Below Deck Sailing Yacht: Daisy Kelliher defends Gary King over Colin MacRae return rumours

Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 has featured an interesting shift in the relationship between Daisy Kelliher and Gary King, which has further clued viewers into their dynamic. Daisy, who has worked as the Chief Stew aboard Parsifal III since Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 2, has known First Officer Gary for just as long. While the pair have been working together for years, their interpersonal relationship has shifted tremendously since they’ve been colleagues. Daisy and Gary were initially part of a trio that included former Chief Engineer Colin MacRae, but things changed after Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 4.

With Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 featuring more of Daisy than ever before, there has been a lot of interaction that viewers haven’t seen in the past between Daisy and Gary. Though the pair were originally on decent terms after Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 4, when the reunion for the season filmed and both got heated regarding their dynamic throughout the season, their relationship suffered. While Daisy was upset with the way Gary spoke to and about her during the reunion, Gary wasn’t happy with the way Daisy behaved, either. Moving into the current season, they were tense.

Daisy Remained Supportive Of Gary After The Misconduct Allegations

She Didn’t Abandon Her Friendship With Gary

Although Daisy and Gary struggled in their friendship at the beginning of Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5, it seems that the pair will eventually patch things up as the charter season continues. With Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 having filmed over a year ago, things have evolved in the time since the season finished shooting, especially when it comes to Gary’s reputation. During the filming season last year, allegations of sexual misconduct came out about Gary, who was accused of being sexually violent with a Below Deck franchise makeup artist.

While Daisy and the rest of the cast have yet to publicly speak on the allegations, her relationship with Gary appears to be solid, as both have posted each other on social media. Gary shared a post in recent months that featured current photos of himself and Daisy, making it clear that despite the very serious allegations of sexual misconduct lodged against him, she’s still a friend of Gary’s. Daisy has always been more forgiving of Gary than people expect, so this isn’t necessarily surprising for their relationship.

Daisy Forgives Gary Too Easily

She Doesn’t Hold Him Accountable

Daisy has always been forgiving of Gary, seemingly because she feels she knows his true nature better than others. While Gary is typically flippant and overly casual in the way he acts with Daisy and other women aboard Parsifal III, she tends to let things go more easily than others. Daisy may not want to be the person who has to go against Gary, but to Below Deck Sailing Yacht viewers, it seems more like she doesn’t want to hold him accountable for his actions. Though it’s not clear why Daisy always forgives Gary, it’s something viewers can bank on.
