The much-anticipated season 5 of Below Deck Sailing Yacht kicked off this Monday, October 7, 2024, featuring returning favorites like Gary King and Daisy Kelliher.
Daisy expressed her reluctance to be near Gary, citing his lack of respect for her relationship with Collin during season 4. However, during the premiere episode, she took the opportunity to confront Gary about his absence following her breakup with Collin.
Online reactions from fans to their dialogue reflected disappointment towards both cast members. One viewer remarked on X:
“I’m already over Daisy and Gary.”
“Do we have to endure another season of Daisy & Gary arguing? It was dull before, so why repeat it?”a fan added.
“I don’t understand why Daisy is still so upset with Gary. Is it really just because he didn’t console her after her breakup with Collin?”another tweet stated.
Some viewers felt Daisy’s expectations from Gary were exaggerated:
“You expected Gary to comfort you after breaking up with the guy you chose over him? The sense of entitlement from Daisy is incredible!”one commenter expressed.
“Watching #BelowDeckSailing and wait, what did I miss? I get Daisy and Collin broke up, but why is she taking it out on Gary??”a fan questioned.
“It’s frustrating to see Daisy allow Gary to get to her. He treated her poorly last season. He clearly does not care about her feelings,”commented another user.
Overall sentiments from the season 5 audience included:
“Am I the only one who isn’t excited to see either Daisy or Gary? It’s a constant loop: Gary pursues women, Daisy gets upset. Neither are relatable. Bring back Collin!”someone wrote.
“What I don’t want to witness this season: Daisy crying because of Gary, claiming she doesn’t want him but flipping out when he flirts with other girls. I really hope her obsession doesn’t ruin this season,”a fan commented.
“I Needed You”— Daisy confronts Gary about his support following her breakup in Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5
In the inaugural episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5, Daisy made it clear that she wanted to keep her distance from Gary King. She mentioned that his behavior in season 4 made her life “very difficult,”and she was uncertain about what to expect from him this season.
Daisy admitted she was not eager to collaborate with him again but later found herself discussing the aftermath of her breakup with Collin alongside Gary.
She confided in him about her need for friendship post-breakup, expressing feelings of being “incredibly low and very lonely.”
“All I wanted was for you to reach out to me. I needed you,”Daisy told him.
She also critiqued Gary for ignoring her attempts to talk while she was visibly upset. Daisy clarified that her frustration wasn’t about Gary having an issue with her, but rather his absence when she needed support.
In his defense, Gary explained that he needed time to process everything. Although Daisy asserted she didn’t hold it against him, she felt abandoned to “figure it out”on her own.
Gary apologized for not being the friend he should have been. While Daisy acknowledged the apology, she clarified to the cameras that true change meant Gary needed to act differently in the future, expressing skepticism about whether that would happen.
Viewers shared their thoughts on the confrontation online, expressing discontent towards both individuals involved.
Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 5 will premiere new episodes every Monday on Bravo.
