Below Deck Down Under Season 3 is still airing on Bravo, but that minor detail is not stopping the network from releasing intel on their currently filming Season 4. Based on the one image and explainer statement released, we now know that Daisy Kelliher, Chef Ben Robinson, and the entire cast of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City are all coming on board!
As BDDU Season 3 continues sailing into murky waters, take heart as a (hopefully) brighter Season 4 is underway. From crossovers to returning fan favorites on this newer Below Deck spin-off, fans are excited for Season 4 of BDDU. Let’s break down what Bravo just released.
Daisy Kelliher and Chef Ben Robinson are joining the cast of Below Deck Down Under Season 4
Bravo just did us a solid favor over on Instagram. We will get to the Real Housewives aspect in just a second. But first, look at this image. Immediately, you will see Daisy and Chef Ben standing at the side of Captain Jason Chambers.
Last year, Chef Ben hinted at his interest in returning to this franchise. His wishes have just come true, as Chef Ben is now on the yacht filming for BDDU Season 4. Sadly, this does mean that Tzarina Mace-Ralph is likely out. Unless she presents as his sous-chef, but it feels unlikely.
Chef Ben appeared in Seasons 1 through 4 of Below Deck. He has also starred in Season 1 and then Season 4 of Below Deck Mediterranean. His British wit, sass, and charm make for excellent television. But his skills in the galley set him apart, as almost every dish he puts out, the guests have loved.
We have not seen Chef Ben in ages. Having this man back on our screens in Season 4 of BDDU feels like an early Christmas gift, which we are eager to unwrap. But, can Chef Ben get along with Daisy, who is jumping ship from Below Deck Sailing Yacht to star alongside him on BDDU?
We hope so. Viewers want nothing more than for Daisy to leap and land into a safe and productive filming environment via BDDU.
The entire cast of RHOSLC Season 6 is also coming on board for a Below Deck Down Under Season 4 charter
The last time we saw the ladies of RHOSLC, they were wading through their shifting friendships at the Season 5 reunion. Now, these women are filming on a yacht, blessing our lives with the first crossover of its kind on Bravo. As the network penned on their recent social media reveal, “ALL CREW, ALL CREW… Little Girl!” Mary and her cohorts are now on board. “Below Deck Down Under Season 4 just started filming with a first-ever Real Housewives crossover charter featuring the” entire cast of RHOSLC Season 6, Bravo added, sending viewers to the comments within seconds.
Sure, Heather Gay has already guested on the seemingly defunct series, Below Deck Adventure. But now, she is returning to this franchise with her entire cast, which marks the first full crossover between these two franchises.
While we only see Mary Cosby and Angie Katsanevas in their recent social media post, their words stress that their entire cast is present. The others are likely off lounging somewhere. Or fighting.
Daisy Kelliher’s Below Deck Down Under move likely means Sailing Yacht will receive a cast shakeup
BDSY is entering uncharted waters. Daisy has starred in this series since Season 2. At her side were always two blokes, but in Season 4, a love triangle blew this longstanding friends group up. After this storyline sank our sails, Colin MacRae exited filming ahead of Season 5.
His exit saw Daisy and Gary King struggling to make peace in Season 5. But this storyline was the least of their problems. As headlines continued mounting against Gary, threatening the future of BDSY, producers had no choice but to edit Gary out of certain scenes. What used to be a favorite Below Deck spin-off is now dragging its anchor across Bravo, as fans are growing weary of the toxic norms that have infiltrated this series.
While Daisy has never claimed to be perfect, her leader, Captain Glenn Shephard, often sided with Gary. His “subconsciously” motivated decisions sometimes made this series even more difficult to digest. Moving forward, the only thing that could save this series is a reboot, which would have left Daisy out to sea on Bravo.
But now, Daisy has seemingly found her life raft. With a new home away from home on BDDU, BDSY is far likelier to receive a much-needed cast shakeup.
