Sorry to this man.
“Below Deck” star Aesha Scott tells Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast that she would choose Captain Sandy Yawn to officiate her wedding to fiancé Scott Dobson — and not Captain Jason Chambers.
“It would be Sandy, for sure,” Aesha, 32, says of Yawn, 59, whom she started working for again on “Below Deck Mediterranean” after leaving Chambers’ “Below Deck Down Under” in a surprise return to her original home on Bravo.
Aesha explains that choosing Chambers, 50, for the special role would be “disrespectful” to Dobson as viewers have fervently pushed for her and the hunky yacht boss to get together.

“I just think with how many people for whatever stupid reason … so many fans are like, ‘But one day, aren’t you gonna end up with Jason?’” she says, asserting that dating Chambers would be a “hard” pass.
“I think it would be disrespectful to Scott to have the person fans dream of me being with to stand there and officiate the person that I actually am in love,” the chief stew adds.
Aesha announced her engagement to Dobson last month, sharing stunning photos from his seaside proposal in her native New Zealand.

While fans have expressed their wish for the reality star to date Chambers, Aesha has loyally acted as his wingwoman — even at back-to-back BravoCon events, where he was a hot commodity among single network stars.
“He would not have to work very hard to find someone to go on a date with,” Aesha told us of Chambers — who shares a young daughter named Saskia with ex Fuchsia Quinn — in July 2023.
“I just really want him to find someone because he’s so in love with his daughter. He’s such a good man.”

Lindsay Hubbard of “Summer House,” Lala Kent of “Vanderpump Rules,” Caroline Brooks of “The Real Housewives of Dubai” and Adriana de Moura of “The Real Housewives of Miami,” among other female Bravolebrities, have made it clear that they have had the hots for Chambers.
Aesha, for her part, teased that Chambers — whom she has affectionally dubbed “Captain Cutie” — is invited to her and Dobson’s wedding, where the handsome boating professional will hopefully feel sparks with one of her guests.
“I like that plan!” she says of playing matchmaker for Chambers at her nuptials, which she emphasizes will be a “big” but “private affair likely to take place in New Zealand in the summer of 2025 or 2026.

Until then, the bride-to-be — who filmed the first two seasons of “Below Deck Down Under,” which aired from March 2022 until September 2023 — is thrilled to be back on “Below Deck Med” and working in a region of the world that’s near and dear to her.
“The universe is bringing me back home to where I belong. I’m honestly so insanely happy because when I first started yachting, I flew to France with my sister. I was based in the South of France for years and years,” she recalls to “Virtual Reali-Tea.”
“So for me, the Mediterranean is the home of yachting and it’s my home of yachting in my heart,” Aesha continues. “So going back, it was it was just a really beautiful thing for me.”
“Below Deck Mediterranean” Season 9 premieres Monday at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
