Among Below Deck Mediterranean Season 9’s juiciest pieces of drama is the relationship between Elena Dubaich and Bri Muller. As second stew, Elena made her charter experience clear, even back in Below Deck Med’s seventh season.
Bri, on the other hand, lacked plenty of know-how. Ellie told us that “Bri’s lack of experience was glaringly obvious.” She acknowledged that Bri had only worked on boats for two years, and on generally smaller vessels.
Unfortunately, things weren’t all smooth sailing for the mentor and mentee, as Joe Bradley would come between them. And whatever the reason – Joe, experience, frustration – Ellie apparently left with a bad taste in her mouth over Bri.
Below Deck Med drama: Bri pokes fun at Elena’s “fake boobs,” but gives credit where it’s due
Recently, Bri appeared on Watch What Happens Live. While there, Andy Cohen asked, “What’s one way Ellie could improve as a second stew?” Bri responded, “I’ll give it to Ellie. She micromanaged me in the beginning but that’s what I needed in the beginning.” Andy seemed to agree, saying Bri improved as the episodes went on, gaining more experience.
“It does help to do something [in] a way the person above you likes doing things,” Bri said. As for whether Ellie could soon be a chief stew, Bri thought it over for a moment. “Trial by fire. For sure. Like, give her the chance.” Andy then asked Bri to rate Ellie’s “sultry Instagram page” on a scale of “cringe” to “hot, hot, hot.”
“Ooh, well, I’m blocked from that, so, I wouldn’t [know],” Bri responded coyly. Andy (seemingly in jest) asked if Bri subscribed to Ellie’s OnlyFans, to which Bri gave an obvious, “No.” Bri then slammed Ellie’s “fake boobs,” saying it was the one thing Ellie had that Bri didn’t that might appeal to Joe.
Below Deck Mediterranean continues Mondays at 9/8c on Bravo.
