But as we've seen on past seasons of Below Deck, it's not always easy to maintain a relationship while you're out at sea away from your significant other. That's something that Nico said he definitely experienced during Season 5 of Below Deck. "Yeah, when you're out on charter and you obviously have a relationship back home, it gets very difficult. I'm so busy sometimes that I can't even stop and make a text or call. Obviously, I don't want the other guys on their phones, so I can't sit there and be a hypocrite," Nico recently told The Daily Dish. "So it's a struggle, and it's difficult in general to have a girlfriend in yachting, let alone be on charter for as long as we are back-to-back, try and handle having a girlfriend while dealing with emotional stress while dealing with a green crew, there's just so much that goes into it."

So did Nico and Melissa's relationship survive the season? The Below Deck yachtie has a big update about what happened with his relationship after he returned to land. Find out Nico's news in the video, above. 

Nico's crew member Chris Brown also shared an interesting tidbit about his love life during Tuesday night's episode of Below Deck. Hear all about it, below.
