Some of the crew will probably be navigating a stunning love triangle this season on Below Deck Sailing Yacht.
After working side-by-side for 3 constitution seasons and sustaining a strictly principally platonic relationship — who doesn’t do not forget that drunken sizzling tub makeout session? — Chief Stew Daisy Kelliher at all times insisted that she and First Mate Gary King had been simply good associates. In reality, they filmed their Season 3 reunion appearances through Zoom from the identical house. Gary shocked everybody when he bumped into the opposite room throughout filming to disclose Daisy in the identical location. Even although they nonetheless claimed to solely be “just friends,” viewers had been intrigued.
For the primary time within the present’s historical past, Chief Engineer Colin MacRae returned for the constitution season a single man, following a breakup along with his long-term girlfriend. Colin was prepared and keen to mingle. And Daisy was caught within the center between the 2 males. Entertainment Tonight is dishing all of the triangle deets.
Though there’s at all times been a light-hearted flirtation between them, Gary by no means significantly pursued Daisy. But as quickly as Colin got interested, the First Mate began having second ideas.
“I’m shooting myself in the foot,” Gary admitted about his missed alternative. “Daisy and I have had a connection and I think there’s chemistry there. I’ve had my chance to get with Daisy, [but] I didn’t take my chance. Now she’s hooking up with Colin, and I’m jealous.”
“Going back to previous seasons, seasons 2 and 3, you can kinda see there was maybe a connection between Daisy and Colin,” Gary added. “I certainly noticed it.”
For her half, Daisy felt that if Gary had been , he ought to’ve made his transfer lengthy earlier than Colin stepped up. But Gary blamed his missed alternative on the age-old excuse of geographic undesirability. He lives in New Zealand, whereas Daisy’s house base is within the UK.
“I guess I didn’t shoot my shot just knowing we live two different lives,” he confessed. “I’ve never believed in long distance. I’ve tried that, it didn’t work out and I’d said I’d never do that again . . . Daisy and I see each other for maybe two months a year, and I don’t think that’s a feasible relationship.”
Even although they had been ensnared in a romantic triangle, Gary’s nonetheless near each Daisy and Colin. He and Colin are nonetheless buddies and discuss on a regular basis.

“I’m not gonna let someone get in the way of a friendship. Yes, it was a love triangle and yes, Colin and I do argue a little bit . . . I guess that’s all I’m gonna say, but I think we’ve brushed it under the rug. Our friendship is strong enough not to let anything get in the way of it,” Gary added.
Even although the rivalry brought about some pressure among the many crew, Captain Glenn Shephard stated it by no means mirrored of their work. The visitors by no means had an inkling of the employees romance, which was a feat in itself.
“They kind of police themselves,” Glenn defined. “Our crew in general are pretty good at being discrete.” This is an effective factor, since more often than not when the crew is having drunken sizzling tub events and hooking up with one another, the Captain is in his cabin quietly studying or catching up on his sleep. He admitted he didn’t even find out about half the issues that go on till he watched it on TV months later with the remainder of us.
“I didn’t know about Daisy and Colin right at the beginning,” Glenn confessed. “I knew a little bit later on . . . [but] that’s a testament to them just keeping it [separate from their work].”
Since Glenn had had no clue in regards to the love triangle’s existence till now, Entertainment Tonight shocked him with a video message from Daisy asking him to weigh in. “Team Colin or Team Gary?”
“Don’t tell [Gary],” Glenn whispered, “[But] I’m probably Team Colin!” Wow! “Jesus,” Gary exclaimed. “[Even] I’m team Colin!”
“Gary’s a mess,” Glenn joked, admitting that each guys are like household and he loves them each. “Choosing teams is kinda like choosing your favorite kid, but Colin’s a little more settled down.” Also much more mature and accountable. Even although he’s bought a superb coronary heart, Gary’s nonetheless just about a child.
“So if Daisy’s asking me,” Glenn continued, “if I had to choose one, I would probably say, go with Team Colin, ’cause [Gary’s] got more women chasing him.”
