In this special episode of RED, Ashleigh McPherson steps behind the mic to interview Michelle Barone herself and her fellow charter guests—the Primary, Helen Hoey, Kelly Fury, and her favorite traveling companion Domenico Lepore—about the drama that rocked Season 12 of Below Deck. From Kelly’s unprecedented onboard meltdown that ended with police intervention—to the heartfelt moments of their charter—this episode dives deep into the chaos you didn’t see.
Ashleigh gets candid with the crew that was docked in it: Helen’s calm empathy as Kelly’s stabilizing force, Kelly reflecting on what went down, and Dominico sharing what it was like navigating the turbulence firsthand. Plus, Michelle reveals her POV on the drama—and the emotions—behind the scenes.
Join us for a riveting conversation that brings you closer than ever to what really happened on deck, not just below it.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome back to Ried Read. It is Ashley McPherson, and
I am sitting across from my co host today because
I am interviewing her and the rest of some of
the Below Deck cast from season twelve.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Absolutely, it was so much fun and we were actually
the chartered guess for the boat, and it was such
an experience. I can't wait to get into it. And
I can't believe I'm not interviewing my own show.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
I know, guys, you've seen the Ashley takeovers on the
Red Carpet. So we're taking it to the podcast today
and I'm going to ask everyone all about their experience
and what was like on Blow Deck. All right, all right, first,
(00:42):
I want to start with everyone just introducing themselves and just.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Saying where you're from.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
Helen, let's start with you since you were the primary.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
Okay, So my name is Helen Hoy and I'm originally
from Washington, DC and I have a home in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 6 (00:56):
I'm not there very often, and.
Speaker 5 (01:00):
Anyways, it was quite a pleasure or to be able
to enjoy and experience a vacation together with my dear
friends right here.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Yes, you're the best.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Key, very nice. My name is Kelly Fury.
Speaker 7 (01:13):
I'm from South Jersey, Borhees originally born and raised, and
I had spent some time in Booca Ratone last year
and I'm currently back in Gibbsburn, New Jersey.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Domenica.
Speaker 8 (01:30):
My name is Domenica Lapour. I am the wonderful Michelle
Baron's brother in law and I am here because I
got a last minute invite that I took.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
And honestly, I think that's where we should start some seeds.
You had to pick a guest to take with you,
and you took your brother in law.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
So Helen called me and said, Michelle, you know I
love you and I want to bring you on this
trip on below deck and I was like really, like seriously,
and she's like, yeah, it's in three weeks.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
I'm like, okay, where Saint Martin.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I'm like really, She's like, yeah, are you you know
you're gonna jump on a plane do this? That? And
the third I well, can I bring someone with me
because I know someone that would be the perfect fit.
She said, let me see what I can do. So
we sent Domenico's picture over. We gave him a couple
of shots of you know him at a wedding and
this and that. Yeah, a little vogue and he got
accepted and there we were on below deck.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Helen adopted friend over here, that's is now a true friend.
Speaker 8 (02:25):
I felt very welcome. They definitely welcomed into the group.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
You know, Helen, you were amazing as the primary. You
held the ship down, no joke, and we just I
just want to say thank you for for including me
and your friend group and for being such a dear friend.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
I just loved and adore you and you're amazing.
Speaker 6 (02:44):
Thanks and communion together.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Yeah, we do.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
So this was your second time on the show, correct.
Speaker 6 (02:49):
Actually third, third time on the show, fourth invite, third time, okay,
all right, and got quarantined.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Well at least you were able to go this. So
I want to know from everyone else, what were your
expectations before going into the show. What did you think
was going to happen?
Speaker 8 (03:09):
I had no expectations. I didn't even know what the
boat was going to look like. I just knew that
we were going to be eight people. Didn't really have
any expectations because I wanted to keep an open mind,
because I also wanted to have fun because it was
still a vacation. But I just was like, all right,
let's just go with the flow.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
That's the best way to do it.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
Probably what about you, Kelly.
Speaker 7 (03:31):
And mine, We're just to just have the best time
ever you drink, have the best time with friends. That's
enjoy fully like experience and just enjoy, have fun and
enjoy me.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
I just wanted to know what it was like to
really be on a reality show.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
I was excited to have the experience. I'm on camera
a lot.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
I do a lot of them, seeing them on every
day I do something on camera, it's TikTok to us
or whatever, and I just kind of felt like I
wanted to see what it was like with a full production.
And you know, it was different having the camera here
when you're eating a bowl of cereal or they're like
it's dairy free and I'm catering to every your every
single need and the camera's here, and then it's here
(04:17):
and then I'm.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Like, hi, Helen, is it me or you? Or is
the camera here?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
It was like twenty four hours, you know, to take
off your mic, You're like kind of like, hey, I'm here,
can we take it off and change? And it's even
in the bathroom you're micd up and talking, so every single.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Moment is filmed.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
You know, you just kind of forget that it's there sometimes,
And I think that was the coolest part. And you know,
the first hour or two, I was like observing it
all a little quiet, and even one of the people
on the boat, our dear friend, the main character there,
that Frasier, He was like, you're quiet.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
I'm like, I'm really not. I was like, I just
want to get what's going on here to start? Yeah, exactly.
It was really cool.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
So reality TV, I mean, you don't get any control
in anything. What happened when you guys got there, they
miked you up immediately.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Many times we did a bunch of takes of that,
and we did a lot of tiktoks. That was kind
of my role on the boat. I was Helen's like,
let's get content. I'm like, girl, you came to the
right person.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
So we had a that was like a night of TikTok. Yeah,
the laingerie after our pillow fight.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Yes, oh all right, let's hear about that. What happened
at the pillow fight?
Speaker 5 (05:30):
Well, truly, we were just like releasing our anxieties because
you know, when you when you're living because basically that's
what you're doing. You're living but vacationing at the same time,
and you're in close quarters.
Speaker 6 (05:45):
And there were.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Times when you're sitting down and having lunch and a
friend speaking over you, and you know, you are like
you get kind of.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
A little annoyed with each other. So that's when you
have to break out the manners.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Yeah, you know, and you know, but it's just.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Basically a time of you have to be forgiving of
that and you know, and just have a good time.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
And I felt like I felt like when we were
you know, they take away yourself. They don't take away
yourself when you can have yoursel phone, but they take
away any license music.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
You have to.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Kind of like there's nothing to do but sit around
and talk. And when you're talking and drinking and eating
go down. You kind of get like in a place
where you're like, all right, well you just irritated me.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Why are you're talking over me?
Speaker 2 (06:35):
And Helen would have to calm the storm a little bit,
and then you would get annoyed to be like hello,
I'm here.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
I got all of you guys here, Like.
Speaker 6 (06:42):
Come on, all right, I have a conversation and let's.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
Not monologue, right, It's not that well, like, you're there
to enjoy each other and not together.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
You did in a lovely way.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
Yeah, but it was just that's what you know, Helen.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
That's what Helen does.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
What was the biggest argument that weekend, Kelly, you.
Speaker 4 (07:03):

Speaker 1 (07:10):
You're asking, okay, all right, what do you There's.
Speaker 7 (07:12):
Some things that went down. Okay, what happened after lunch?
I just apparently wanted to go in the water. Everybody
was enjoying their lunch and they were setting up the
water toys outside and I was like, oh, that looks fun.
I'm ready to get wet and jump in the water.
(07:33):
So I take off my cover up and whatever. My
mic like, I'm jumping in the water, like no, no, no,

Speaker 4 (08:12):
Oh I guess I can. And as I'm jumping like, no,
don't do that.
Speaker 7 (08:15):
I was like jumping in the water and then it
was a big problem.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
So what happened if you?
Speaker 7 (08:20):
Because I drank too much champagne apparently they were wearing
the Dane.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
I was dangerous, okay, dangerous.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
So then we had to take her in Helen's room.
Helen tried to come down.
Speaker 7 (08:32):
I was locked in Helen's and Richard's master like yacht.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
Sweet which right, yeah.
Speaker 7 (08:40):

to find open windows, doors, was like, let me out

Speaker 4 (08:46):
The captain, I.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Was, the captain of the boat comes out.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
She jumps off a moving ship. The captain of the
boat comes out.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
The boat was moving when you jumped off, so she.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
It was it was stationary.
Speaker 6 (09:01):
It felt like it was moving because you and forth.
Speaker 7 (09:05):
It was stationary because there it was, but there was
the water wasn't out still, so it.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Felt like yeah yeah yeah yeah, so.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
Stop yeah, maybe not moving forward yea.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Helen and I in my first round like I can't really,
I can't do this, Like you got to help me,
you know, they want me out there.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
So I was like, all right, I'll sit with her.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
And there were points where she was just I was
holding her down, man grabbing her arm, putting her down.
I'm like, hell, if you go out there, the police
are coming. They're going to escort you off the boat.
And you're like, I don't care, Forget this, forget that.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
I'm like, Helen, what do I do with Kelly? And
You're like, just keep her in there.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
I'm gonna calm everybody down. You were such a great primary.
Thank you you can do to keep the peace and
keep everyone together.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
And I'm just like, Kelly, please come on.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Helen brought us here out of respect, and you just
really lost and Jen was losing it, and I said, okay,
we're going to do Brian was upset, the whole boat was,
and everyone came in trying to calm me down. Then
all of a sudden, I'm grabbing you and you're like
I'm breaking out of here, and you just went I
couldn't hold on anymore.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
That was it, and the.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Captain grabbed open her and she goes, I want to
talk to you. He's like, all right, let's talk. You
walk in first, and he closed the door behind her
and held the door close.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
So that was for safety measure, right. So what ended
up happening at the end, you just rested.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
And then no, Helen, I had a private escort.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
No, off the boat, off the bit.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Poor Helen had to accompany me.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
For the rest of the trip. Oh no, that was
two hours in by the.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Way, two hours into the.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
It was after lunch.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
We got on for breakfast the mimosas.
Speaker 9 (10:58):
It was all right, right, yeah, yeah, four hours later, okay,
all right, all right.
Speaker 6 (11:05):
Four hours into the actual trip.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Yeah, and then.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Helen had to leave us and stay the night.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
And I just felt so bad because you put all
this together and it was hard and it.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Wasn't Kelly didn't mean it.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Kelly was champagne.
Speaker 6 (11:21):
Well in London they call it go go juice champagne
and because it definitely makes you do.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
But you are like forty eight hours trying to and
like trying to prepare for the trip, like two weeks prior,
a week prior, like, and then not knowing if you're
going or not going, and then like my little bit
of an X was on the boat, So that was
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Of a wa We got to go in depth with that.
What do you mean your ex was on the boat?
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Can we do the laugh? Can anyone do his last?
I wish I could say, I can't do that.
Speaker 8 (11:56):
Come on, I want to disrespect the laugh because that
laugh is too great.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
It's an iconic laugh. He is in so much film
because of that laugh. And Frankie is just so funny.
He is Helen's dear friend. And Kelly and Frankie used
to date, but they broke up for reasons unknown to me,
and he was he was on the boat, and I
thought for sure you and Frankie were going to rekindle,
and then we.
Speaker 6 (12:23):
Were sort of hoping for that.
Speaker 7 (12:24):
Yeah, and a nice gentleman in Pittsburgh. So now that's
not happening. But I would never go back to that.
I'm sorry, sorry, not sorry.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
So I know the show good guy, but.
Speaker 7 (12:40):
In a lot of ways he hurt me badly.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Yeah, it's sorry. We're leaving it in the past and
on the boat, so I know the show is basically
based off of the actual crew that's working on the boat.
Were there any interactions that made the trip a little
bit more memorable for you guys?
Speaker 5 (12:54):
Well, I would say, I would you like to share
one of your memorable melmen.
Speaker 8 (12:58):
Well, I tried to act like I was on vacation,
and typically when on vacation. You want to talk to people,
want to meet new people, and of course, you know,
you don't really have many choices to talk to people.
So I want to talk to the bartenders.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
There's two girls.
Speaker 8 (13:12):
There were bartenders. That was the main area.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
They were really cut, they were they were all great,
beautiful girls, too beautiful too.
Speaker 8 (13:19):
And they're the main part of the boat. They say,
this is where you get to hang out most of
the time.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
So I'm just talking to the lut beach.
Speaker 8 (13:28):
So I'm I'm just trying to talk to them like
normal conversation, and you know, all of a sudden, I
see like a camera guy just like waddle over with
the camera and he's just like right right here, like
right here in front of your face. And then it
got to a point it's like I don't really know
what else to.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Say, Like I'm literally running out of yeah, like.
Speaker 8 (13:46):
I'm trying to like feed stuff to keep saying because
the guy he wants to film the interaction, you know,
how the guests interact with the crew interact with the
charter guests. So the flirting is at a minimal, you know,
but it still got I got some instagrama, I get
(14:06):
her number, I tried to get a number, and I
think this was a different thing I tried. I knew
that she was like WhatsApp was their thing, because I
don't know what's happened. So I said, let me make
sure WhatsApp and she goes, okay, no problem, no problem,
and I give her the phone. She goes in, she's
looking at it and like and she goes, I'm just
gonna give you my Instagram. So I'm like, okay, Like
that's that's fine. I'll work with that. And then like
(14:27):
the next day, I'm looking through Instagram and I figured
that she maybe not the type of person that likes
people that.
Speaker 7 (14:34):
Look like me.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Okay, I got it.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
To respect it, and then I just found another person.
Of course, of course, but the interaction might like me better.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
You probably just started talking to frank about I was like,
frank come on, we gotta go get a cigar.
Speaker 8 (14:51):
So Frankie was down for everything.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
I mean he was.
Speaker 8 (14:55):
I think he would have taken all the crew and
he just wanted to hang out with everyone. But the
interaction with the crew I think was really fun. They
were really really nice. Other than them doing their jobs,
I thought they were just really hospitable and.
Speaker 6 (15:06):
Just no drama.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
I didn't cause any drama because I was like, I
didn't want to be that guy who gets, you know, harassing. Yeah,
for reality, I was in international waters.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
It's still I had to still be.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Of course, all right. So Day one, Kelly gets kicked
off the boat, Helen goes with her. What's happening after that?
Day two? What's going on?
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Cry all night without Helen?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Right, it was really Kelly, Kelly, I love you, honey,
but you did it to yourself and Helen you.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Were I didn't do it to myself.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Well, you weren't being RESTful of the captain and you
made I was sweating in my hair frist girl.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
Was there but me and the two guy and the
girl in the back of the boat.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
That was it.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
It was I think it was Barbara and Barbara and
this other guy. I was on there long enough to
know their names. So I jump off and they were
like no, no, I was like, yes, I can.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
I was there for the good part. I was there
for the part where I had to you.
Speaker 7 (16:12):
Were, I was there, but I was there. I was respectful.
I just I was just doing what I wanted to do.
Like the boat was stationary and they don't know my skills,
like I'm athletic and right, which they don't know my skills.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
True, Oh, I know she was the perfect person to
brok whatever. I can't, but I will say that Kelly, even.
Speaker 7 (16:37):
Trying to be disrespectful at all, you were just trying
to have fun, right, which I kept saying.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
I know.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I just think it was hard to have Helen leave
because we all wanted to celebrate this moment.
Speaker 7 (16:49):
And I said that to her multiple times. It was like,
this is this is what we do, this is what
we do as friends, like saying I'm so sorry, but you.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
Know, the thing was is this is how amazing truly
the below deck and I mean it is a real charter.
This is not just a TV show and it's a
real charter. And people right, and but they have to
(17:24):
you know, abide by safety guidelines and exactly, and so
you know, Captain Carrie, truly I did.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
But I was being fine.
Speaker 7 (17:38):
But again, you know, okay, like like you said, like
a bartender has their.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
Right and so just like if you were to go
went too a bar and they noticed something that you know,
it's the person's a little over the limit. They have
to put the brakes on and so you know they
were doing wrong.
Speaker 6 (18:00):
No, it's not wrong.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Definitely.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
I don't like rules. I know, well that when you're
on a boat, and yeah, you gotta follow some.
Speaker 6 (18:12):
Rules, and if you know, that's just like when.
Speaker 7 (18:15):
You're trying to not follow any rules. It wasn't no
one said not to do it before. I like, there
was no rules. I was like, well, it's not even jumping.
I think it was more the intoxication, but it was.
And I definitely think you loved filling my glasses champagne.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Do you love that?
Speaker 3 (18:33):
I love that.
Speaker 7 (18:34):
I was having the best time of my life.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
I was having so much fun.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
But what happened was Helen didn't get to enjoy yourself
and she had to take all of it.
Speaker 7 (18:42):
I get to enjoy myself either because they said no, no, no,
no no.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
But it was Helen's boat.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
It was well, we didn't expect that to happen. But
I want to know what else did you guys not
expect before going to film the reality show? What do
you think something viewers would not expect?
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Well, Kellen, can we tell them what happened on day two?
Speaker 6 (19:03):
And that's yeah, can we go.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
What happened on day too well, so, which I mean
when you started that.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
The pulifight and the ocean, oh and the ocean. Oh yes,
the beach picnic.
Speaker 5 (19:20):
Yeah, so we had arranged a beach picnic can unbeknownst
to us, it was a newt beach.
Speaker 6 (19:28):
And I hate I hate tam lines, so naturally I
had to like whip that off.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
And then you own a launch of a company, Pultra,
And she had this beautiful bathing suit made.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
It was Kashmir gorgeous. I think it was.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Yeah, she looks drafted gorgeous, and she's she's like, you
know what, I'm like a Greek goddess.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
We're going for it, just.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Like, and that was it, and all of a sudden
she had a human flotation device.
Speaker 10 (19:58):
Yes exactly, And of course you had to comment on it,
and he commented, and I'm like, bright, I'm not sure
if that's a complimentary because he was like, oh, you
could beat a village.
Speaker 5 (20:12):
Are we talking nationally geographic? Are we talking like Hillary Clinton?
Like it's you know, it takes a village. I'm like,
I wasn't not quite sure where he was going with that.
He's like, it's a compliment. I'm like, okay, I'll take
it as a compliment.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
But didn't even matter because one of the cast members,
who's a main cast member on the show, was like, Helen,
I think he fell in love and he was just
like and I was like, you know what, Helen's like, well,
come here, I need someone to help me out and
hold me up.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
And there I didn't. He didn't.
Speaker 6 (20:44):
Oh yeah, that was yeah. I didn't need a raft.
He basically that's my rap.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
But then outside of that, literally there was like this
guy and he was just like free as a bird,
like floating.
Speaker 6 (21:00):
Do you remember that?
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (21:01):
I remember he.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
And I was like, wow, okay, excuse me, you need
to stop.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
She was trying to get his attention.
Speaker 6 (21:08):
Richard's like, what do you mean he needs to stop.
Speaker 11 (21:10):
I'm like, we just needed.
Speaker 5 (21:11):
A front told view.
Speaker 11 (21:12):
Yeah, there was nothing to do as when that's females
and sometimes men forget that, like we like to see,
you know, beautiful bodies as well, and there's not anybody there.
Speaker 6 (21:24):
Yeah, running, We're like okay, keep running.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I just want to say it was like an eighteen
year old, but he was like actually fifty and I
just didn't and actually.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
I don't even want to go below eighteen.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
But he, you know, he went and down and Helen's like,
turn around, and I'm like, Helen, trust me, And I
decided to say so.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
All right, so you needed a lifeguard to help you
out of the water right.
Speaker 6 (21:53):
Rift rift, I wrapt, I wouldn't see.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Any more help.
Speaker 1 (21:56):

I want to start with everyone just introducing themselves and just.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Saying where you're from.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
Helen, let's start with you since you were the primary.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
Okay, So my name is Helen Hoy and I'm originally
from Washington, DC and I have a home in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 6 (00:56):
I'm not there very often, and.
Speaker 5 (01:00):
Anyways, it was quite a pleasure or to be able
to enjoy and experience a vacation together with my dear
friends right here.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Yes, you're the best.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Key, very nice. My name is Kelly Fury.

and I'm currently back in Gibbsburn, New Jersey.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Domenica.
Speaker 8 (01:30):
My name is Domenica Lapour. I am the wonderful Michelle
Baron's brother in law and I am here because I
got a last minute invite that I took.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
And honestly, I think that's where we should start some seeds.
You had to pick a guest to take with you,
and you took your brother in law.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
So Helen called me and said, Michelle, you know I
love you and I want to bring you on this
trip on below deck and I was like really, like seriously,
and she's like, yeah, it's in three weeks.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
I'm like, okay, where Saint Martin.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I'm like really, She's like, yeah, are you you know
you're gonna jump on a plane do this? That? And
the third I well, can I bring someone with me
because I know someone that would be the perfect fit.
She said, let me see what I can do. So
we sent Domenico's picture over. We gave him a couple
of shots of you know him at a wedding and
this and that. Yeah, a little vogue and he got
accepted and there we were on below deck.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Helen adopted friend over here, that's is now a true friend.
Speaker 8 (02:25):
I felt very welcome. They definitely welcomed into the group.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
You know, Helen, you were amazing as the primary. You
held the ship down, no joke, and we just I
just want to say thank you for for including me
and your friend group and for being such a dear friend.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
I just loved and adore you and you're amazing.
Speaker 6 (02:44):
Thanks and communion together.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Yeah, we do.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
So this was your second time on the show, correct.
Speaker 6 (02:49):
Actually third, third time on the show, fourth invite, third time, okay,
all right, and got quarantined.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Well at least you were able to go this. So
I want to know from everyone else, what were your
expectations before going into the show. What did you think
was going to happen?
Speaker 8 (03:09):
I had no expectations. I didn't even know what the
boat was going to look like. I just knew that
we were going to be eight people. Didn't really have
any expectations because I wanted to keep an open mind,
because I also wanted to have fun because it was
still a vacation. But I just was like, all right,
let's just go with the flow.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
That's the best way to do it.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
Probably what about you, Kelly.
Speaker 7 (03:31):
And mine, We're just to just have the best time
ever you drink, have the best time with friends. That's
enjoy fully like experience and just enjoy, have fun and
enjoy me.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
I just wanted to know what it was like to
really be on a reality show.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
I was excited to have the experience. I'm on camera
a lot.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
I do a lot of them, seeing them on every
day I do something on camera, it's TikTok to us
or whatever, and I just kind of felt like I
wanted to see what it was like with a full production.
And you know, it was different having the camera here
when you're eating a bowl of cereal or they're like
it's dairy free and I'm catering to every your every
single need and the camera's here, and then it's here
(04:17):
and then I'm.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Like, hi, Helen, is it me or you? Or is
the camera here?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
It was like twenty four hours, you know, to take
off your mic, You're like kind of like, hey, I'm here,
can we take it off and change? And it's even
in the bathroom you're micd up and talking, so every single.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Moment is filmed.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
You know, you just kind of forget that it's there sometimes,
And I think that was the coolest part. And you know,
the first hour or two, I was like observing it
all a little quiet, and even one of the people
on the boat, our dear friend, the main character there,
that Frasier, He was like, you're quiet.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
I'm like, I'm really not. I was like, I just
want to get what's going on here to start? Yeah, exactly.
It was really cool.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
So reality TV, I mean, you don't get any control
in anything. What happened when you guys got there, they
miked you up immediately.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Many times we did a bunch of takes of that,
and we did a lot of tiktoks. That was kind
of my role on the boat. I was Helen's like,
let's get content. I'm like, girl, you came to the
right person.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
So we had a that was like a night of TikTok. Yeah,
the laingerie after our pillow fight.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Yes, oh all right, let's hear about that. What happened
at the pillow fight?
Speaker 5 (05:30):
Well, truly, we were just like releasing our anxieties because
you know, when you when you're living because basically that's
what you're doing. You're living but vacationing at the same time,
and you're in close quarters.
Speaker 6 (05:45):
And there were.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Times when you're sitting down and having lunch and a
friend speaking over you, and you know, you are like
you get kind of.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
A little annoyed with each other. So that's when you
have to break out the manners.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Yeah, you know, and you know, but it's just.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Basically a time of you have to be forgiving of
that and you know, and just have a good time.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
And I felt like I felt like when we were
you know, they take away yourself. They don't take away
yourself when you can have yoursel phone, but they take
away any license music.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
You have to.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Kind of like there's nothing to do but sit around
and talk. And when you're talking and drinking and eating
go down. You kind of get like in a place
where you're like, all right, well you just irritated me.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Why are you're talking over me?
Speaker 2 (06:35):
And Helen would have to calm the storm a little bit,
and then you would get annoyed to be like hello,
I'm here.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
I got all of you guys here, Like.
Speaker 6 (06:42):
Come on, all right, I have a conversation and let's.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
Not monologue, right, It's not that well, like, you're there
to enjoy each other and not together.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
You did in a lovely way.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
Yeah, but it was just that's what you know, Helen.
Speaker 4 (06:58):

I just apparently wanted to go in the water. Everybody
was enjoying their lunch and they were setting up the
water toys outside and I was like, oh, that looks fun.
I'm ready to get wet and jump in the water.

Helen and I in my first round like I can't really,
I can't do this, Like you got to help me,
you know, they want me out there.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
So I was like, all right, I'll sit with her.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
And there were points where she was just I was
holding her down, man grabbing her arm, putting her down.
I'm like, hell, if you go out there, the police
are coming. They're going to escort you off the boat.
And you're like, I don't care, Forget this, forget that.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
I'm like, Helen, what do I do with Kelly? And
You're like, just keep her in there.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
I'm gonna calm everybody down. You were such a great primary.
Thank you you can do to keep the peace and
keep everyone together.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
And I'm just like, Kelly, please come on.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Helen brought us here out of respect, and you just
really lost and Jen was losing it, and I said, okay,
we're going to do Brian was upset, the whole boat was,
and everyone came in trying to calm me down. Then
all of a sudden, I'm grabbing you and you're like
I'm breaking out of here, and you just went I
couldn't hold on anymore.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
That was it, and the.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Captain grabbed open her and she goes, I want to
talk to you. He's like, all right, let's talk. You
walk in first, and he closed the door behind her
and held the door close.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
So that was for safety measure, right. So what ended
up happening at the end, you just rested.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
And then no, Helen, I had a private escort.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
No, off the boat, off the bit.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Poor Helen had to accompany me.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
For the rest of the trip. Oh no, that was
two hours in by the.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Way, two hours into the.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
It was after lunch.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
We got on for breakfast the mimosas.
Speaker 9 (10:58):
It was all right, right, yeah, yeah, four hours later, okay,
all right, all right.
Speaker 6 (11:05):
Four hours into the actual trip.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Yeah, and then.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Helen had to leave us and stay the night.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
And I just felt so bad because you put all
this together and it was hard and it.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Wasn't Kelly didn't mean it.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Kelly was champagne.
Speaker 6 (11:21):
Well in London they call it go go juice champagne
and because it definitely makes you do.
Speaker 7 (11:27):
But you are like forty eight hours trying to and
like trying to prepare for the trip, like two weeks prior,
a week prior, like, and then not knowing if you're
going or not going, and then like my little bit
of an X was on the boat, So that was
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Of a wa We got to go in depth with that.
What do you mean your ex was on the boat?
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Can we do the laugh? Can anyone do his last?
I wish I could say, I can't do that.
Speaker 8 (11:56):
Come on, I want to disrespect the laugh because that
laugh is too great.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
It's an iconic laugh. He is in so much film
because of that laugh. And Frankie is just so funny.
He is Helen's dear friend. And Kelly and Frankie used
to date, but they broke up for reasons unknown to me,
and he was he was on the boat, and I
thought for sure you and Frankie were going to rekindle,
and then we.
Speaker 6 (12:23):
Were sort of hoping for that.
Speaker 7 (12:24):
Yeah, and a nice gentleman in Pittsburgh. So now that's
not happening. But I would never go back to that.
I'm sorry, sorry, not sorry.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
So I know the show good guy, but.
Speaker 7 (12:40):
In a lot of ways he hurt me badly.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Yeah, it's sorry. We're leaving it in the past and
on the boat, so I know the show is basically
based off of the actual crew that's working on the boat.
Were there any interactions that made the trip a little
bit more memorable for you guys?
Speaker 5 (12:54):
Well, I would say, I would you like to share
one of your memorable melmen.
Speaker 8 (12:58):
Well, I tried to act like I was on vacation,
and typically when on vacation. You want to talk to people,
want to meet new people, and of course, you know,
you don't really have many choices to talk to people.
So I want to talk to the bartenders.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
There's two girls.
Speaker 8 (13:12):
There were bartenders. That was the main area.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
They were really cut, they were they were all great,
beautiful girls, too beautiful too.
Speaker 8 (13:19):
And they're the main part of the boat. They say,
this is where you get to hang out most of
the time.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
So I'm just talking to the lut beach.
Speaker 8 (13:28):
So I'm I'm just trying to talk to them like
normal conversation, and you know, all of a sudden, I
see like a camera guy just like waddle over with
the camera and he's just like right right here, like
right here in front of your face. And then it
got to a point it's like I don't really know
what else to.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Say, Like I'm literally running out of yeah, like.
Speaker 8 (13:46):
I'm trying to like feed stuff to keep saying because
the guy he wants to film the interaction, you know,
how the guests interact with the crew interact with the
charter guests. So the flirting is at a minimal, you know,
but it still got I got some instagrama, I get
(14:06):
her number, I tried to get a number, and I
think this was a different thing I tried. I knew
that she was like WhatsApp was their thing, because I
don't know what's happened. So I said, let me make
sure WhatsApp and she goes, okay, no problem, no problem,
and I give her the phone. She goes in, she's
looking at it and like and she goes, I'm just
gonna give you my Instagram. So I'm like, okay, Like
that's that's fine. I'll work with that. And then like
(14:27):
the next day, I'm looking through Instagram and I figured
that she maybe not the type of person that likes
people that.
Speaker 7 (14:34):
Look like me.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Okay, I got it.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
To respect it, and then I just found another person.
Of course, of course, but the interaction might like me better.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
You probably just started talking to frank about I was like,
frank come on, we gotta go get a cigar.
Speaker 8 (14:51):
So Frankie was down for everything.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
I mean he was.
Speaker 8 (14:55):
I think he would have taken all the crew and
he just wanted to hang out with everyone. But the
interaction with the crew I think was really fun. They
were really really nice. Other than them doing their jobs,
I thought they were just really hospitable and.
Speaker 6 (15:06):
Just no drama.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
I didn't cause any drama because I was like, I
didn't want to be that guy who gets, you know, harassing. Yeah,
for reality, I was in international waters.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
It's still I had to still be.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Of course, all right. So Day one, Kelly gets kicked
off the boat, Helen goes with her. What's happening after that?
Day two? What's going on?
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Cry all night without Helen?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Right, it was really Kelly, Kelly, I love you, honey,
but you did it to yourself and Helen you.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Were I didn't do it to myself.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Well, you weren't being RESTful of the captain and you
made I was sweating in my hair frist girl.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
Was there but me and the two guy and the
girl in the back of the boat.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
That was it.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
It was I think it was Barbara and Barbara and
this other guy. I was on there long enough to
know their names. So I jump off and they were
like no, no, I was like, yes, I can.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
I was there for the good part. I was there
for the part where I had to you.
Speaker 7 (16:12):
Were, I was there, but I was there. I was respectful.
I just I was just doing what I wanted to do.
Like the boat was stationary and they don't know my skills,
like I'm athletic and right, which they don't know my skills.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
True, Oh, I know she was the perfect person to
brok whatever. I can't, but I will say that Kelly, even.
Speaker 7 (16:37):
Trying to be disrespectful at all, you were just trying
to have fun, right, which I kept saying.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
I know.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I just think it was hard to have Helen leave
because we all wanted to celebrate this moment.
Speaker 7 (16:49):
And I said that to her multiple times. It was like,
this is this is what we do, this is what
we do as friends, like saying I'm so sorry, but you.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
Know, the thing was is this is how amazing truly
the below deck and I mean it is a real charter.
This is not just a TV show and it's a
real charter. And people right, and but they have to
(17:24):
you know, abide by safety guidelines and exactly, and so
you know, Captain Carrie, truly I did.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
But I was being fine.
Speaker 7 (17:38):
But again, you know, okay, like like you said, like
a bartender has their.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
Right and so just like if you were to go
went too a bar and they noticed something that you know,
it's the person's a little over the limit. They have
to put the brakes on and so you know they
were doing wrong.
Speaker 6 (18:00):
No, it's not wrong.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Definitely.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
I don't like rules. I know, well that when you're
on a boat, and yeah, you gotta follow some.
Speaker 6 (18:12):
Rules, and if you know, that's just like when.
Speaker 7 (18:15):
You're trying to not follow any rules. It wasn't no
one said not to do it before. I like, there
was no rules. I was like, well, it's not even jumping.
I think it was more the intoxication, but it was.
And I definitely think you loved filling my glasses champagne.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Do you love that?
Speaker 3 (18:33):
I love that.
Speaker 7 (18:34):
I was having the best time of my life.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
I was having so much fun.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
But what happened was Helen didn't get to enjoy yourself
and she had to take all of it.
Speaker 7 (18:42):
I get to enjoy myself either because they said no, no, no,
no no.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
But it was Helen's boat.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
It was well, we didn't expect that to happen. But
I want to know what else did you guys not
expect before going to film the reality show? What do
you think something viewers would not expect?
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Well, Kellen, can we tell them what happened on day two?
Speaker 6 (19:03):
And that's yeah, can we go.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
What happened on day too well, so, which I mean
when you started that.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
The pulifight and the ocean, oh and the ocean. Oh yes,
the beach picnic.
Speaker 5 (19:20):
Yeah, so we had arranged a beach picnic can unbeknownst
to us, it was a newt beach.
Speaker 6 (19:28):
And I hate I hate tam lines, so naturally I
had to like whip that off.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
And then you own a launch of a company, Pultra,
And she had this beautiful bathing suit made.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
It was Kashmir gorgeous. I think it was.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Yeah, she looks drafted gorgeous, and she's she's like, you
know what, I'm like a Greek goddess.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
We're going for it, just.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Like, and that was it, and all of a sudden
she had a human flotation device.
Speaker 10 (19:58):
Yes exactly, And of course you had to comment on it,
and he commented, and I'm like, bright, I'm not sure
if that's a complimentary because he was like, oh, you
could beat a village.
Speaker 5 (20:12):
Are we talking nationally geographic? Are we talking like Hillary Clinton?
Like it's you know, it takes a village. I'm like,
I wasn't not quite sure where he was going with that.
He's like, it's a compliment. I'm like, okay, I'll take
it as a compliment.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
But didn't even matter because one of the cast members,
who's a main cast member on the show, was like, Helen,
I think he fell in love and he was just
like and I was like, you know what, Helen's like, well,
come here, I need someone to help me out and
hold me up.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
And there I didn't. He didn't.
Speaker 6 (20:44):
Oh yeah, that was yeah. I didn't need a raft.
He basically that's my rap.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
But then outside of that, literally there was like this
guy and he was just like free as a bird,
like floating.
Speaker 6 (21:00):
Do you remember that?
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (21:01):
I remember he.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
And I was like, wow, okay, excuse me, you need
to stop.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
She was trying to get his attention.
Speaker 6 (21:08):
Richard's like, what do you mean he needs to stop.
Speaker 11 (21:10):
I'm like, we just needed.
Speaker 5 (21:11):
A front told view.
Speaker 11 (21:12):
Yeah, there was nothing to do as when that's females
and sometimes men forget that, like we like to see,
you know, beautiful bodies as well, and there's not anybody there.
Speaker 6 (21:24):
Yeah, running, We're like okay, keep running.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I just want to say it was like an eighteen
year old, but he was like actually fifty and I
just didn't and actually.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
I don't even want to go below eighteen.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
But he, you know, he went and down and Helen's like,
turn around, and I'm like, Helen, trust me, And I
decided to say so.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
All right, so you needed a lifeguard to help you
out of the water right.
Speaker 6 (21:53):
Rift rift, I wrapt, I wouldn't see.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Any more help.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
I rode out.
Speaker 11 (21:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (21:57):
I was like, yeah, then we get down the walking
so we could have yeah, walked straight line.
Speaker 4 (22:03):
We had a great time.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
So you guys go back to the boat. What happens
on night.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
To pillow fights?
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Drunk?
Speaker 4 (22:12):
Yeah, Kelly was still on the boat with the FEDERALI.
Speaker 7 (22:15):
So I was having a fun time on the Orient Beach,
the nude beach basically, but get out of it, you
know me.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
I'm like Jackie chan bitch, you don't know me.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
She slipped out the job. How'd you do it? On
a boat ride?
Speaker 7 (22:32):
I was going with donuts with this boat on the water.
I have a good old time.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
You don't even know what I did.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Don't worry about it.

pillow Fight.
Speaker 4 (22:54):
Helen dressed us in her beautiful lingerie.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
We all wore a Pultra. A lot of our outfits
were seen through. I was hoping that my rear end
wasn't facing the camera, but I'm sure it was.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
You've got a good button.
Speaker 6 (23:06):
Yeah, exactly, it.
Speaker 4 (23:06):
