Summer is heating up just in time for the June 2 premiere of Below Deck Season 12. Is it just a coincidence that one of our favorite chief stews, Fraser Olender, is returning just as Pride Month begins?
This season, Fraser’s going all out. Though he’s always bitingly funny, the pre-season rumors promise we’ll see the chief stew hook up with a charter guest while on charter!
“Life is too short!” Fraser told Pride. “What’s the point in doing your job if you cannot have fun along the way? Yes, we get a bit saucy. I feel like everyone shares a piece of everyone’s pie, but sharing is caring! There’s lots of kissing going on. I don’t regret any of it.”
Fraser Olender has “no regrets” after Season 12
With gay adult entertainers coming onto the yacht, Fraser gets caught up in the celebration. Could one of these performers be his rumored crush?
“I was excited to meet them all, but I grew very fondly of Cade Maddox,” Fraser said. “We got along really well! He was a massive flirt, and that’s always nice to have on a charter. I do sometimes have a soft spot for my guests, but I didn’t cross any boundaries this year. I just applaud them, and I love them!”
Furthermore, Season 12 sexy time won’t be limited to the guests, Viewers will also see the crew being more “hands-on” with each other than ever before.
“The fact that our crew this year is so LGBTQ+ friendly and it’s watched by so many people, I think, is going to be fantastic,” Fraser continued. “Sure, there’s going to be people that come for us, but we’ve got to fight the good fight, and we always will.”
As he’s recently single himself, Fraser saw no reason not to put himself out there, since he’s looking for the right partner. You never know where you’ll meet your significant other. A high percentage of singles meet their partner at work (I did). And you never know when you’ll meet Mr. Right.
“I need someone who’s nothing like me!” Fraser shared. “I just really love authenticity, and I find it really refreshing when I meet a normal guy with good values. I’m ready for love! I feel like I really am. I think this is my summer of love!”
Below Deck Season 12 premieres June 2 at 8/7c on Bravo. The show airs on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
