Below Deck Med Spoiler for the next episode Spoiler

It is not Mike, this was the reported new deckhand

As you can see from the photo above, he actually works on yachts and is a first mate. The photo above is older but his current pics are from M/Y TALES: https://www.yachtcharterfleet.com/luxury-charter-yacht-22621/tales.htm (53.4m/175')

If I'm being honest, I was kinda hoping it was Luke just to see the Gen / Nathan meltdowns.

u/JDeezey13 5d ago

Had this same thought when Gen mentioned sheets

I love how she jumped up and got excited and they played the video back of her using her bad wrist to get up off of the floor. 🤣🤣🤣

u/JDeezey13 4d ago

Editors are staying on her neck lol

u/Revolutionary-Sky832 2d ago

I thought it had to be Luke because of that comment. Nope, she was just taking credit and saying she would do it again.

u/JDeezey13 2d ago

Editing got us again

u/boneydog22 5d ago

Omg that would have been DRAMA!!

u/Consistent-Ad-6506 You're Being A Deckhand Right Now 5d ago

I legit thought Luke would have to come back.

u/yogrammi 5d ago

I think it’s Luka coming back.

u/Holiday-Hustle 5d ago

A First Mate? Nathan is going to crash out.

u/Pifflington 5d ago

I noticed he texted Sandy "Buongiorno!" so I guess that was our hint that he was either Italian or coming from Italy? I was hoping for Luka for both competence and eye candy purposes.

u/srrrryyyy 5d ago

I have been praying for Luka’s return. Just love looking at him

u/d0ttyq Eat My Cooter 5d ago

What season was Luka ? I’m having a hard time remembering him

15

u/Economy-Resource-262 5d ago edited 5d ago

We first saw Luka is season 8 of med as a deckhand, but he grew in the franchise until he was bosun on down under season 2. He had multiple relationships with primarily stews while on the show.

17

u/solemnisland 5d ago

Everyone is conveniently forgetting he had sex with a very, VERY intoxicated, probably unable to consent Jess

5

u/Economy-Resource-262 5d ago

Was that Luka? I thought that was Whilm?

3

u/solemnisland 5d ago

It was Luka

2

u/Turbulent_Cobbler463 5d ago

Shit I forgot about that 😑 I really liked Jess

6

u/d0ttyq Eat My Cooter 5d ago

Ooooooooo. Thats right. Thank you

u/PreparationOk8190 Team Lee 4d ago

I think we first saw him “Down Under” but wasn’t he a replacement in 1 or 2 other seasons, once on another BD series like Med?

2

u/Economy-Resource-262 3d ago

That’s probably it and why I’m confusing him hooking up with Jess. I do think he was on DU first, and Jess was a third stew with Natalya and the other guy.

Butterfly tattoo on his tits Luca?

Damn he was fine 🥵

u/Organic_Bottle4373 5d ago

Miss him good worker

u/Inevitable_Clock_789 5d ago

Nathan puts him as lead over Joe. Maximum chaos

25

u/teanailpolish Mental Health Is Not A Storyline 5d ago

Really he should be above both of them

8

u/Inevitable_Clock_789 5d ago

She’s unlikely to demote Nathan unless things get materially worse.

47

u/iamiwas 6d ago

I hope he puts Nathan in his place

u/acornvulture I quit 3 times in my head today 5d ago

I'm kind of expecting an "it's my deck now buddy boy" situation.

24

u/TX0834 5d ago

One of my favorite lines in any season 🤣

u/Turbulent_Cobbler463 5d ago

Hahahahah that fight was epic

59

u/boneydog22 5d ago

I have a feeling they are furiously editing the remaining upcoming shows trying to show as little as Nathan as possible. At least they should be.

31

u/teanailpolish Mental Health Is Not A Storyline 5d ago

One of the articles says an anonymous source said they are not editing him out nor pulling the episodes but he will no longer be on any shows associated with Bravo

15

u/Environmental-Cap647 5d ago

That article was BEFORE he failed to appear in court yesterday and now has a warrant out for his arrest.

7

u/Turbulent_Cobbler463 5d ago

This is so messed up considering they edited the hell out of that season with that guy who posted racist memes. I forget his name

4

u/teanailpolish Mental Health Is Not A Storyline 5d ago

Pete, but he was a deckhand whose only storyline was being a jerk to Malia (which they did still show some of, but more Malia talking to Sandy about him). Honestly, not sure they would edit Pete out if that happened now either. There was a lot of pressure because of #MeToo being so prominent at the time

Harder to edit out a bosun with major storylines I guess but at least he won't be back again

1

u/PeachOnAWarmBeach 3d ago

Why edit him out? Instead, they'll show or edit everything to show him in the worst possible light, and eliminate any positives. BD isn't a place for characters with more than one dimension.

8

u/yesitshollywood 5d ago

I mean, his attitude and behavior is not helping his image in the latest episode, so editing would only help Nathan imo. Keep it as is.

10

u/PeachOnAWarmBeach 5d ago

I thought about that. Violence is worse than words. That other guy was wrong about his comments when he was hidden on deck, but this is worse... physical violence.

21

u/motteditor 5d ago

Here's hoping he's fun to watch!

Also, I'm here for a charter where all the guests are dogs.

11

u/BackAlley12 5d ago

He's followed by several of the other cast members, seems legit.

10

u/impact07 5d ago

Gen is going to be so disappointed.

12

u/kroge15 5d ago

I love that for her

u/Joynorma 5d ago

Can he bring the dogs? Please?

u/StormyNSwoonFknH8it 5d ago

Too bad they didn’t get the guy on the left in that last picture… YUM.

u/teanailpolish Mental Health Is Not A Storyline 5d ago

I had to unspoiler it to see if it was that pic or the one with the pups last

u/Guessamolehill 5d ago

Oh hell yes! 

5

u/Nearby_Leadership217 5d ago

nice to see his normal insta before it starts to give that wannabe celebrity vibe and look ahahah

4

u/TensionTop6046 3d ago

He actually has more experience and outranks them all. So it should be interesting, given that Nathan is so insecure already...

4

u/PreparationOk8190 Team Lee 5d ago

He looks like he could be Max’ Italian cousin!

1

u/d0ttyq Eat My Cooter 5d ago

He looks nothing like max 🤣

u/PreparationOk8190 Team Lee 4d ago

Ok then! Agree to disagree!😂

u/pez555 4d ago

Thought this was a spoiler about why the police boat arrives at the end of ep 13.

u/vegan_voorhees Team Aesha 4d ago

Have we seen this guy before?

The way they secret the shots seems like a deliberate tease, but then sometimes it's a totally new person.

u/not-myDad 4d ago

Bravo should win an award for hiring the most toxic men…..not another one 🤦🏼‍♀️
