Below Deck's Eddie Lucas Has a New Look

The Below Deck bosun is almost unrecognizable with his new beard.

Not every New Year's Eve celebration calls for lavish decorations and glittering, red carpet-ready looks — just ask Below Deck's Eddie Lucas. The bosun, like many of us, rang in 2021 in comfy and casual fashion. But he did manage to make followers do a double take when he showed off a different side of himself. 

How to Watch

"Happy new year you FILTHY ANIMALS," Eddie joked on his Instagram Stories with a classic Home Alone reference for his at-home NYE festivities. The Baltimore-based bosun fittingly rocked an Under Armour, navy shirt with a classic, green tee and a knit ski hat indoors — because, why not? But it wasn't his laidback outfit or glittering glasses that got our attention...it was his facial hair. 

Clean cut Eddie, who usually goes sans scruff for his time on deck, sported a fuller beard and mustache that covered the majority of his face. According to his Instagram, it appears Eddie's been rocking this new look for a little while now. Still, the rough and rugged appearance (perhaps aided by those aforementioned glasses) made him virtually unrecognizable. 

Even after our champagne goggles have worn off, we are kind of feeling this new Eddie.
