Below Deck Mediterranean Producers Break the Fourth Wall in a Rare Show Moment

Here's why a camera crew made an appearance on Below Deck Mediterranean Season 9. 

By Abby Feiner

Below Deck Mediterranean follows the Mustique crew as they navigate the fun and challenges of their charter season. Although the show doesn't often break the fourth wall by having the camera crews as a part of the story, there was a rare exception in Season 9, Episodes 2 and 3.

Episode 2, which aired on June 10, ended with the crew arriving back to the yacht after a night out. As Nathan Gallagher and Gael Cameron walked together, Nathan whispered, "We need to lose these cameras."

Back in their cabins, Nathan texted Gael to ask, "Where should we meet that has no cameras?" and followed up with a solution: "The starboard bow locker has no cameras Let's go there."

Gael agreed to the plan, texting Nathan, "Tell me when you are there and if you get caught."

What happened between Nathan Gallagher and Gael Cameron on Below Deck Mediterranean Season 9, Episode 3? 

Episode 3 of the season kicked off with Gael running into the camera crew as she attempted to meet Nathan. A camera operator asked, "Do you need a mic?" to which Gael said, "I'm not gonna speak. I'm just getting water real quick. I'm not going to speak to anyone."

She then texted Nathan to let him know she "just got caught by the cameras" and decided not to go through with their plan. "Let's call it a night," she wrote.

In a confessional, Gael, who had a boyfriend, explained, "I'm still in a relationship, and I feel like I'm definitely having stronger feelings than I need to have in this moment. I need to go to sleep."

On Episode 2, Gael talked to Aesha Scott about her relationship with her boyfriend, noting they had been together for five months.

"At the moment, our relationship is a little bit of a long shot," she said. "We're still trying to figure out the total trust factor. Like, I know he's a bit of a flirtatious person, and what happens when he's on a boat full-time with some really attractive girls?"

Aesha had some concerns, explaining, "Scott [Dobson] and I have been together for three-and-a-half years. There's not been one time I've ever been paranoid. So I just think if you're worried about each other, then surely it's not right."
