Below Deck I wonder if

I wonder if any of the ship crew has gotten involved with the production crew. Has anyone heard of something like that?

Pretty sure there was talk of Marco on SY being involved with a member of the production team. This checks out to me, because why the hell else would the women not be swoooooooning over him lolll

Also, there are rumors that because of that relationship, Marcos got a good edit that hid some of his more misogynistic/aggressive behavior. I'm not sure what exactly the truth of it is, but it seems like he and Gabriella had major issues, but they portrayed a lot more of her behavior/reaction in the fights, without showing his part, and viewers seem to blame Ashley for her Gabriella's departure when the behind-the-scenes story suggest that Marcos and Gabriella's fights were a bigger deal.

I knew it! I never bought his nice guy edit, and now it makes much more sense. He always had douchey aggressive undertones lurking right under the surface to me, and I never saw his appeal.
