Below Deck’s Ben Willoughby and Sunny Marquis Confirm Relationship After Filming

A Below Deck miracle has occurred! Bosun Ben Willoughby and lead deckhand Sunny Marquis beat the odds of the dreaded boatmance and are still going strong after their charter season ended. Their relationship had more ups and downs than a super yacht bobbing through rough seas. However, the two are still together and Ben shared a message to announce the big news.

Ben and Sunny prove everyone wrong

Out of all the boatmance’s this season, one probably wouldn’t have predicted that Ben and Sunny would be a couple after filming ended. My money would have been on Barbie Pascual and Kyle Stillie. They were friends first before taking it to the next level. And once they committed, they were inseparable. However, Ben and Sunny were a different story.

Sunny caught feelings quickly for Ben, but Ben was touch and go. One minute he acted like they were a couple, and then the next he informed Sunny they were just sleeping together. Ben even called his ex boatmance from last season, Camille Lamb, to try and rekindle their flame. One would think Sunny was over the drama, but she settled for a fling

So, it was quite the surprise when Ben took to Instagram to announce he was still together with Sunny. Ben wrote, “Yes you guessed it, we are still together!” Did anyone really guess that? He continued, “Finally we can let go of the secrecy that has been held for the past 15 months.” The fact that they are still together for over a year has to mean something. 

Ben added, “We want to thank you all for the support throughout season 11 @belowdeckbravo it’s been a rollercoaster to relive the season and the beginning of a relationship. We ended up traveling the globe together last year and Sunny made her way to Australia for Christmas. Anyways, hoping you all enjoyed the season.” Ok, this sounds serious!

Do we have a new and improved Ben and Sunny? It will be interesting to see their relationship dynamic if they both come back next season. And I for one am looking forward to it.

Below Deck, Season 11 is now streaming on Peacock.

TELL US – ARE YOU SURPRISED BEN AND SUNNY ARE STILL TOGETHER? DO YOU HOPE THEY BOTH RETURN NEXT SEASON?
