‘Below Deck’ Hints at Another Major Cast Exit After [Spoiler] Is Fired

Below Deck Down Under just lost Mike Durrant — and it doesn’t look like the cast exits stop there.

During the sneak peek for the Monday, May 18, episode of the hit Bravo series, Captain Jason Chambers appears to be fed up with Jenna Woudberg‘s love triangle with Ben Robinson and Eddy Hounsell. The trio are at odds before Jason steps in to fix the ongoing conflict aboard the Katina.

“I have a second stew that created a s***storm,” he tells Daisy Kelliher. “Something has got to change.”

Jenna is then asked to “speak” with Jason and her future on the show remains unclear. Her potential exit would come after Mike was fired for not contributing enough in the interior, which allowed Barbie Pascual to return to the franchise.

Every Star Fired From ‘Below Deck’ Through the Years

“It was a long time coming and a lot of my behavior was unacceptable,” Mike exclusively told Us Weekly earlier this month about his departure. “I feel like this was probably just the icing on the cake. When I had back chatted to Daisy — especially since she is someone who is a superior — and I never meant it in a disrespectful manner.”

Mike said he knew there “wasn’t any chance of winning the job back.”

“I was out of luck. For me, I was actually more disappointed. I hadn’t just let myself down, I had also let everyone else down. I was actually upset about how things went down,” he continued. “I was just having fun and I didn’t mean any harm by it and I was just enjoying the ride. Then it reality hit — and the crew were a man down when they obviously had to put the extra effort in.”

The deckhand and stew went on to defend the comment he made to Alesia Harris about not doing anything wrong.

“We had this banter where we would go back and forth with each other. I would wind Alesia up. I wasn’t playing dumb,” he clarified. “I knew deep down that I had made a mistake — as well as various other mistakes. Looking back now, I hold accountability of what I did and for me it’s more I have to learn from that. I have to learn where I went wrong and not let anyone down again. Now is just learning from those mistakes and moving forward — and understanding where I went wrong.”

At the time, Mike wanted to clarify a misconception viewers may have about him, saying, “I had obviously seen a lot of comments about me having issues with the women onboard. Something I wanted to clear up is if it had been a male chief stew and male stews, I would have been exactly the same. It was more about the department rather than about who I was working with. I didn’t enjoy working in that department and I was 90 percent working in that department.”

Below Deck Down Under airs on Bravo Mondays at 8 p.m. ET. New episodes stream the next day on Peacock.
