Below Deck Down Under Season 2: Drama and Romance Await!
The highly anticipated second season of Below Deck Down Under is set to make waves with its exciting mix of drama and romance, kicking off with what can only be described as a “love pentagon.” In an exclusive interview with Captain Jason and Aesha Scott, the duo revealed their initial reactions upon discovering the interconnected relationships among the crew members onboard.
Captain Jason emphasized that as long as the personal dynamics do not interfere with work, he does not intervene. He believes that as long as consenting adults are enjoying their time and adhering to the rules, which include the inevitable heartbreaks that may occur, the work environment can remain harmonious. Aesha echoed this sentiment, explaining that as long as her colleagues are punctual for their shifts, she is unconcerned about how they spend their free time.
In the trailer for the upcoming season, Aesha hinted at the complications that arise as the crew members grew closer to one another. As the chief stew, she diligently monitored her interior team to ensure their personal lives did not impact their professional responsibilities. Aesha remarked on the strange phenomenon that occurs when one is isolated from the outside world for weeks on end, noting how perspectives can drastically change when surrounded only by the crew. She humorously described the experience of initially perceiving someone as a “three at best” but soon finding themselves completely smitten. However, once off the boat, the perception swiftly reverts back, leaving one questioning their choices.
Although Aesha did not succumb to the temptation of pursuing a fellow cast member, she remained committed to her long-distance relationship with Scott Dobson. Aesha emphasized the importance of trust in a relationship and how it allows both partners to focus on their respective endeavors. Filming the show became an immersive experience for Aesha, where she could wholeheartedly invest her energy without worrying about her boyfriend. Knowing he would be waiting to congratulate her upon completion of the season brought her immense gratitude and contentment.
As for Captain Jason, he currently finds himself unattached but open to the possibility of meeting someone special. With his daughter settled in school and becoming more independent, he believes it is time to prioritize his own needs and potentially find companionship in the coming year.
