Things got messy on Monday night’s (April 7) episode of Below Deck Down Under — and chief stew Lara Rigby was there in the Bravo Clubhouse after the episode aired to weigh in on everything that happened.

In case you missed it, sous chef Alesia Harris accidentally got into bosun Wihan Du Toit’s bed thinking he was deckhand Johnny Arvanitis after a night out with the crew. She only realized it wasn’t Arvanitis when he walked into the room. Things ended on a violent note when Arvanitis punched the wall of his and Du Toit’s cabin.

On Watch What Happens Live, Rigby confirmed that Harris was indeed drunk when she mistakenly crawled into Du Toit’s bed, though she couldn’t understand why the sous chef would get into the top bunk when she knew Arvanitis slept on the bottom bunk.

“That’s a great question. I was very confused as well,” she told host Andy Cohen.

The chief stew didn’t know much about the situation when it went down in real-time.

“I was told that she was very confused, it was a complete mistake,” Rigby recalled. “When I saw her, she was eating Pringles in bed and just chilling. I’m like, ‘Uh, did that just happen?’ And she was completely oblivious. That’s all I kind of really heard from it.”

When she watched the scene back, she said she was “shocked — mainly because of Wihan.”

“He knew it was her. He almost invited her in,” Rigby added, to which Cohen replied, “He was confused but on the other hand he was like, ‘Oh, here. Let’s snuggle.’ He did the grab, right?”

Even Below Deck Mediterranean alum Mzi Dempers thought Du Toit “knew exactly what he was doing” when he pulled Harris in for some spooning action.

As for what Rigby thought about Arvanitis’ violent reaction to the ordeal, she said, “I could see it boiling up in him. He knew something was kind of brewing anyway. Obviously, that’s no way to react but I can see in that environment.”

Watch What Happens Live airs Sunday through Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on Bravo. New episodes are available to stream the next day on Peacock.
