Below Deck star Captain Kerry Titheradge has opened up about taking over for Captain Lee Rosbach while also sharing some advice he got from the stud of the sea.
Captain Kerry debuted in his new role at the helm of the Og Below Deck last night.
The legacy Captain Lee built isn’t lost on Captain Kerry, and he knows he has big shoes to fill.
It turns out the two men have known each other for a while because they used to play golf together.
When Captain Kerry signed on for Below Deck Adventure, he reached out to Captain Lee for a little bit of advice.
“I called Lee up and I asked him, I said, ‘Mate, would you do this again if you could redo this?’ He said, ‘Absolutely, mate…’ and his best piece of advice is just, be yourself and that is what I did,” Captain Kerry expressed to Entertainment Tonight.

Kate Chastain may no longer be on Below Deck, but that hasn’t stopped her from sharing her opinion on the hit franchise.
The Below Deck alum spilled the tea on several Bravo hot topics as she promoted her return to The Traitors.
The other night, Kate stopped by Watch What Happens Live to chat with Andy Cohen and Chrissy Teigen.
Kate didn’t hold back giving her opinion on her fellow The Traitors’ co-stars like Tamra Judge and Phaedra Parks.
The first-time mom expected more from Tamra but thinks Phaedra’s bringing it to the hit Peacock show.
Despite her thoughts on The Traitors, it’s really some of her Below Deck remarks that have fans talking.

Jessika Asai has addressed her Below Deck Med Season 8 finale behavior after enduring much backlash from fans.
This season of Below Deck Med ended with Jessika making a fool of herself because of Luka Brunton.
To be quite honest, it was a theme for Jessika once Luka turned his attention to her following Natalya Scudder’s exit.
In the finale, Jessika goes on a drinking bender because she is mad at Luka, only to hook up with him at the end of the crew night out.
As Monsters and Critics previously reported, Below Deck Med fans blasted Jessika for not having self-esteem or self-worth.
Now, she’s speaking out on the subject and reflecting on her Below Deck Med journey.

Below Deck Med fans are dragging Jessika Asai for her behavior with Luka Brunton as Season 8 ends.
There’s no question the current season of Below Deck Med was hard to watch.
However, the finale took things to a whole new level when Jessika went on a drunken rampage to get back at Luka for texting with Katie Flood and making out with Natalya Scudder.
Not only did Jessika kiss Max Salvador and another random dude making a fool of herself, but she still hooked up with Luka after all that drama.
It wasn’t the first time that Jessika had gone off on Luka for the way he treated her, only to give in and have sex with him when she was drunk.

‘Below Deck Med’ Bromance: Chef Jack Explains His Friendship With Max Salvador – ‘He Makes Me Laugh’
Chef Jack Luby from Below Deck Mediterranean wanted to clarify that deckhand Max Salvador was a bright spot for him this season, but there’s no way he’d want to work with him in the same department.
Luby and Salvador seemed to have forged a strong bond and friendship. And while Salvador could easily get a laugh out of Luby, viewers are seeing how no one is laughing at his antics on deck, especially lead deckhand Lara Du Preez.
Salvador’s attitude is also becoming a source of frustration for bosun Luka Brunton, so why did Luby get along so well with Salvador?
Chef Jack loves ‘Max to death’ but wouldn’t work with him
“I keep being asked this quite a lot. I love Max to death,” Luby told Showbiz Cheat Sheet. “But I’ll be honest. That’s probably because I didn’t work with him directly.

Below Deck Mediterranean chief stew Tumi Mhlongo is seriously over some of the racist and aggressive comments she’s received on social media.
As the first Black chief stew, Mhlongo is a trailblazer for the series. But she shared being in the public eye on a predominately white show has had its drawbacks. She dragged trolls who attacked her online and recently said she has no regrets about putting them on blast.
“I think I’m also just tired of the narrative. I’ve just had it. You know, when you work so hard to be where you are and then that get discredited because of your race …it’s just offensive,” she said on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
Cohen referred to the comments as being made by “a**holes.” Mhlongo said the remarks were truly “disgusting.”
“I just draw the line,” she added.

The waters have been anything but calm in the Italian Riviera for Captain Sandy Yawn as she leads another charter season on Below Deck Mediterranean. Even before the M/Y Mustique left the dock, she had to navigate through not having Chief Stew Tumi Mhlongo and Stew Kyle Viljoen on board right away due to visa issues. If that weren’t enough, she was down a bosun due to certification verification and paperwork problems with Ruan Irving. Luckily familiar faces in Stew Natalya Scudder and Deckhand Luka Brunton were able to lend a hand. Yawn also has Deckhands Haleigh Gorman and Lara Du Preez, and Stew Jessika Asai rounding out the crew. As Season 8 gets into full swing, the no-nonsense [newly engaged] captain gets candid on what we’ve seen so far and what’s to come. First off, congratulations on your engagement. Why would you say now was the right time to pop the question?...

Below Deck Mediterranean bosun Luka Brunton’s reputation as a ladies’ man was pretty obvious when he appeared on Below Deck Down Under. He kissed stew Jaimee Neale, even though she was deckhand Culver Bradbury’s girlfriend. Plus, he had previously dated Below Deck Down Under stew Magda Ziomek.
So it came as no surprise when second stew Natalya Scudder shared with Showbiz Cheat Sheet that Brunton is the “biggest playboy” in yachting.
“I find it so interesting watching that first commercial that comes out. I forget a lot about what happens, and then I’m watching it with my parents and here’s me,” she said looking embarrassed. “You can see me kissing a man that’s always awkward to watch back. But yes, I do have the hots for Luka. We’ll see where that goes. But Luka also has the hots for everyone. He’s a playboy,...

Tumi Mhlongo Made a ‘Big Move Up’ to ‘Below Deck Med’ Chief Stew, Captain Jason Explains [Exclusive]
Captain Jason Chambers from Below Deck Down Under is eager to see how Tumi Mhlongo embraces her new role of chief stew on Below Deck Mediterranean.
Mhlongo was a second stew on Below Deck Down Under Season 1 and quickly became chief stew Aesha Scott’s right-hand person. Despite being relatively new to yachting at the time, Mhlongo was a natural leader and created gorgeous tablescapes.

Even though Mhlongo was a valued crew member, Chambers said transitioning from second to chief stew is not always an easy process.
“The season starts now, doesn’t it? I’ll have to catch up and see how she goes,” Chambers told Showbiz Cheat Sheet during an interview about Invisalign.
“I’m interested to see,” he added. “It’s a big move up to be a chief stewardess and have that responsibility. And especially on a TV show,...

Below Deck Mediterranean bosun Ruan Irving wins for the shortest amount of time as bosun on the show. Irving boarded the vessel without his original certifications and later Captain Sandy Yawn realized the photo on the paperwork was not Irving.
“You have got to be freaking kidding me. This is someone else’s picture on Ruan’s certificate. This is major,” Yawn said in a confessional. She confirmed with the Port Authority that if a crew member has fraudulent or false paperwork, the vessel could be arrested.
Irving also skirted around where he obtained the certification and as a result Yawn had to leave him on the dock.
Not having that original paperwork, in the beginning, was a huge red flag, temporary chief stew Natalya Scudder told Showbiz Cheat Sheet. All yachties should carry their original certifications on them at all times.

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.
