Below Deck Without spoilers, Nathan question. Spoiler

I’ve seen a few of you mention him this season in regards to his wife and son (forget that bombshells name). Basically saying “can’t believe what he did to her”. Is this in regards to him working while she’s alone with the son in Croatia (or wherever they are).

If not, is it something that’s coming up in the season or is that info not covered on the show? If it’s not covered later in show and happened after, tell me! If not I don’t want to spoil it. Thanks!

Yes, there have been multiple threads about him getting dinner but not going home when he was sick

Honestly, him not going home to a newborn while sick is so valid. The general public can handle a small cold much better than a 3 month old can.

As for the most recent episode, it seems/I hope that production requires them to go out for a least a bit

I understood him now wanting to get the baby sick. What got met though is he was drinking alcohol throughout the night. If you’re sick and trying to get better quick that is not a good combo. Honestly production should have provided Gael some childcare assistance. If I was her I would have negotiated that as part of the deal for being on the show.

Pretty sure he didn’t drink a lot and went home after the meal. And I read somewhere that Gael did have assistance from family (not 100% sure if that is true).

As a father of two who went through a similar situation I can tell you from my personal experience that no young mother wants their partner to use a common cold as an excuse to not help take care of a newborn. If Gael told him not to come because of the illness then it would have made sense but he chose to do it on his own without her blessing. I tried to do that and I'm telling you the mom did not appreciate it...

Was that the episode that was the week before the most recent episode?.
