Share and Follow

Captain Jason Chambers and his crew have departed the Katina for Below Deck Down Under Season 3. It was yet another charter season filled with shocking firings, heads of departments clashing, and plenty of boatmances. Despite the turbulence, every crew member walked away with valuable experience, leaving fans hopeful to see some familiar faces return for another unforgettable charter season.

Fans usually expect a reunion after a Bravo series has concluded. These reunions allow viewers to learn what happened to the crew months after filming wrapped. What has occurred between Lara Rigby and Tzarina Mace-Ralph after a rocky relationship? Are Harry Van Vliet and Brianna Duffield continuing a romance off the boat?

Sadly, we won’t get a Season 3 reunion, but there’s a reason why.

Why There Isn’t A Below Deck Down Under Season 3 Reunion

Below Deck Down Under Season 3 concluded on May 26th, with its finale episode, titled, “Never Can Sey’ Goodbye.” In the finale, we see the Katina crew working their last charter and having one more night out the town before they pack their things and say farewell.

The episode concluded with plenty of questions fans hoped would be answered at a reunion special. Have Lara Rigby and Tzarina Mace-Ralph made peace with one another after a challenging season? What about all the boatmances this year? Did Harry Van Vliet and Brianna Duffield continue their romance once they left the Katina? What’s the current status of Marina Marcondes and Nicolas Cattelan, as they walked away hand-in-hand on their next adventure?

Sadly, fans won’t get any of these answers. Not unless these reality TV stars take to their social media accounts to answer them themselves. Yet again, another Below Deck season is left without a reunion.

The most recent Below Deck reunion special aired in 2023, following Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 4.

It’s been common to see a Below Deck franchise not get a reunion. According to Parade, this particular Bravo series has chosen not to go forward with reunions because of these yachties hectic schedules. After the show concludes, many of these reality TV stars continue working on mega yachts and smaller vessels all over the world, which would make it difficult to get everyone all in one place. In fact, even getting them together for a video call is just as difficult.

Bravo

Before Season 3 concluded, Harry Van Vliet—who was promoted from deckhand to lead deckhand this season—hinted that fans might still have something to look forward to, even in the absence of an official reunion.

On Instagram, Harry shared a series of photos of the Season 3 crew and their fun-filled experiences while chartering the Seychelles. In a lengthy caption, he said that there is “something in the works” with regard to getting all the cast together so fans can get the much-needed updates they so desperately need.

“T-minus 24 hours until this season of Below Deck Down Under will be over! I hope you are as excited as me to watch the finale and have enjoyed the season as a whole as much as me,” he began his caption.

“By the way, there may not be an official bravo reunion however keep your eyes peeled we have something in the works! So write your questions down and some of the crew will be happy to answer really soon! 🫶🏼🥰”

Looking at Harry’s comment section, most of his fans really wanted to know the status of his relationship with stewardess Brianna. The two flirted throughout their time on the Katina and made things official before they left the megayacht.

In a May 29th Instagram post, Harry answered his fans’ most burning question. Harry shared several photos with Bri from their extensive travels together after the show, including stops in South Africa, Nashville, and Europe. However, he has since announced that they are no longer dating.

“The question everyone has been asking, are Bri and I still together? The answer is no, we broke up a few months after filming ended.”

He continued, “Once filming wrapped we planned to travel as much as we could and we did! Visiting Africa, the Middle East, the US, Europe and even SE Asia! We had a blast but inevitably we had to go back to work which meant doing long distance which took a toll on the relationship and lead to us breaking up.”

“We have no hard feelings towards each other and I still consider her a friend of mine and wish her nothing but the best.​​​​​​,” he ended his statement.

Before Season 3 wrapped, Bravo announced that Captain Jason would return for another season. In fact, an Instagram post shared that not only was Jason going to be back at the helm but two fan-favorites from the franchise would also be joining him.

A photo showed Jason standing alongside fan-favorite Below Deck chef Ben Robinson and Below Deck Sailing Yacht chief stew Daisy Kelliher. Additionally, the crew were posing with The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’s Mary Cosby and Angie Katsenevas, confirming the Bravo crossover that fans have been waiting for.

The post was captioned:

“ALL CREW, ALL CREW… Little Girl! 🚨Below Deck Down Under Season 4 just started filming with a first-ever Real Housewives crossover charter featuring the full cast of #RHOSLC ❄️ Captain Jason has enlisted the help of some familiar faces for the upcoming season…Daisy as Chief Stew and Chef Ben! 🛥️

While the show is currently filming its fourth season, and will likely air at the end of the year or start of 2026, fans don’t have to wait long to watch another Below Deck series. The original Below Deck is returning for a twelfth season and will air on June 2. Captain Kerry Titheradge, who is known for Below Deck Adventure, will be at the helm of the St. David. The season will also see the return of two familiar faces: Fraser Olender as chief stew and Kyle Stillie in the deckhand position.
