Katie Flood Teases A Boatmance This Season On Below Deck Mediterranean

Katie Flood Below Deck Mediterranean

Anyone watching the new season of Below Deck Mediterranean knows that a boat romance is on the horizon.  Take that from experience watching the Below Deck franchise, and the powers of hiring a certain mix of attractive people and its inevitable that crew members will be hooking up.  It’s just a matter of who, when, and whether it will be a hookup or something more.

Boat romances are just messy, season after season.  Gary King and Sydney Zaruba didn’t wait past the first episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2.  This rather unfortunate decision prevented Gary from getting the girl he really wanted in the end.  Of course, Alli Dore moved on to greener pastures and is happily awaiting the birth of her first child with boyfriend.  Jessica More and Robert Westergaard got in over their heads with emotions, but there was nothing to keep them together in the end.  Even after a dream vacation in Bali together.  Former chief stew Hannah Ferrier and Bosun Conrad Empson bonded over cigarettes and a mutual distaste for Captain Sandy Yawn before things went sour over an argument about fifty euros.  This small sample of broken hearts is, of course, one reason we keep watching.

Below Deck Mediterranean Stew Bugsy Drake Gives Update On Alex Radcliffe And What Their Relationship Is Like Today

Below Deck Mediterranean Alex Radcliffe Bugsy Drake

Last season on Below Deck Mediterranean, viewers were inundated with dysfunctional boat romances.  Bosun Malia White had to placate her then boyfriend Tom Checketts whenever things didn’t work out in the galley.  Their relationship dynamic was all about Malia managing his ego and poor problem solving abilities.  Then there was Jessica More and Robert Westergaard.  They met on board and were an item for a hot minute before arguments and jealousy took hold.

But there was one coupling that fans were rooting for.  It never really took off during the season, but watching deck hand Alex Radcliffe trying to woo Bugsy Drake was endearing to say the least.  He adored her, but ultimately got friend-zoned.  They are still friends and communicate often on social media, which raised hopes that some feelings could be rekindled.  So now that Bugsy is promoting her new book, The Art of Tablescaping: Deck Out Your Table with the Queen of Theme, she also offered an update on where she and Alex stand currently.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht Alums Paget Berry And Ciara Duggan Split

Paget Berry Ciara Duggan Below Deck Sailing Yacht

Paget Berry and Ciara Duggan presented Below Deck fans to a new concept, that of long term relationship in the boating/yachting industry.  They were introduced to us as bosun and first mate in the premier season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht.  Their four year romance seemed to be an exception rather than the rule in an industry of seasonal boatmances.

Not that their love was without hiccups along the way.  Paget was consistently flirting with costar Georgia Grobler, and by the end of the season she was professing deep feelings towards him.  There was no physical indiscretion, and at the time filming wrapped, Paget and Ciara seemed unshaken by the incident.  They bought a home in France, and moved in together as of October 2020.  There was an engagement. So what really happened?

Below Deck Alum Kelley Johnson Names His Crew Dream Team

Below Deck recap

Some Below Deck crews are better than others. This season is a perfect example of that. Captain Lee Rosbach is coming through, as usual. And Eddie Lucas‘ comeback season is going well. Other than that, it’s hard to root for most of the Season 8 cast members. Then again, it’s tough to get to know so many new cast members every season, or at least it is for me. It would be a much better show if we actually knew all of the cast members on the season, so we could jump right into watching some drama.

Well, Below Deck alum Kelley Johnson just put together his dream crew. It’s all hypothetical, of course, but it would make for an interesting season if this group actually did come together. Interestingly enough, he didn’t include his sister/fellow Below Deck alum Amy Johnson in his list.

Below Deck Mediterranean Alum Hannah Ferrier Is Engaged To Josh Roberts

Below Deck Mediterranean Star Hannah Ferrier

It was clear to Below Deck Mediterranean viewers that it was time for Hannah Ferrier to move on.  She was chief stew since the series premiered, but seemed less and less enamored with her job.  Hannah often butted heads with her superior Captain Sandy Yawn, who described her as, “checked-out.”  Hannah was asked to leave the boat when valium was discovered in her possession.

Bugsy Drake took over like a breath of fresh air, and Hannah went home.  It could have been a low point for Hannah, but she seemed ready for life back on land.  Since filming for the show, Hannah hit many life milestones.  She and boyfriend Josh welcomed daughter Ava, their first child together, in October.  Hannah also celebrated her birthday on Sunday with her family, and got a very special surprise this year.

Below Deck Mediterranean Reunion Part 2 Recap: It’s All Maritime Law To Me

Below Deck Mediterranean Reunion Hannah Ferrier Malia White

Anyone need a Valium? Truly, I don’t know how you could’ve gotten through Part 2 of the Below Deck Mediterranean reunion without anxiety. Or at the very least a substantial headache. Because as much as Hannah Ferrier‘s firing (rightfully) angered fans, I never want to hear the words “maritime law” again. Except, sorry, you’ll probably be forced to hear them a whole bunch in this last and final recap of the season.

The first half of Part 2 of the reunion all revolves around the drama between Hannah and Captain Sandy Yawn. Was Hannah’s vape pen for CBD or THC? The chief stew claims it was CBD for anxiety; the manufacturer claims it matches their THC pen. Ok, that doesn’t stop Hannah from insisting you can put whatever oil you want in the pen, and doubling down that it was CBD. Jessica More jumps in to add that she also had a CBD pen on board, which promptly sets Sandy off. But what’s the captain going to do? Fire her? And really, does anyone even care anymore at this point?

Below Deck Mediterranean Reunion Part 1 Recap: The Ballad of Hannah And Captain Sandy

Below Deck Mediterranean Reunion

Raise the anchor because it’s reunion time, yachties! The entire Below Deck Mediterranean crew is back and dressed in their best whites to hash out a season’s worth of drama on the high seas. Well, most of them, anyway. And just like most Bravo reunions these days, this year’s proceedings will be entirely virtual. Though this time around, the decision is just as likely to be about logistics, what with the entire cast spread out around the world.

Captain Sandy Yawn seems to be only one landlocked, stuck at her apartment in Colorado with the protective foam corners still stuck on the frame of the artwork behind her head. Meanwhile, Hannah Ferrier is eight months pregnant in Australia, where she filmed the reunion at four a.m. The rest of the crew is scattered everywhere from London (Malia White) and Long Island (Alex Radcliffe, who’s blessedly shirtless in the opening montage) to the islands of the Bahamas (Bugsy Drake) and Martinique (Kiko Lorran). Meanwhile Rob Westergaard and Jessica More are both in Florida, but definitely not together.
