Fraser Olender has confirmed that chaos will definitely ensue during Below Deck Season 12. In a teaser for the new season, as seen in the video above, rumors about deckhand Kyle Stillie getting into an alleged entanglement with a married charter guest can be heard being spread by crew members.
How to Watch
Watch Below Deck on Bravo Mondays at 8/7c and next day on Peacock.
Fraser spoke with Us Weekly in April, where he revealed that the alleged hookup will shake things up a bit on the St. David. "It was definitely [the most explosive thing I have been a part of]. Because this situation was the catalyst for so many other problems," he explained.
"And this really did spiral into something that no one saw coming," he revealed. "So it's the beginning of the end. It's so good though."
The chief stew then opened up about his own run-ins with charter guests. "I've done it before, so I can't speak on [hooking up with a guest]," he said. "What is a hard no is on charter and what is a hard no is potentially engaging in something whilst their married significant other is also around."

Captain Kerry, who confronts Kyle about the alleged entanglement in the Below Deck Season 12 trailer, told People that this incident caused an investigation. "I had to really question him being there or not based on my findings in the investigation," he said.
"I was beside myself," he continued. "I had a hard problem leading with emotion. I've been cheated on and I know how it feels. If one of my crew was part of a cheating guest and their partner was on board, it hits home."

Kerry appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on June 2, where he agreed with Fraser's statement that Below Deck Season 12's charter guests are some of the "worst charter guests" in the history of the show. "That's an understatement," he admitted.
"One of the charters, I actually pulled the guests aside and said, 'Calm down, mate,'" he noted.
Kerry continued to tease what's to come, admitting to TV Insider earlier this month that they were really that intense. "You're not going to want to miss anything," he said. "The diversity of guests we have from some who maybe shouldn't have been there to ones who didn't want to leave. We had the whole spectrum. So many personalities. We made many friends of charter guests this season, more than I've ever had in the past."
