The Daily Dish Below Deck Mediterranean After Show

Gael and Nathan Open Up About Taking Their Relationship Off the Yacht: “In Too Deep”

Gael Cameron and Nathan Gallagher share new details about their budding romance on the Below Deck Mediterranean After Show. 

By Abby Feiner

Following Gael Cameron and Nathan Gallagher's first official date on Below Deck Mediterranean Season 9, Episode 12, the Mustique yachties are now sharing new details about taking their budding boatmance to the next level.

in the Below Deck Mediterranean After Show video above, Nathan explained that although he wanted to do something fun with Gael away from their fellow yachties, he immediately had some regrets about asking her to go rock climbing. 

"I am sh-t scared of heights," he said in the clip. Still, he noted, "It was nice to get off the boat and interact away from the boat in a different setting."

Gael, who had recently broken up with her boyfriend, appreciated Nathan's suggestion to do a fun activity together.

"He knew I was in a tough place, and so he said to me, 'I think you just need to get off the boat,'" she shared.

Once they were on the date, however, Gael began to think about the deeper meaning behind their outing. 

"It was scary because it was just like, 'Oh sh-t, I'm in too deep now, but this is a real thing,'" she explained. "'Is it bad that I'm kind of happy about it? Is it moving too fast?'"

"Yes, I wanted to go," Gael continued. "But, internally, I was still just out of a relationship and I'm like, 'Wow this is moving really fast.'"

Given how her relationship with Nathan developed, Gael also admitted, "This will be really sh-t for my ex to watch ...There's no coming back from this." 

Following the date, Gael seemed to be more at ease. As she stated in a confessional interview during the August 19 episode, "Right now I'm like, 'Yeah, f-ck it. Screw it. I'm gonna do stuff that makes me happy.' It's nice and I like him ... Oh, did I just say that?" 

Looking back now, Gael "wasn't surprised" that the date went well.

"Me and Nathan get along and we have a lot of fun together," she said in the video above. "It couldn't have gone bad."
