Captain Lee Rosbach made a stunning confession about his health during Below Deck's Season 10 premiere, but now, he's reassuring fans that all is well.
The stud of the sea took to Twitter on Tuesday, November 22, responding to a fan who was emotional after watching the new episode. "I really hope your health is good," the fan added, to which Captain Lee responded, "I'm doing well, thanks for asking, appreciate you."
He initially opened up about his health issues during a staff meeting on the premiere. "I am a little incapacitated," Captain Lee told the crew. "I have a nerve issue on my left side so I am going to depend on you guys in some areas."
Captain Lee also revealed that he had back surgery before filming for Season 10 started. Thankfully, "the worst is behind me now," he said, and the doctors have assured me that I’m just going to continue to get better."
His response to that? "Well, I’m going to work!"
Fans will see where his journey takes him next. An extended sneak peek of Season 10 aired after Below Deck's premiere shows Captain Lee with a cane and telling the crew, "My mind's there, my heart's there, my body just won't cooperate. So I've made a decision."
Thankfully, all that matters is he's doing well today.
