As chef Ben Robinson returns to Below Deck Down Under Season 4, he’s bringing a little extra personal baggage. In a sneak peek of the Season 4 premiere, Ben shares details about his broken engagement with ex-fiancé Kiara Cabral.
Ben has been enjoying his freedom at his successful catering company, though his “personal life has not been quite as successful.” A return to the BDDU galley may be just what the doctor ordered.
“This might come as a shock to everyone, but I am actually single,” he admits in a confessional interview. “Fairly recently, I broke up with my fiancée — having spent $50,000 on a wedding I didn’t attend.”
Chef Ben Robinson returns to Bravo in Below Deck Down Under Season 4
In September 2024, Ben told Bravo’s Daily Dish, “It’s odd when your future’s been solidified, for it all to vanish into thin air. [But] yachting was a big part of my formative life. It’s actually nice to come back to it.”
Meanwhile, as the rest of the Katina crew arrives, Chief Stew Daisy Kelliher is giving her new team a tour of the boat. After she introduces her new stews Jenna Woudberg and Joe Caron to the chef and Bosun João Franco, Ben tells João, “Calm down mate.”
After assuring the bosun that he’s “just kidding,” Ben goes on. “They do say that to get over someone, you gotta find someone else,” he laughs. “I think Katina can be my new girl.”
Ben’s better off having a relationship with the boat, since rumor has it, there was tension between him and Daisy. In another sneak peek released in early January, Daisy called the chef “a hothead in the galley.”
Below Deck Down Under Season 4 premieres February 2 at 8/7c on Bravo. It streams on Peacock the following day.
