Daisy Kelliher has been dishing on the tension that erupted between him and his co-star Gary king after he hooked up with the chief engineer Colin Macrae during the fourth season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht.
Daisy and Gary have continued a light flirtation since season three after they shared a steamy makeout session in the boat’s hot tub. The pair have been traveling together several times on social media, but they insist they are just friends.
However, that didn’t stop Gary from becoming “heartbroken” and “jealous”, making Daisy frustrated.
“I think Gary is convinced he wants me, but I think it’s more egotistical because I lean more towards Colin,” Daisy told Page Six. “Why does he care? He has been coming and asking for me for three years, and never. So, like, f**k.
Daisy explained that she felt put in the middle of the trio’s love triangle and began to feel like she was being treated as a prize to be won in the competition.
“Me too – I think I don’t agree with this – but sometimes I feel like a trophy, and a little ego, and like, you know, the guy who got the girl. ,” said Daisy.
The main stew continued by explaining that the tension between her, Gary, and Colin became more apparent as the season progressed, and that they found it “difficult to navigate.” At one point, Gary accuses Daisy of hooking up with Colin “no matter what.”
“I’m 100 percent not moving around spitefully hooking up unless you do something really malicious,” Daisy told the outlet.
Daisy plays coy when asked where she stands today with Gary, but Gary has not been so tight-lipped.
Speaking to E! News, Gary explained that he felt he and Daisy had “always had chemistry,” and seeing her with Colin “surprised” him, leading to his outburst of jealousy.
“I’d be lying to you if I said I wasn’t jealous,” Gary said. “But at the end of the day, he’s not my boyfriend, Colin’s not my boyfriend, so I’m going to support him. That’s the least I can do as a friend.”
After the initial shock wears off, Gary says he will accept Daisy and Colin’s romance.
“No doubt, he is a good friend and I will support him as much as possible,” he said. “I think they make a super cute couple, so we’ll see what happens in the future.”
Luckily for Gary, he had a small distraction in the form of a junior stew Madison “Mads” Herrera.
“Madison and I have a little winter fling,” Gary confessed. “Boatmances, it just happens on every yacht. It’s something we can’t hide from whether we want to or not. I think if you spend enough time with people, you will get a connection with them and develop feelings.
Below Deck Sailing Yacht season four airs Friday nights at 8 pm EST on Bravo.
