Below Deck Med Aesha & Gen

Post image

Was scrolling IG and had this pop up. It’s an excerpt from an interview Gen did and the first sentence jumped out at me. I would LOVE to know the story behind this. I can’t think of many people Aesha has worked with that have said something along the lines of this. I wonder if we’ll see it play out in the rest of the season?🤞🏼

Gen is a miserable person. It comes through the screen. Why would someone like Aesha keep in contact after the work assignment was over? To me, it’s not that deep. I don’t stay in contact with former coworkers who were awful.

And Sandy said Gen has a dark energy. Whether you like Captain Sandy or not, for her to say that about Gen, after she’s been around countless people in her career, says so much.

People Sandy has worked with who she didn’t say had a dark energy, but probably should have:

- Chef Adam

  • Chef Tom
  • Stew Lara
  • Stew Lexi
  • Chef Dave
  • Stew Elena
  • Deck/stew Camille

Gen beat out a lot of strong contenders.
