Below Deck Mediterranean<\/em><\/a> caught a heated fight between Nathan Gallagher<\/strong> and Joe Bradley<\/strong> \u2014 with Gael Cameron<\/strong> present \u2014 before the bosun\u2019s arrest for domestic violence.<\/p>\n

During the Monday, September 21, episode of the hit Bravo series, Nathan planned a night out with Gael, which included a dinner with the rest of the crew. Joe was nervous about spending time with both of them after an offscreen falling out.<\/p>\n

The lead deckhand largely avoided Nathan and Gael until the car ride home. After Gael tried to address the awkward tension between her and Joe, the situation escalated and Nathan got involved. The duo started to butt heads as a \u201cTo Be Continued\u201d message flashed on screen.<\/p>\n

Season 11 of Below Deck Med<\/em>, which is currently airing, showed viewers how Nathan and Gael navigated parenthood after welcoming son Kayden in June 2025. Off screen, however, news broke last month that Nathan was arrested on domestic violence charges in Australia in December 2025 after an alleged incident<\/a> with an unidentified 29-year-old woman.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tViewers have had a front row seat to some of the biggest reality TV feuds since the Below Deck franchise debuted. The show\u2019s spinoff series Below Deck Mediterranean shocked viewers when Hannah Ferrier and Captain Sandy Yawn\u2018s inability to see eye to eye turned into the most memorable firing to date. Since the captain joined [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

According to a police report viewed by Us<\/em>, Nathan was charged with \u201cassault occasioning actual bodily harm, intentionally chok[ing] a person without consent and common assault.\u201d<\/p>\n

The police memo revealed that Nathan was eventually granted<\/a> conditional bail. He was later convicted on three counts of domestic violence after failing to appear in court.<\/p>\n

Us<\/em> also confirmed that Nathan is the subject of an Apprehended Violence Application that was filed on behalf of Gael in New South Wales. (An AVO is a legal order requested from a court to protect a person from someone who makes them fear violence, intimidation, harassment or stalking that is widely used in Australia, per NSW Government\u2019s official website.)<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not claiming I was perfect. I wasn\u2019t. I made mistakes, and I will take responsibility for my own actions,\u201d Nathan told Rolling Stone in an August statement. \u201cI will not accept being portrayed solely through one account of a relationship when there is another side and evidence relating to it. I have contemporaneous video footage from the night in question, as well as messages and other records, which I believe provide important context.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nathan also confirmed his breakup from Gael at the time.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are also other matters surrounding the relationship that I have never discussed publicly,\u201d he claimed. \u201cMy priority is being recognized as his father, establishing a relationship with him and ultimately finding a way for both of us to move forward and coparent peacefully.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gael, for her part, released a statement<\/a> addressing the situation.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tAs soon as you step foot on a Below Deck Mediterranean charter yacht, you\u2019re guaranteed one thing: a whole lot of drama. Throughout its Bravo run, crew members like Captain Sandy Yawn, Hannah Ferrier, Malia White and more have been know to butt heads with each other \u2014 all with the purpose of delivering a [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cHey guys, I just want to say thank you so much for the support you\u2019ve shown for Kayden and I,\u201d she wrote via her Instagram Stories in September. \u201cIt\u2019s been a tough season, but I have been using the past few months to quietly heal and rebuild for little man and myself. I really appreciate the love you have sent our way, especially while everything that\u2019s come to light, and I\u2019m really working on finding myself again and moving forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

Us<\/em> has since confirmed that Bravo fired Nathan in light of his domestic violence arrest.<\/a><\/p>\n
