deck Mediterranean tenure, she's micromanaged the interior, demanding intricate tablescapes and setting unrealistic service expectations; exacerbated conflicts by playing favorites with members of the deck team, particularly Malia White; and fired crew members for ridiculous reasons, like longtime chief steward Hannah Ferrier, who got the boot for having unregistered (but prescribed) Valium on board, and Season 5's beloved chef Kiko Lorran, who struggled to stay organized in the galley. Time and time again, Sandy used her decades of experience in the industry as justification for undermining her crew, lording the threat of "maritime law" and "liabilities to the vessel" over the heads of twentysomethings who just want to make good tip money and get drunk on nights out.

Below Deck Down Under viewers were likely surprised when second officer João Franco from Below Deck Mediterranean joined the cast. But he’s not the first crew member to jump series and cast crossovers seem to be happening more and more within the franchise.
So which crew members started in one Below Deck series and jumped ship to another?
‘Below Deck’ crew member crossovers who launched a new series
The original Below Deck series was such a success that production company 51 Minds launched Below Deck Mediterranean. But rather than kick it off with an entirely new cast, they included original chef Ben Robinson to set sail alongside new chief stew Hannah Ferrier and Captain Mark Howard.
Robinson appeared on Below Deck Med once more as the relief chef on season 4. Chef Adam Glick took over on Below Deck Med for seasons 2 and 3. He then became the crossover cast member to launch Below Deck Sailing Yacht.

Below Deck Down Under second officer João Franco has an alter ego, Jezabob, and Jezabob can cause chaos. During his first Below Deck appearance, Franco would get drunk and make extremely spicy comments to the crew.
He alienated some of the crew members, especially chief stew Hannah Ferrier and Jezabob mainly emerged during drunken nights with the crew. When he returned as bosun in Below Deck Mediterranean Season 4, he muted Jezabob but still managed to offend some crew members, especially Aesha Scott. She blocked him on social media after he said her outfit resembled something a prostitute would wear.
Franco is back on Below Deck Down Under as the second officer and claimed that Jezabob won’t return. But how bad was he and what steps did he take to kick his alter ego to the curb?

Below Deck Down Under bosun João Franco may be new to the series, but not the franchise. Franco made his first appearance on Below Deck Mediterranean Season 3 as a deckhand. He returned for Below Deck Med Season 4 as bosun and has been working on racking up certifications while off the show.
Franco has been a controversial figure on Below Deck. He majorly clashed with chief stew Hannah Ferrier and bosun Conrad Empson during his first season of the series. Franco also dated one stew while flirting with another stew and got extremely messy when he would get drunk.
And while Below Deck Med Season 3 was tough and he received backlash, he returned for Below Deck Med Season 4 as bosun and as a redemption season. He patched up any conflicts he had with Ferrier and curbed his drinking. And while he definitely bickered less with the crew, he still ended up making waves.

New Below Deck Down Under bosun João Franco got a less than thrilling welcome from chief stew Aesha Scott because they majorly clashed the last time they worked together.
Franco will replace fired bosun Luke Jones and while he and Scott don’t totally hate each other, she blocked him on social media after they worked together on Below Deck Mediterranean Season 4, especially after Franco referred to Scott as looking like a “Russian prostitute” during the season.
Aesha Scott said João Franco used to flirt with her ‘all the time’
Scott wanted to confront Franco at the Below Deck Med Season 4 reunion, but they didn’t film a reunion that season. At one point Franco made a derogatory comment about Scott’s outfit when the crew was out on the town.

Below Deck Down Under chief stew Aesha Scott really is going to be a “tougher b****” on season 2. As chief stew, Scott said she was more assertive and learned to be proactive when it came to crew issues – something she regrets not doing more of last season.
Last season Scott felt the need to prove herself to Captain Jason Chambers. So she tried to resolve issues with chef Ryan McKeown and stew Magda Ziomek on her own. From that experience, Scott realized that she should have brought problems to Chambers’ attention earlier so they could have been resolved faster.

Too much? Were Lala Kent and James Kennedy’s reactions on the Vanderpump Rules Season 10 reunion too over the top?
The entire Vanderpump Rules cast was furious with Tom Sandoval at the reunion as they hashed out how he cheated on longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix with mutual friend Raquel Leviss. And while Madix was justifiably angry, Kennedy and Kent seemed to be just as outraged to the point where podcast host Hannah Ferrier and influencer Amir Yass wondered if they were just trying to cash in on making “memeable” moments.

Below Deck Mediterranean almost took a very different turn if chief stew Hannah Ferrier followed up on her attempt to quit the show during season 2. Ferrier, who was fired midway through Below Deck Med Season 5 recently said she was so exasperated during season 2 that she packed her bags and was ready to leave the boat.
The reasons were likely due to conflict with crew members like Christine “Bugsy” Drake and deckhand Bobby Giancola.
But she revealed there was an instance where she quit after a guest picked her up by her throat prior to being on Below Deck Med.

Hannah Ferrier from Below Deck Mediterranean learned the hard way to always do her homework before appearing on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. Ferrier was a Wwhl guest during her final season of Below Deck Med and realized she hadn’t watched the episode they were about to discuss.
She was six months pregnant and Wwhl filmed virtually. But Ferrier said the fact she appeared on camera completely in the dark had to be one of her most cringeworthy moments.

Ferrier’s final season, Below Deck Med Season 5 aired during the pandemic. And while Wwhl still aired, the late-night talk show was filmed 100% virtually. But it was still broadcast on the national Bravo platform.

Quite a few Below Deck yachties are hanging up their epaulets for marriage and babies. The latest marriage proposal came from Chef Ben Robinson from Below Deck and Below Deck Mediterranean.
Robinson revealed on Instagram that he proposed to girlfriend Kiara Cabral – and of course, she said yes. The couple have been dating for four years and Robinson popped the question on – of course – a boat.
But Robinson isn’t the only yachtie making big life changes in May 2023. The day before Robinson announced his engagement, Below Deck Med stew June Foster shared that she too was engaged. Also, former Below Deck chief stew Kate Chastain made big baby news when she announced that her son Sullivan Cay was born.

From Below Deck Mediterranean Season 1, chief stew Hannah Ferrier had that certain je ne sais quoi that made for compelling television.
Ferrier recently reflected on why viewers couldn’t get enough of her and it all came down to her feeling “uncomfortable” on the show. In the past, she’s talked about having anxiety while filming. And recently discussed how being around so many people on camera at once was simply awkward.

Ferrier addressed a fan’s question about how she dealt with working with a large camera crew and guests on the show. “So I think in some ways that was why I was so good on the show is because I was probably so uncomfortable a lot of the time,” Ferrier said on her Dear Reality, You’re Effed podcast.

Hannah Ferrier from Below Deck Mediterranean thinks that Kate Chastain from Below Deck is a better chief stew.
Both Below Deck chief stews are icons in their own right. But Ferrier recently responded to a fan question wondering who she thought would “win a battle of the chief stews.” Not only did Ferrier think Chastain was a better chief stew, but she also sent Chastain “massive congratulations” on her new baby.

Below Deck Mediterranean stew Kasey Cohen had some genuine moments with (then) deckhand João Franco that never aired on season 3.
Franco earned a bad reputation on his first season of Below Deck Med. He had a huge conflict with chief stew Hannah Ferrier and flirted with Cohen while also trying to date second stew, Brooke Laughton. Cohen agreed that what was shown of Franco did portray him as a villain. But there was plenty of footage showing Franco’s softer, kinder side that never made the show.

Stew June Foster went viral on Below Deck Mediterranean Season 4 when chief stew Hannah Ferrier continuously called “June, June, Hannah” on the radio. In fact, to this day, she still has strangers relay the line to her, which makes her laugh.
But she wasn’t laughing after her departure from the show. Foster was hired when stew Anastasia Surmava took over as chef when the original chef was fired. Surmava’s time as the chef was short-lived and the stress caused her to return back to being a stew. Foster was let go and she seemed rattled and pretty upset at the time.
Foster recently told Showbiz Cheat Sheet that she privately struggled off the show due to backlash and online bullying.

Former Below Deck Mediterranean stew Kasey Cohen and girlfriend Liron Revivo opened up about their love story and how they are making a huge splash in the modeling world.
Cohen, who was a third stew on Below Deck Med Season 3, told Showbiz Cheat Sheet she’s happier than she’s ever been with Revivo by her side. The couple said it was love at first sight and shared how they balance their strong relationship with both being busy models.

We were just kind of scrolling on the app, seeing what was out there. And then when we matched, I was dumbfounded. I thought I had gotten catfished.

Despite his charming nature, chef Ben Robinson from Below Deck has popped off at a stew or two in the galley. He recently discussed how many great chefs can be an “a**hole” in the kitchen when it comes to their food.
Robinson also told Showbiz Cheat Sheet that being a little grumpy in the kitchen is the norm for most good chefs. “I think every serious or good chef does have that moment because the food can’t be compromised,” he said.
“And if we see it being compromised by the staff or whatever, then that’s a problem,” he said. “Food is all about timing and if it’s not going out, it’s getting cold or it’s getting soggy, or whatever it is. [So] I do think good chefs should throw their toys occasionally. I think if you’re a pushover as a chef, then your food is going to be compromised.

[So] I do think good chefs should throw their toys occasionally. I think if you’re a pushover as a chef, then your food is going to be compromised.

Below Deck Season 10 yachties set a tip record when they earned a total of $222,300 for the season, approximately $17,000 per crew member.
Not bad for six weeks of work. Captain Lee Rosbach was even pretty impressed. “Well done, guys,” he said during the season finale. “Just a really, really cohesive unit. It meant the world to me. It makes my life a whole lot easier. And when I’m happy, everybody’s happy, right?”
“So let’s get down to some money,” he added. “This is the most money collectively as a group I’ve ever seen. You guys split up $222,300… $17,000 per person. Damn near a quarter of a million dollars.”
Below Deck Season 10 set the record for the most tip money ever on Below Deck. But Below Deck Mediterranean Season 7 wasn’t far behind, which certainly raises the bar for future seasons. So which seasons saw some of the highest tip totals?...

Below Deck, shows what it’s like to be a super yacht crew member during the busy charter season. The crew members, known as “yachties,” put in long hours at work and late nights on the boat’s party deck. This results in many love triangles, family feuds, and general mayhem.
The show’s 2013 debut on Bravo piqued audiences’ interest in maritime drama, and they have eagerly awaited new episodes ever since. When Captain Sandy Yawn sacked fan favorite Hannah Ferrier in season 5 of Below Deck Mediterranean, the program made waves as the first spinoff of the popular Bravo show.
After that, Bravo announced it would air two spinoffs of the popular reality program Below Deck. Below Deck Down Under and Below Deck Adventure are the newest additions to the series.

Known for his one-liners, Captain Lee Rosbach from Below Deck referred to Tom Sandoval as a “poor man’s Johnny Depp” amid the Vanderpump Rules scandal.
Also coined as “Scandoval,” the Vanderpump Rules affair between Sandoval and Raquel Leviss rocked the Bravo world, prompting Bravolebs from other shows, like Below Deck, to comment. The reason why the affair was so shocking is that Sandoval was in a decade-long relationship with Ariana Madix – who has been a longtime friend and supporter of Leviss.
This isn’t the first time Rosbach dipped his toe into the Vanderpump Rules drama. Rosbach and Jax Taylor once had their own social media feud.

Vanderpump Rules friend Kristina Kelly may not have known that Raquel Leviss and Tom Sandoval were having an affair, but clearly, her radar was up.
During the latest episode, Kelly expressed suspicion of Leviss when Katie Maloney blamed Scheana Shay for putting the idea in Leviss’s mind that she should pursue Tom Schwartz. Schwartz and Maloney were newly divorced and they made a deal to not hook up with anyone in their friend group.
So when Shay suggested to Leviss that she make out with Schwartz, Maloney was furious, despite the fact she drunkenly told Shay she’d be fine if Leviss and Schwartz hooked up.

Kelly, who has been on Vanderpump Rules in the past, believes that the anger being directed toward Shay is a bit misguided. And that Leviss knows exactly what she is doing.

As far as Ariana Madix was concerned, she and Tom Sandoval from Vanderpump Rules were in a monogamous relationship that was not open. The Vanderpump Rules Season 10 trailer teased that the now-former couple was in an open relationship – something Madix said was untrue on Twitter. And in a 2020 interview, Madix, who is also bisexual, emphasized that being bisexual does not translate to a polyamorous relationship.
Madix and Sandoval recently broke up when she learned he was having a several-month-long affair with Raquel Leviss. Some fans cited that the couple was in an open relationship – something she pushed back against for years after sharing that she was bisexual.
Why did Ariana Madix share that she was bisexual on ‘Vanderpump Rules’?

Former Below Deck Mediterranean chief stew Hannah Ferrier says that while there is plenty of drama on Below Deck, the Vanderpump Rules cheating scandal brings reality TV to an entirely different level.
Ferrier, who experienced her own drama during her final season of Below Deck Med said filming a reality show focused on the workplace stings far less than a show that follows personal relationships.
News recently broke that Tom Sandoval from Vanderpump Rules cheated on long-term girlfriend Ariana Madix with Raquel Leviss, who was in their friend group.
In fact, when James Kennedy proposed to Leviss a few years ago, Sandoval helped to bankroll the expensive proposal. Leviss and Kennedy broke up during last year’s Vanderpump Rules reunion and her storyline this season was that she hoped to hook up with newly divorced Tom Schwartz.
Thanks to the cheating scandal, filming was extended for Vanderpump Rules Season 10 to capture the latest development.

Below Deck cast members receive some pretty wild direct messages on social media, but Mzi “Zee” Dempers from Below Deck Mediterranean revealed a recent Dm from a fan who requested a threesome with his girlfriend.
Dempers, who usually maintains a low profile, said he’s not the only Below Deck Med cast member to hear from this particular fan. And that chef Dave White from season 7 also got the same request.
‘Below Deck Med’ crew got the same salacious DMs
Dempers said there is a “dude” who has propositioned both him and White. “He sends videos having sex with his girlfriend asking me to come and join [them],” Dempers revealed on the Total Ship Show podcast.

Host Malia White clarified that the fan asked for a threesome. Co-host Katie Flood recalled that the same fan messaged White when he was in Miami.

Time hasn’t healed the rift between Jill Zarin and Dorinda Medley from The Real Housewives of New York City. The Rhony stars returned for season 2 of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip and the reunion season fostered bad blood between the former friends.
Medley shamed Zarin on Rhugt when Zarin asked if she could be part of Eva Marcille’s radio broadcast. When Zarin became teary, Medley admonished her and called Zarin “weak.” They eventually tried to put the moment in the past, but clearly, it isn’t.

Medley and Zarin lashed out at one another as the season aired. Zarin said, months later she and Medley are still not in a good place. Zarin appeared on the Dear Reality, You’re Effed podcast, and host Hannah Ferrier asked where she and Medley stood today. “Not good,” Zarin said.

Fraser Olender pushed back as being pegged as frazzled on the latest Below Deck, tweeting that his department did well despite the criticism.
During the preference sheet meeting, Captain Sandy Yawn praised chef Rachel Hargrove and bosun Ross McHarg for the progress they made. She then turned to Olender and told him to turn his team around. He was livid even though he calmly swallowed the remark.
Fraser said his ‘Below Deck’ team was ‘gold’
But on Twitter, he disputed that his team was a mess. “Not really sure of this week’s edit to be very honest… We felt great, no stress, no one frazzled, everything under control, all smiles – aside from the bad energy from chef and Cap, we were gold!” he tweeted.

Has the queen of the sea passed the Below Deck chief stew torch to Fraser Olender? After two chief stews on the show since her departure, former Below Deck chief stew Kate Chastain, who currently stars in Peaock‘s The Traitors, says Olender has what it takes to rock the role.
Chastain recently weighed in on Olender’s Below Deck job performance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. “I think he’s doing fantastic,” Chastain said about Olender. “The only thing is he’s trying to be their friend a little too much. But I think he’s quickly learning that’s not the best approach.”

During Season 5 of the show, Captain Sandy Yawn fired Hannah with a little help from Malia White. Hannah getting the axe earned a slew of backlash for Malia, Captain Sandy and the show.

Katie Flood did a good job in Season 6 but didn’t return for the current season, with Natasha taking on the role.

Below Deck Mediterranean alum Jessica More shared a bikini throwback as she reflected on finding out she was going to be a mother for the first time.
Jessica made quite the impression on Below Deck Med Season 5 thanks to her boatmance with Robert Westergaard.
Like all Below Deck romances, their relationship didn’t last once the cameras stopped rolling.
These days, Jessica has traded in reality television and yachting for a more positive, peaceful lifestyle.
That’s more important than ever to Jessica, who shocked fans in July with not only her pregnancy news but that she was already in her third trimester.
As Jessica prepares for the next chapter in her life, she’s taking time to look back on the moment that changes her life forever.

On or off Below Deck Mediterranean, Hannah Ferrier al-waves speaks her mind. So, while the chief stew may no longer star on the Bravo series after being unceremoniously fired by Captain Sandy Yawn during season five, Hannah couldn't help but weigh in on the show's current season. "It's really hard because obviously they've changed the chief stew every season since I left," Hannah told Showbiz Cheat Sheet Sept. 11."And I feel like it's such an important role on Below Deck to fill. Because you want somebody who is good at their job, but then at the end of the day, we kind of go like, 'Oh it's yachting.' It's still a reality show. So you want someone who's...

Below Deck Mediterranean beauty Katie Flood naps topless in Monaco as she takes a short break from yachting.
Katie was a one and done with Below Deck Med after filling Hannah Ferrier’s shoes as chief stew on Season 6 of the hit show.
The brunette beauty did well in the role, bonding with all the crew except for Lexi Wilson. Katie grew especially close to Malia White and Courtney Veale.
After Season 6 wrapped, Katie took short hiatus from yachting to focus on her mental health and living a more Zen life.
These days she’s back in yachting and working with her good pal Malia. They had some recent downtime from their current yacht, which Malia used to enjoy Italy with her boyfriend, Jake Baker.
Now Katie has teased what she did with her time, including heating up social media with a gorgeous look.
