Erica Rose on Below Deck Sailing Yacht: Who is the returning charter guest?

Erica Rose returns for her second stint as a charter guest on Below Deck Sailing Yacht.

On Season 2 of the sailing show, Erica, her mom Cindy, and a group of friends boarded Parsifal III. They were a very high-maintenance group.

Chief stew Daisy Kelliher and first-officer Gary King had the best reaction to learning Erica was back for Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 3. This time around, Erica and Cindy are joined by their husbands and a new crop of friends.

Gary and Daisy clearly haven’t forgotten Erica and her voice, but for those who have, here’s a little refresher on the returning charter guest.

Who is Below Deck Sailing Yacht charter guest Erica Rose?

Erica was no stranger to reality television before she debuted on Below Deck Sailing Yacht. The Bachelor fans will remember her from Season 9 featuring Prince Lorenzo Borghese. She went on to appear on Bachelor Pad Season 2 and 3.

Other reality TV shows Erica appeared on include VH1’s You’re Cut Off! And Bravo’s Married to Medicine Houston. Erica appeared on the latter with her mother, Cindy.

After her stints on reality television, Erica enrolled at the University of Houston Law Center to become a lawyer. Erica obtained her master’s degree in Entertainment Law from Southwestern Law School.

The blonde lawyer currently owns Rose Sanders Law Firm, where she works with her husband, Charles.

When did Erica and Charles get married?

Before meeting her husband Charles Sanders, Erica was engaged to another lawyer, Galen Gentry. Their whirlwind romance produced their daughter, Holland Rose Madelaine Gentry. Galen and Erica called off their engagement shortly after Holland was born in 2016.

A few months later, Erica reconnected with Charles, whom she had known since high school. The happy couple reconnected via his cousin and Bumble, according to Distractify.

Charles proposed to Erica in the fall of 2017. They were married a couple of months later. Erica and Charles welcomed their daughter, Aspen Rose Sanders, in 2018.

Erica Rose returns to Below Deck Sailing Yacht for Season 3. The blonde beauty has been promoting her stint on the hit Bravo show.

Whether fans like her or hate her, one thing is for sure. There’s never a dull moment when Erica and her friends are around.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht airs Mondays at 8/7c on Bravo.

Money can’t buy class. Her husband eats like a cow and is a complete ass. She isn’t any better.

Hahaha I just watched these two complete embarrassments on that show. Her and her husband are two of the most classless, disgusting pigs I’ve ever seen on there.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2 Cast: Where Are They Now?

Here's what happened to Daisy, Colin, Captain Glenn and the rest of the Parsifal crew.

Considering the series filmed in August 2020, viewers are curious about the whereabouts of our Sailing Yacht favorites...and, more importantly, how the cast and crew managed to film for several weeks amid lockdown. As it turns out, the location of this season was chosen intentionally. At that time, Croatia remained one of few countries in the EU to accept American tourists. In a Reddit AMA , a producer for the show also explained that maintaining safety protocols (which likely included regular Covid testing) was key in filming this season.

Here's what happened to your favorite crew members from Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2:

Colin Macrae

Colin Macrae might serve as the Chief Engineer aboard the Parsifal III, however, when it comes to the inner workings of his relationship, things aren’t as black and white. Despite gushing over his relationship with Martina Alvarez last summer, Macrae revealed that he and Martina have officially parted ways. “Unfortunately my relationship with Martina came to an end a couple of months ago,” Colin captioned his most recent YouTube video . Although his romance is no more, Colin remains optimistic for what’s to come as he embarks on a “fresh start” in none other than Panama. Colin has also continued his efforts in creating content online documenting his many adventures in Linton Bay, Panama , where he’s resided over the course of the last few months.

Glenn Shephard

Captain Glenn Shephard is back and better than ever! The sailboat captain may only have 2 seasons of Below Deck under his belt, but his 20 years of experience certainly make him a notable addition to the Bravo family. Since his summer in Croatia last year, Gl enn has since moved to Spain , which Shephard has deemed his new “happy place.” While becoming a Bravo-lebrity can go to one’s head, Glenn has remained modest when it comes to his newfound fame. The star now offers Zoom sessions with fans of the show, where he dishes on behind-the-scenes details all while sipping cocktails on the Spanish coast.

First Officer Gary King walked away from his very first season on Below Deck Sailing Yacht feeling nothing but grateful. “Reminiscing about the last 6 weeks that have just flown by. I learned lessons that I’ll carry for life,” Gary wrote on Instagram . While fans have been rooting for him and fellow stewardess, Alli Dore to set sails on a possible romance, it appears as King has been flying solo since the series ended. After traveling about to a number of stunning locations, including Mallorca, Spain, Gary returned home to South Africa just in time for Christmas. The Bravo star has since remained in his home country, occupying himself with a series of visits to the golf range and a new passion for landscape photography and cooking.

Natasha De Bourg

The Michelin-star chef has been tuning in this season from her home in the Bahamas, and, well, she hasn't taken to it favorably. The star has posted a series of pics on her Instagram detailing her frustrations with herself on the show, claiming that she is “human and humans are imperfect.” Luckily for Natasha, her friendship with both Dani and Alli has blossomed immensely since wrapping up, and the two have been a huge support for Natasha as she cruises through these waves of criticism.

Daisy Kelliher

Being the Chief Stewardess on any yacht is no easy feat, and Daisy Kelliher is certainly feeling the burn. Following her time at sea in Croatia, Daisy, unfortunately, broke her wrist and found herself back home with mom and dad in Ireland . During lockdown, Daisy accepted a job in Antigua two months later, however, due to the current situation, her efforts at finding adventure fell flat. “I had completely lost myself,” Daisy captioned her photo on Instagram , revealing she began pushing friends away and entered a dark space. Luckily for the Below Deck star, she feels like herself again and is set to start a new job. During a live chat, Daisy revealed to co-star, Sydney Zaruba that she is most likely headed back to Europe, although she’s left much of what she’ll be doing a mystery.

Dani Soares

Dani Soares soared to being a fan favorite this current season and we don’t see that changing anytime soon. Soares, who reigns all the way from Brazil, has gone on to make quite a name for herself since her summer in Croatia. The star currently resides in Sydney, Australia where she is expecting her very first child. Dani revealed the news on social media back in April, however, both her due date and daddy status remain unknown. Although fans have inquired who the father is, Soares made it clear that it isn’t “anybody’s business.” As she embarks on her journey towards motherhood, Dani is currently working as a beauty therapist in the land down under all while taking in her recent rise to fame.

Alli Dore is the third stewardess to join the hit Bravo series, and boy are we glad she did. After wrapping up her summer in Croatia, Alli returned home to Australia, where she was born and raised. Her love for boating didn’t stop when the summer did, as she went on to spend her time in the Whitsundays Islands. As for Alli’s personal life, the star made an appearance on the Unpopular podcast where she revealed that she is pansexual. [I am] “attracted to people’s aura,” she revealed. Alli has gone on to start her very own IGTV series called Pita Party , which she stars in alongside Sailing Yacht co-stars, Daisy and Dani.

Sydney Zaruba

Sydney Zaruba found herself in quite the love triangle last summer in Croatia, but today, she is all about keeping her inner circle small. Sydney, who was born and raised in Florida, moved on over to the stunning island of Mallorca, Spain where she currently works on a 42-meter sailing yacht! This is nothing new for Sydney; considering her experience on Below Deck and, of course, her long history of sailing with her family. In addition to being at sea, Sydney decided to become a travel agent with Explorateur Travel. While the cast of Sailing Yacht has gone their separate ways since the summer ended, Sydney still managed to bump into none other than Captain Glenn on the streets of Palma.

Jean-Luc Cerza Lanaux

Jean-Luc may be the youngest Below Deck crew member but he certainly makes up for it in height? Following his summer working on the Parsifal III, Jean-Luc traveled to Mallorca, Spain, an idea many of his co-stars had as well. Shortly after, the 25-year-old made his way on over to Costa Rica , which he’s called home for the last several months. Despite the remarkable views, Jean-Luc is entering some rocky waters as a plethora of rumors have surfaced questioning his role in Dani Soares’ pregnancy. Not only have fans been flooding his social media with questions concerning whether he’s the father or not, but fellow charter guest, Barrie Drewitt-Barlow also went on to add fuel to the fire. In an Instagram video posted back in April, Barrie claimed that Jean-Luc “was too busy getting the other one [Dani] pregnant … He’s gonna be a daddy,” he said. While Dani laughed off the comment, Jean-Luc has yet to address the rumors.

Below Deck Loses 2 Crewmembers After a Firing and a Dramatic Season 11 Departure

Below deck 's capt. kerry titheradge fired the first season 11 yachtie during the bravo series' march 18 episode, but that wasn't the only shocking departure. find out who else left the yacht..

The  St. David  is down not one, but two crewmembers.

During Below Deck 's March 18 episode, Captain Kerry Titheradge  fired the first season 11 yachtie when he let Bosun Jared Woodin go for unprofessional behavior, the last straw being an inebriated Jared barging into Stew Barbie Pascual 's cabin the night prior and yelling at Deckhand Kyle Stillie for leaving a mess of loose tobacco on the deck after a night of partying. 

"This is the second time you've gone on the piss and you've had bad behavior," Kerry told his subordinate. "You're in a leadership role. You can't be acting like that. You gotta be above the fray. The way that you're treating these guy is not acceptable."

But it wasn't just the alcohol that was the problem, as Kerry noted Jared's mental state wasn't where it needed to be. "You've got s--t going on, man," he shared. "You're your own worst enemy right now. You need to depart the vessel."

However, Jared agreed his head wasn't in the right place and accepted his termination graciously.

"This ain't the right place for me at the right time," Jared replied, to which Kerry responded, "I don't blame you for that. Take this time and work on yourself. Me keeping you here is a disservice to you."

Before departing the super-yacht, Jared reflected in a confessional, "I thought I was in a good headspace coming into this. I'm really not. And as much as I'd like to be I'm just lying to myself."

But Jared wasn't the only teammate to set sail during the latest episode. Stew Cat Baugh willingly left the ship after admittedly struggling with the job all season long.

"I really wanna push through for you guys," Cat, in tears, told Chief Stew Fraser Olender after receiving a very distressing call from a friend back home in America. "I'm just losing my mind right now."

And Fraser totally understood his crewmember's needs.

"If you're in a very unhappy place," he told her, "I'd rather you put your health and your mental health before that and we get you the help you need as soon as we can."

In a confessional, Fraser elaborated, "I don't know what is going on, but you can look into someone's eyes sometimes and see that there is no more that they can give. They are going through enough to be incapable and I need to do what's right for her. "

See how the crew copes with the unexpected departures when Below Deck airs Mondays at 9 p.m. on Bravo. And keep reading to look back at the most shocking Below Deck firings ever.

If there's one thing to learn from Camille Lamb 's Below Deck firing, it's to not slack off on the job. That's exactly why the season 10 stew was let go by substitute Captain Sandy Yawn , as Chief Stew Fraser Olender continued to criticize Camille's behavior on board.

From being caught drinking while preparing for a new charter to partying at late hours and more, Fraser informed Captain Sandy that he had reached his "last straw."

"She's the common denominator in all of this," said Captain Sandy. "Great girl, great personality, but at the same time, we have to do what's best for the boat."

Below Deck Adventure 's Kyle Dickard was let go just three episodes into the reality franchise's latest series—which premiered in November 2022. After picking fights with his fellow deckhand Nathan Morley —as well as kissing crew mates in front of guests—Kyle was offered by Captain Kerry Titheradge the opportunity to resign so that his firing would not end up on his personal record.

Kyle took the Captain up on his offer and left the boat after just one charter.

Captain Sandy let bosun Raygan Tyler go during season seven of Below Deck Mediterranean ,  not only for causing the boat to  take a small hit while docking, but also for not stepping up to the plate as a leader.

But Captain Sandy didn't want her firing to discourage the bosun, as she told Raygan, "If I had the time and I wasn't running a boat this size, I would train you. I would teach you."

In addition to onboard romances and failing to follow directions , one of the biggest reasons behind stew Elizabeth Frankini 's Below Deck firing was her infamous laundry room accident , during which made a toxic mess when combining bleach and laundry soap.

"Unfortunately, I didn't know that was so toxic and I feel so bad about it," she told E! News of the incident in December 2020 . "You know, I do feel really bad, especially 'cause Francesca [ Rubi ] did say, 'Take it outside.'"

The bosun and stew were both fired by Captain Jason Chambers for inappropriate behavior after a night of partying with their fellow yachties.

Luke Jones was let go after getting into Stew Margot Sisson 's bed naked while she was drunk and unconscious. Laura Bileskaine also made unwanted advances on Deckhand Adam Kodra despite him telling her he was not interested in hooking up.

Jason made it known that consent was a must, and sent both crewmembers packing.

Tensions between stew Lexi Wilson and Chef Mathew Shea came to a head during an explosive dinner fight on season six of Below Deck Mediterranean , during which Lexi told Matt that his parents "should've aborted you." That was the last straw for Captain Sandy, who fired her not long after the incident.

Deckhand Tom Pearson said "bon voyage" to Below Deck Sailing Yacht after getting let go by Captain Glenn Shephard . Tom hit his last strike with the Captain after failing to report that the boat's anchor was dragging during heavy winds one night, causing a potential safety risk for everyone on board.

"It had to be done. It was such a grievous thing that he dropped the ball there, he had to go, and we had to just be man down and live with it, you know?" Captain Glenn said of the decision  on Watch What Happens Live. "So, obviously, you don't want to do that, but yeah, it had to happen."

Some people are picky eaters, but Below Deck Down Under' s Ryan McKeown was quite the picky chef, as he would judge guests'  food requests  and fail to take  criticism from Captain Jason Chambers , as well.

Perhaps Ryan's Below Deck exit is one of the franchise's most memorable, as he mooned Jason and viewers on his way off the boat.

Below Deck Down Under stew Magda Ziomek 's firing was another case of slacking on the job. After constantly being on her phone texting or video chatting with her boyfriend, Chief Stew Aesha Scott decided to replace Magda before the end of the charter season.

Below Deck Mediterranean 's Peter Hunziker was fired from the series in June 2020 after he shared an offensive post on social media.

"Peter Hunziker of Below Deck Mediterranean has been terminated for his racist post," Bravo wrote in a statement at the time. "Bravo and 51 Minds are editing the show to minimize his appearance for subsequent episodes."

Chief Stew Hannah Ferrier was let go by Captain Sandy on Below Deck Mediterranean after boson Malia White discovered her co-star possessed undeclared Valium and a vape pen, the former of which Hannah claimed was for her anxiety.

"If I could do it all over again, I would've just declared them as soon as I came on board," Hannah stated in an August 2020 interview with E! News. "It was definitely not something that was intentional. I wasn't trying to hide anything.

Below Deck Mediterranean 's Delaney Evans left just as quickly as she arrived. After initially being brought on during season six to help out Chief Stew Katie Flood , Katie determined that Delaney was doing more harm than good, choosing to let her go after just one charter.

"I think she was overwhelmed with the situation, and I think that, you know, in her mind, the best solution to the situation was just to go back to what they had before," Delaney told Bravo Insider of Katie's decision. "I think she was just overwhelmed with everything that was going on and all the feedback she was getting."

Deckhand Shane Coopersmith was a bit in over his head on season eight of Below Deck , as he was let go for failing to know basic skills, reporting late for duty and taking naps on the job.

Chaos in the kitchen led to Captain Lee Rosbach letting Chef Leon Walker go on season three of Below Deck . After an oven fire broke out , Lee placed the blame on Chief Stew Kate Chastain but was ultimately the one sent home.

Like several of the franchise's stars, Below Deck 's Chris Brown  was fired  during season five for failing to fully perform his duties. After being let go by Captain Lee, Chris shared some parting words as he left the boat, stating , "Who gives a s--t?"

Chef Mila Kolomeitseva was fired by Captain Sandy on season four of Below Deck Mediterranean after failing to use her cooking skills to produce top-quality food for guests—including some not-so-nice nachos .

"Of course it makes me feel awful," Mila said of her departure . "People like me who have big egos sometimes have to be put down to earth a little bit. But it makes me feel like I want to work even harder."

Sometimes people just don't work well together. That's exactly why Captain Lee fired Chandler Brooks during season six of Below Deck , telling the boson, "I don't think it's a good fit."

• Failed stews like Ashley Marti, Laura Bileskalne, and June Foster faced criticism for their lack of professionalism and competence in their roles.
• Stews from different Below Deck seasons and spin-offs committed unforgettable faux pas, behavioral blunders, and relationship troubles.

Since its first voyage in 2013, Below Deck has been a beacon of opulent escapism, showcasing the trials and tribulations of yacht crew life across the Mediterranean, Australia, and more. Outside the glitz and glamour, some Below Deck stews have steered the ship astray with their lackluster performances and questionable behaviors. The franchise has its fair share of employee casualties, from Raquel "Rocky" Dakota's lack of competency in Below Deck season 3 to Caroline Bedol's infamous "bru" debacle in Below Deck season 6. Below Deck's luxury yacht crew faces intense scrutiny over their work ethic, igniting heated debates among audiences.

In the high seas of luxury yacht hospitality, Below Deck sets sail with a crew of stews tasked with impeccable service - but not all sailors shine bright in their roles. From miscommunications to misfortunes, the Below Deck franchise documented 10 stews that faltered the most and ended up getting fired or quitting for lack of professionalism. Stews from different Below Deck seasons and spin-offs committed unforgettable faux pas, behavioral blunders, and relationship troubles. Some individuals missed the hospitality mark, leaving guests less than impressed.

Ashley Marti

Below deck sailing yacht season 3.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 3's Ashley Marti sparked a love triangle, entangling herself between her coworkers Tom Pearson and Gary King. Ashley's presence ruffled feathers immediately, earning her a reputation as a know-it-all despite frequent errors in her steward duties. Drama ensued with Ashley on each charter, particularly with second stew Gabriela Barragan. BDSY followers rallied behind Gabriela, painting Ashley as a villain. Audiences accused Ashley of not taking her job as a steward seriously and called her out for a rotten attitude and personality. BDSY watchers found Ashley's pushy demeanor offensive, making her difficult to work with.

Laura Bileskalne

Below deck down under season 2.

Below Deck Down Under season 2's Laura Bileskalne was the second stew marred by a series of glaring shortcomings. Aesha Scott, quick to discern the issues, noted Laura's penchant for prioritizing her appearance over her steward duties. Time wasted on personal grooming became a recurrent theme, exacerbating tensions. Laura's focus on trivial matters, like lime preferences, fueled conflicts with Aesha. Her self-centered attitude surfaced further when she pursued a romantic entanglement with Bosun, Luke Jones, despite his inappropriate behavior towards colleague Margot Sisson. Laura developed an allegiance to Luke during a harassment fallout, resulting in her firing.

June foster, below deck mediterranean season 4.

June Foster's tenure on Below Deck Med was brief due to the evolution of her role. Initially, Captain Sandy Yawn hired June as a replacement for Anastasia Surmava following her promotion to chef, but June's stint was unexpectedly cut short. Despite proving her steward capabilities, June's position became redundant, leading to her discharge by Captain Sandy. June, feeling justified in her abilities, was angered by Captain Sandy's decision, deeming her time on the ship useless. Audiences advocate for June's second chance on Below Deck Med as she demonstrated competence in her role, suggesting her dramatic exit and firing were unjustified.

Below Deck Season 11

Cat Baugh, a newcomer to Below Deck season 11 aboard St. David, has confronted mental health challenges, breakdowns, and a negative attitude detracting from audience enjoyment. Cat's no stranger to yachting, but her struggle to adapt to the demands of her stewardess role on a superyacht is evident. Unlike her colleagues, Cat's prior experience mainly involved private charters, lacking the high-end service expectations of St. David. This disconnect between Cat and her coworkers has fueled tensions, with her emotional state and work ethic falling short. Transitioning from smaller to luxury vessels has proven daunting for Cat, impacting her performance onboard.

Raquel “Rocky” Dakota

Below deck season 3.

Raquel's stint as a stewardess on Below Deck , season 3, left the crew and audiences questioning her competency. From Raquel's erratic behavior to her inability to prioritize tasks, "Rocky" failed to meet the standards expected in the yachting industry. Raquel's penchant for melodrama often overshadowed her duties while working on the Eros mega-yacht, leading to tension among the crew. Raquel's decision to engage in a public spat with fellow crew member Kate Chastain and other off-putting behaviors disrupted the harmony onboard. Raquel's lack of professionalism and organizational skills ultimately rendered her ill-suited for the demanding role of a yacht stewardess.

Caroline Bedol

Below deck season 6.

Caroline made waves in Below Deck season 6 with her unforgettable dramatic exit. Despite Caroline's experience and passion for the adventurous yachting lifestyle, she faced numerous setbacks and conflicts throughout her tenure on the show. Caroline's clashes with Chief Stewardess Kate became a focal point, and tension escalated as the season progressed. Caroline demonstrated an inability to communicate and collaborate with her fellow crew members. Caroline also struggled with homesickness, anxiety, and a few injuries, which impacted her work performance. Caroline's frequent clashes and confrontations with her coworkers also disrupted the harmony onboard, creating a tense working environment for everyone.

10 Below Deck Charter Guests Who Will Never Return To The Franchise

Magda ziomek, below deck down under season 1.

In Below Deck Down Under season 1, Captain Jason Chambers terminated the third stew, Magda Ziomek . Despite Magda's initial promise, her work ethic faltered, prompting dissatisfaction among the crew. The situation escalated when Magda veered off course, engaging in flirtatious behavior with coworker Jamie Sayed despite having a boyfriend. Recognizing Magda's detrimental impact on teamwork and conduct, Captain Jason prioritized the integrity of the vessel's operations. With a firm hand, Captain Jason fired Magda to ensure standards remained unwavering, asserting authority in the face of interpersonal distractions. Magda's flirtation with a coworker breached professionalism, undermining team cohesion and work values.

Elizabeth Frankini

Below deck season 8.

Elizabeth Frankini's downfall as a stewardess on Below Deck season 8 stemmed from a clash with Chief Stew Francesca Rubi. At first, Elizabeth and Francesca's work relationship seemed functional, but friction arose as Francesca perceived Elizabeth as lacking competence and prone to making questionable remarks. Captain Lee Rosbach terminated Elizabeth for sleeping in the guest cabin, a forbidden but familiar practice seen in other Below Deck iterations. Elizabeth's not-so-secret romance with fellow crew member James Hough also raised eyebrows. Elizabeth's frequent involvement with coworkers constantly distracted her and undermined her credibility as a reliable crew member.

Lexi Wilson

Below deck mediterranean season 6.

Lexi Wilson from Below Deck Mediterranean season 3 showcased a litany of traits detrimental to her role as a yacht stewardess. Lexi's lack of professionalism manifested through her inconsistent work ethic, often prioritizing socializing over duties paramount to guest satisfaction. Frequently embroiled in conflicts with fellow crew members, Lexi's abrasive demeanor hindered her teamwork skills, disrupting the vessel's operations. Lexi's questionable conduct on her social media account later drew criticism, including controversial remarks and unbecoming behavior unaligned with the values of a reputable employee. Lexi's inability to maintain decorum on and off-screen contributed to her reputation as a subpar employee.

Camille Lamb

Below deck season 10.

Camille Lamb from Below Deck season 10 failed to uphold the standard of excellence expected in the yachting industry. Camille exhibited a lackluster work ethic during her season, often prioritizing personal matters over professional responsibilities. In one instance, Camille neglected her duties to engage in petty conflicts with colleagues, compromising the smooth order of operations. Camille's subpar performance was evident in her failure to meet deadlines and execute tasks precisely - resulting in dissatisfaction among Below Deck crew members and charter guests. Camille's inconsistent performance rendered her unsuitable for the demanding environment of luxury yacht service, and she got fired.

Below Deck airs Mondays at 9 p.m. EDT on Bravo and streams the next day on Peacock.

First TV Show Below Deck

Screen Rant

10 below deck charter guests who will never return to the franchise.

While the charter guests who appear on Below Deck have a great time while filming the show, many aren't invited back for a number of reasons.

• Some charter guests on Below Deck have caused unnecessary drama and won't likely return due to bad behavior.
• Captain Glenn Shephard from Below Deck Sailing Yacht faced backlash from Barrie, who called him two-faced.
• Former guest Dr. Francis Martinis will not return to Below Deck after he was arrested for faking prescriptions.

The Below Deck franchise has featured many charter guests since 2013, many of whom will never return . The Bravo series focuses on expensive charters with wealthy guests who have attitude problems and over-the-top demands. That includes Charter guest Alexis Bellino, who boarded Captain Lee Rosbach’s yacht with her boyfriend at the time, Andy Bohn. She was disrespectful and made everyone uncomfortable with her and Andy's PDA. She even insulted crew members after featuring on the show.

Like Alexis, Delores Flora from Below Deck season 8 was a terrible guest. Not only did she misbehave, but she also got drunk and s wam while intoxicated, which is not only not allowed, it frightened the crew members. Delores got kicked out of the yacht the next day. These guests created unnecessary drama on the boat and will likely never return like a few others from the franchise.

Barrie and Tony Drewitt Barlow had a decent time in the Below Deck Sailing Yacht seasons 2 and 3. Despite that, they left with a bitter taste because of Captain Glenn Shephard. In 2021, Barrie participated in a podcast, Pita Party: The Podcast , where he claimed that Captain Glenn bothered him while using his phone .

Barrie said, “he (Captain Glenn) was a two-face b*stard,” adding that he just didn’t like his presence.

7 Frank Fay

Below deck mediterranean.

In Below Deck Mediterranean season 7, Charter guest Frank Fay had a thing for second stew Kyle Viljoen. He pursued him on the yacht, but unfortunately, their relationship didn’t last. Frank will likely never return to the series as long as Captain Sandy Yawn allows Kyle to work for her. Even if Kyle quits, Frank wouldn’t want to be in an environment that would remind him of his failed relationship.

6 Erica Rose

Erica Rose appeared on Below Deck Sailing Yacht two seasons in a row. Erica was highly offensive toward the crew member, as well as her husband, Charles Sanders, and to make things worse, she left the crew with a measly tip , leading fans to slam her on social media. Ultimately, Erica had to apologize for her bad attitude but never returned to give the crew the tip they deserved. Nobody on Below Deck Sailing Yacht would ever want to return.

5 Justin Guarini

Justin Guarini’s time on Below Deck Sailing Yacht was not dramatic at all; however, he’ll probably never return to the series. Justin wouldn’t return because he wasn't the primary guest. He joined his friend, Kim, who wanted to enjoy a luxury yacht trip. It was more of a one-and-done deal. Secondly, nobody recognized him at all. Viewers later realized who he was and how he was the runner-up on American Idol season 1. Justin is a theatre artist and has made a name for himself. However, it was embarrassing that so many fans had no clue who he was .

Below Deck: 8 Charter Guests With The Worst Attitudes

4 johnny damon.

Johnny Damon’s time at Below Deck Med was full of explosive moments. Once, he sent the food back, citing that the experience wasn’t “five stars.” On another occasion, his wife, Michelle, created drama by yelling at the owner of another yacht . Overall, the experience was simply terrible on both sides. Crew members didn’t love Johnny and his wife, and the couple didn’t respect the crew members. It is unlikely that Captain Sandy would want to host the couple again as long as she’s in charge.

3 Krystal Murphy

Former charter guest Krystal Murphy boarded Captain Lee’s yacht with her friends. She immediately began showing red flags, drinking, and just being a menace. Krystal fought with her friend, Chelsea, creating unnecessary drama. She even passed out and punched a friend in the face. Former Chief Stew Kate Chastain disliked serving Krystal and called her a “spoiled brat;” she wanted to throw her off the yacht. Nowadays, Krystal has seemingly become a more private person. It doesn’t seem like Krystal would want to be on TV again.

2 Steve Bradley

Below Deck fans should remember Steve Bradley as he made many appearances on the show. In Below Deck season 3, he wanted a foam party and demanded the crew to figure it out and follow his commands, acting like a king. In Below Deck season 6, Steve made more outrageous requests. Apart from being a wild guest, Steve was entitled and acted inappropriately at times . No Below Deck captain would want to host him again as he didn't come off as very likable.

1 Dr. Francis Martinis

Below deck mediterranean & below deck sailing yacht.

Dr. Francis Martinis from Below Deck Med and Below Deck Sailing Yacht has a zero chance of returning. While the former charter guest didn’t have too many issues on the show, his personal life issues will stop him from appearing on Bravo again. According to TMZ , Dr. Francis and his wife, Jessica, were arrested for filling out fake prescriptions in December 2023 . The couple used the names of Below Deck stars and got caught red-handed. The Below Deck franchise would never want to welcome felons, especially when their mugshots are all over the internet.

Below Deck airs Mondays at 9 p.m. EDT on Bravo.

Below Deck Season 11, Episode 8 Recap: Sunny with a Chance of Pouting

Welcome back to  Below Deck  Season 11, Episode 8. In this week’s episode, titled “Murder on the High Seas,” Ben nearly strands the guests on the beach as a storm moves in, but Captain Kerry saves the day. A murder mystery is solved, and a deckhand comes on board ( RIP, Jared ), causing the female half of the crew to drool. Here are some highlights from Below Deck Season 11, Episode 8.

A dangerous situation

Since Cat went home last week, Fraser has to plan a beach sunset drinks party and an after-dinner murder mystery with only two stews, in addition to serving dinner.

When Ben drops the guests off at the beach, the water is deep right up to the shore, where it suddenly gets shallow. He has to be careful not to run the tender aground, which is tough since there’s a current pushing him that way. He accidentally sucks some sand into the impeller.

“It’s the sound that you never want to hear,” he says. “It’s like a grinding, crunching sound. It means you’re in trouble.”

The captain comes out in the ski boat and tells Ben, “I think the engine got too hot, mate. Now we’ve got f*cking no battery.” And in addition to the tide changing, there’s a storm coming!

“We’ve gotta get them back on the boat,” Ben says. Thanks, Captain Obvious.

“If this tide continues to drop, I can’t even get to the beach,” Kerry says. “[And] if I beach the ski boat, we’re stuck here for the night. Time to do some captain sh*t.” It’s a race against time to get everyone off the beach before the tide recedes.

Maneuvering the boat, Kerry says, “Stand back. I’ll tell you when.”

When a guest tries to climb in, he yells, “No one moves toward the boat until I say so! Understood?”

“That captain’s getting very aggro,” another guest comments.

“Nothing trumps safety,” Kerry says. “I will do everything I can to keep a guest safe … There’s a lot of moving parts here. This is a very dangerous situation.”

But with teamwork and a little cooperation, Kerry gets everyone safely off the beach.

Who killed poor Fraser?

Back on the boat, the interior crew not only has to serve dinner but also present a murder mystery. Fraser asks for Ben’s help in staging the murder mystery, so he and his crew can focus on service. He knows how to delegate.

Before retiring for the night, the Captain greets the guests at the dinner table. “I got a little firm today, but I was worried about your safety,” he says. “I apologize.” Everyone thanks him for keeping them safe, except for the woman he actually yelled at. Lesley still looks miffed and avoids eye contact.

As the guests enjoy their dessert, Barbie suddenly runs into the room screaming, falls on the floor, and shrieks, “There’s been a murder!”

After following the clues around the boat, they discover Fraser’s “dead body” lying on the floor in the master cabin, and the “killer” is revealed. Everyone laughs and has a wonderful time.

“Considering how we threw it together,” Kyle tells Ben, “I think we did pretty well, to be honest with you, lad. Eh?” Notice that Kyle gets subtitles since he has such a thick Scottish accent, but I think Kerry could use them sometimes as well. Often I have to rewind and replay a few times to figure out what he’s saying. He does have a thick Aussie accent.

“The guests were happy, right?” Kyle adds.

“No, they’re drunk,” Ben laughs.

New kid in town

The Captain gets a call from Yacht Services. The new deckhand will arrive in about 30 minutes. Dylan is 23 and hails from Cape Town. He’s been in yachting four years, and he’s really pretty.

Sunny greets the newcomer with a giggle, “Hi! I’m Sunny! Nice to meet you.”

“Wow!” she interviews. “Who is this model-looking man coming on board? My jaw’s on the floor.” Ben who?

Kerry welcomes Dylan to the boat during the tip meeting. “We kicked off this charter a crew member down,” he says. “Then, unexpectedly, Cat had to depart. I saw you guys get together and help each other out. You guys … and did an amazing job.”

“The total tip …” he teases, with a long pause and a twinkle in his eye, “$30,000! … $2,727 apiece.” Yowza.

“Dylan, you just joined us,” Kerry continues. “I took $50 off of everyone else’s tip to give you $550.” He did work a whole day, after all.

“We got the biggest tip of the season,” Kerry interviews, “and everyone did an absolutely amazing job … [I’m] extremely impressed.”

Even though Dylan is gorgeous on the outside, when he opens his mouth, it’s a different story. “When Dylan talks, honestly…” Sunny says, cringing.

“If I was dating him,” Barbie adds, “I’d be, like, ‘Just be quiet the whole dinner.’”

“I think he’d be a great one-night stand,” Sunny says.

“I think so, too,” Barbie agrees. He just needs to “shut the f*ck up. Shhhh!”

Sunny in the shade

After dinner, they all go out dancing. Ben and Xandi are dancing cheek-to-cheek. Sunny sees them, and her mouth drops open in shock. She thinks she and Ben are a couple. She’s in for a rude awakening.

“Ben is pissing me the f*ck off,” she interviews. “He’s touchy/feely with Xandi. Ben is disrespecting what we have.” You’re not engaged, Sunny. You’re just having sex.

“That just makes me want to set his bunkbed on fire,” she says. Hide the bunnies, people. Sunny’s on the boil.

“[Ben’s] all over Xi,” Sunny tells Barbie.

Barbie advises her to “concentrate on Sunny. You’re not here for a f*cking love story.”

Back on the boat, Ben asks Sunny. “How’s your night?” He has no clue she’s pissed at him.

“Good,” she says. “I think I just need a minute to myself.”

“Okay,” he responds. “I’ll leave you to it.”

“I can’t deal with Sunny,” he tells Fraser. “I can’t read her.” See? No clue. “I’m just sick of the bullsh*t back and forth … One minute she’s kissing me, the next minute she’s giving me the cold shoulder. I don’t know what to do.”

Barbie urges Xandi to go talk to Sunny. But Xandi thinks it’s ridiculous. Ben’s like her brother.

Meanwhile, Ben and Sunny are talking (in bed). “When Xandi’s drunk,” Sunny tells him, “she’s f*cking all about you. And that triggers me so much.”

“I’m not flirting with Xandi,” Ben says. “I’m dancing with her, yeah … But it’s not [sexual].”

“I’m having a hard time accepting that,” Sunny says.

Below Deck Recap: Vibe Time

Physics tells us that drama can be neither created nor destroyed. (At least, that was my personal takeaway.) Now that Cat’s gone, it’s like the tension she had with the rest of the interior re-homed itself between Xandi, who has worked almost unceasingly all day, and Barbie, who just needs a sec to lie down and puff on her vape, all right?

Don’t get me wrong: Carriacou looks very nice, but the way the captain has talked about the island for the last episode and a half now had me expecting to take one look at the place, sell all my earthly possessions, buy a one-way plane ticket, and throw myself into my new life as soon as possible. As it is — I think I’m good, thank you. The beach is hard to access, with a strong current in the shallows. While the guests are happily snorkeling and drinking, Kerry and Ben are having a capital-B Bad time. The boat is making an upsettingly crunchy grinding noise thanks to sand getting into the impeller. Fraser, wisely, just keeps on refilling everyone’s Champagne glasses.

Sunset is turning to dark and a storm is blowing in. Captain Kerry makes the call: They need to go back, now. If the boat gets beached, they’ll be stranded overnight. Pretty sure I already saw that episode when it was theatrically released under the title Triangle of Sadness. But getting everyone aboard is not trivial — they have to time it right with the increasingly serious waves rolling in. Lesley, the primary, sort of just launches herself at the stern, prompting Kerry to yell, “No one moves toward the boat till I say so!” That’s the harshest I’ve ever heard him speak to a guest, though it certainly feels justified. Can you do everybody a favor and stay alive, please, at least through the length of the charter?

They make it back to the St. David without any casualties. But there will be a death on the yacht tonight. A murder, in fact. While the guests eat dinner and practice the vaguely British accents that for some reason always feel appropriate for an ambiguously period-y murder mystery (more accurately, they sound like sixth-graders cast as grown-ups in a school play, just sort of speaking more loudly and slowly than usual), the already-understaffed exterior scrambles to ad lib a series of staged clues, with the help of a bunch of random props that Fraser has ordered. The job description for deckhands has expanded considerably.

That’s not to say the interior isn’t doing their part, too. The game begins when Barbie runs into the dining room in a frenzy, screaming, “There’s been a murder!” She is so committed to the bit that she immediately falls over and exposes her whole butt. It is a very auspicious start to the festivities. Fraser is the evening’s Mr. Boddy, our designated corpse. “It’s Fletcher !” someone screams when they come upon him in the stateroom, not far from the murder weapon (a pizza roller).

The clues, (semi-)rhyming couplets, send the guests running all over the boat and they absolutely love it. The crew crushed this — as Ben points out, it’s also helpful that these people are pretty drunk.

What Anthony has in charm he lacks in organizational skills. The galley is even more of a war zone than usual, scattered with eggs (as always, so many eggs; beginning to believe that the yacht’s engine runs on crushed shells), various sauces and condiments (including at least two separate bottles of ketchup), a dirty blender, and more pots and pans than I would have thought were on the boat in total. It takes him until after 3 a.m. to finish cleaning up. Predictably, the next morning, he is totally exhausted. Fraser has to rise to the occasion and actually come up with a breakfast menu, a new responsibility he isn’t thrilled to take on. (Also, I feel like I never comment on the tablescapes except to rag on them, but I actually really like the bright-orange-rimmed plates combined with those swirly green vertical napkins. Go team!)

Our new deckhand finally arrives, birthed from the sea foam like Aphrodite. Dylan, a 23-year-old from Cape Town, has one of the widest smiles possible amid the constraints of human biology and is so hot that he immediately threatens to disrupt the established sexual ecosystem of the boat. He is also, I say this with affection, a complete weirdo. A formerly overweight kid who became extremely fit out of spite, he can now individually pop his pecs, which are named James and Barry. (Why? I assume we will never know.) He also speaks of his fondness for high-fiving strangers while out running. “They won’t understand any of it,” he says. “But they will remember you.” This is precisely how I already feel about Dylan.

Ben’s first docking as bosun goes off beautifully, even in the unwelcome presence of a big-ass cargo ship; I cannot parallel park under the best of terrestrial circumstances, so these people never fail to amaze me. Lesley says a very emotional and grateful good-bye and hands over what looks like a commensurately thick envelope. She tipped $30,000, which works out to a very healthy $2,725 per person (and a prorated $550 for Dylan). Captain Kerry is pleased with their work — A+ charter all around.

Dylan continues to distinguish himself on his first night out with his new co-workers. He tries to convince Kyle to take a shot via his nostril. He explains his theory that déjà vu is just, duh, memories we’ve lived on another of the many timelines we are currently experiencing. “It’s vibe time, baby!” he will later shout on the dance floor. “Vibe time is my time!” (In a confessional, Sunny and Barbie rate him a great potential one-night stand, as long as he doesn’t talk.)

While Kyle helpfully sucks a bug out of Fraser’s drink, and Dylan and Anthony stake their romantic claims on the replacement stew who has not even arrived yet, Ben spends time with Xandi. They’ve gotten a lot closer — she introduced him to her mom on FaceTime as her brother earlier that day. While they’re all out dancing, they hug and they whisper and Ben touches her waist. Sunny is deeply upset when she oversees these interactions, which, by the way, are scored hilariously to a club remix of the “Ride of the Valkyries.”

Was it sort of flirty, touchy-feely? Sure. This is Mr. “ I’m Cheeky, I’m Aussie, It’s Charismatic ” we’re dealing with, after all. But I believe Ben and especially Xandi when they say their relationship is platonic. Everyone knows what jealousy feels like, and it is a certified no-fun experience, so it’s not that I don’t feel for Sunny. But I will note that she recently shared in a confessional that the last time she was in love, she wasn’t actually in a relationship with the person — which, with admittedly zero additional context, does raise some question marks for me surrounding boundaries and expectations. She says Ben is “disrespecting what we have,” which raises the question: What do they have, exactly? Is he her boyfriend? Have they established if they’re dating exclusively? Do they have a clear understanding of what kinds of behaviors are and aren’t okay with the other person?

In happier news, Kyle and Fraser smooch on the van ride home.

Back on the boat, Barbie and Fraser slurringly try to smooth things over with all parties involved, to mixed success. I give Sunny credit for going to Ben directly to share her feelings. For her part, Xandi totally dismisses any possible romantic connection with Ben, because that would be “incestry [ sic ].” But she quickly gets pissed off at the thought that she’d be expected to change how she acts to protect someone else’s self-esteem. “Catch me outside,” she snaps, a phrase I do not believe I’ve heard a human being say aloud since at least 2018.

‘RHONY’ Alum Jill Zarin Strikes Fear Into Yachties Everywhere In The ‘Below Deck’ Mid-Season Trailer: “Make It Better!”

Where to stream:, ‘below deck’ bosun ben willoughby teases trouble waters ahead: “i had hard conversations that didn’t go in my favor”, ‘below deck’ star barbie pascual knows her attitude this season was “unnecessary”: “i see what everybody else sees when i watch myself”, ‘below deck’ exclusive clip: fraser olender shocked by primary guest’s meltdown over ice cream.

Below Deck fans know that there is always a point in the season when all hell breaks loose…and it looks like, predictably, the yachties of Season 11 are about to experience some of that pure chaos. In the gripping mid-season trailer for Bravo’s flagship Below Deck series , the crew of the motor yacht St. David is straight-up losing it as it appears that everything is going wrong. Captain Kerry Titheradge encourages his crew to embrace the “ups and downs” of the charters so far, and he reminds his team that they “don’t do [yachting] because it’s easy.” Titheradge’s wise words seem to fall on deaf ears, however. Chef Anthony Iracane breaks down in the very next scene. “I’m so tired,” he says weakly.  Next, we see the distraught chef in his cabin. “I’m not good enough to be on this boat,” he cries as he rubs his head with his hands in despair.

Next to break down is Stew Barbie Pascual , who bemoans the state of her strained working relationship with Chief Stew Fraser Olender . “Everybody here knows there’s shit going between me and Fraser,” Pascual confides as scenes of her stressed-out, crying and scowling at Olender play out. When Olender glares at her during an excursion, Pascual asks him point-blank, “Do you want me to go?” The camera than cuts to Olender’s confessional as he states, “I’d rather have no sleep than have to look at your face every morning.” Way harsh!

After Titheradge is shown raging at Bosun Ben Willoughby for his “blatant disrespect” and Stew Xandi Oliver is seen throwing a fit in the back of a van during a late night out, fans are treated to a montage of the yachties falling down as dramatic music plays. Suddenly, a familiar face appears: the notoriously picky Real Housewives of New York alum Jill Zarin. When Zarin critiques the service (“This is a buffet meal. This shouldn’t be a 3-hour meal”) and urges the staff to “make it better,” the yachties continue scrambling. The trailer also teases the arrival of a mysterious new Stew who catches the eye of both Willoughby and Deckhand Kyle Stillie. “Bloody hell, I’m in trouble,” Willoughby says to the camera as his “shipuationship,” Sunny Marquis, watches his every move.

To add to the mayhem, Pascual’s and Stillie’s relationship seems to be heating up as the two are shown flirting and making out. The trailer ends with a stern looking Titheradge addressing an unseen crew member. “The issue is you’re not thriving,” says Titheradge. “If you’re not all encompassing and adding value to the rest of the crew, I can’t have you here.” So, who is Titheradge addressing? Tune in to the rest of Below Deck Season 11 to find out!

A Beach Picnic on Below Deck Goes Incredibly Wrong: “This Is a Very Dangerous Situation”

"I will do everything I can to keep a guest safe,” Captain Kerry Titheradge said about the difficult situation he dealt with on the recent episode of Below Deck . 

It appeared to be trouble in paradise for the St. David crew on the latest episode of Below Deck .

How to Watch

After losing two yachties (bosun Jared Woodin and stew Cat Baugh ), the remaining crew members are starting to feel the pressure of being short-staffed. On Season 11, Episode 8 of Below Deck , the charter guests enjoyed a laid-back beach picnic on the shores of Carriacou, Grenada. Although the day started off serene, it ended up getting cut short thanks to troubled waters and a rainstorm.

Captain Kerry Titheradge reacts to Carriacou’s beach conditions

Upon arriving on the shores of Carriacou to set up the beach picnic, Captain Kerry Titheradge expressed concerns about the water current to deckhand Kyle Stillie and Chief Stew Fraser Olender .

“Yikes, this isn’t great,” he said. “Do you see how far the water is coming up?”

Kerry then informed his right-hand staffers that they would have to unload all the equipment from the water because of the "shallow beach." While the issue required more work for Fraser and Kyle, Kerry reassured them that the “risk is worth the reward.”

Of course, the charter guests were thoroughly impressed with their offsite lunch location, which included activities like snorkeling, swimming, and sunbathing.

Ben Willoughby experiences engine “trouble” with the tender on the beach

Moments later, Ben Willoughby soon found himself in a bind after he mistakenly was pushed too close to the beach by the current while dropping off a charter guest.

After trying several failed attempts to start up the engine, Kerry stepped in to help Ben resolve the issue.

“It’s the sound that you never want to hear,” Ben said in the clip above. “Sand gets sucked up in the impeller. It’s like a grinding, crunching sound – it means you’re in trouble. F-ck!”

Due to a shortage of vessels, the St. David crew had to figure out a way to transport their guests back to the yacht. Kerry proposed an "all in one" solution, which involved having everyone pile in a boat and towing the tender behind them.

What Cat Baugh's Been Up to Since She Left Below Deck Season 11

The below deck crew deals with a “very dangerous situation”.

While attempting to board guests onto the boat, Kerry had to navigate through troubled waters and an incoming storm. Keeping everyone's safety in mind, he instructed them not to "move towards the boat" until he approved to do so.

In his confessional, Kerry revealed the severity of the circumstances he was dealing with.

“Nothing crops safety. I will do everything I can to keep a guest safe,” he clarified. “I’ve got to read the waves, bring the boat in on a calm wave, and back it out on the high waves…”

He added: “This is a very dangerous situation I’m in right now.” In the end, Kerry safely got everyone on board before it started raining.
