Daisy Kelliher will soon be returning to the screen when Season 5 of Below Deck Sailing Yacht premieres on Monday, October 7, but it's been a while since viewers last caught up with her.

Ahead of the Season 5 premiere, Daisy chatted exclusively with The Daily Dish about the latest in her world — from her dating life to her egg freezing journey.

When asked what she's been up to, Daisy admitted, "Not much."

"God, what have I been doing? That's a scary question. I have not progressed in life at all," she teased before laughing. "I have not bought a house, I haven't gotten a new job, I've done nothing — quite brilliant! But a lot of traveling, you know. A lot of fun stuff. And, yeah, mainly traveling."

Daisy has been a mainstay on board Parsifal III for years now, but she still takes chief stew positions here and there. 

"I'll temp when I can, but it's hard because temping is so last minute, so I'm usually not that last minute," the London-based stew said. "But yeah, if I ever get a chance to get on a boat, I definitely take that still."

Is Daisy Kelliher dating anyone?

The Ireland native, who dated Colin MacRae after Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 4, is single. 

"No, never dating anyone," Daisy told The Daily Dish about the latest in her personal life. "It lasts a hot minute and then explodes in my face."

Daisy Kelliher's fertility journey

In early September, Daisy began the process of freezing her eggs for the second time. She shared why she wanted to publicize the egg retrieval while speaking to The Daily Dish.

"I have obviously reached an age where I'm still single, and, you know, science has allowed us to have options, and one of those is egg freezing. I'm not trying to have a baby, I'm not guaranteeing that I'm going to use these or anything like that — I never actually wanted children 'til I was older, anyway — but it's nice to be able to have these as a backup plan," she explained. "And it's not guaranteed, but they're there to use if I wish."

Daisy froze her eggs for the first time in November 2023, and she confirmed that three viable eggs were retrieved the second time around. She detailed the ups and downs of the entire process on social media. 

 

"I just thought it was important to share my story, because I'd done a cycle previously, and I just had so many people asking questions and looking for information, so I saw an opportunity to be able to share something that was informative, Like, it's it's easy to share your life and be like, 'Oh, I'm on this amazing beach and I'm drinking this great drink,' or 'I've got this great beauty product,' but, it's nice when you're able to share something actually really informative and comforting to lots of other people," Daisy continued. "So yeah, I saw the opportunity, and I'm an open book. I did reality TV for four years. So I was like, why not share this?"
