Nathan Gallagher's below Deck castmate reacts as Bravo cuts ties

Below Deck Mediterranean's Joe Bradley subtly signaled his approval after Bravo confirmed it has permanently cut ties with former castmate Nathan Gallagher following his conviction on domestic violence charges.

According to Us Weekly, Bradley "liked" an Instagram post from the outlet announcing the network's decision, a quiet but telling gesture given his history as a co-star of both Gallagher and his accuser.

Bravo confirmed its stance in a statement to multiple outlets on September 3. 

"Bravo does not plan on working with Nathan in the future." 

The decision follows Gallagher's arrest in Sydney, Australia, just days after Christmas 2025, on charges including assault and intentional choking connected to an alleged altercation with his ex-girlfriend and Below Deck Med co-star, Gael Cameron, with whom he shares a 1-year-old son, Kayden. 

Cameron later filed for an Apprehended Violence Application against him in Australia for her own protection. 

After Gallagher was convicted on three counts of domestic violence and subsequently failed to appear at a scheduled court hearing, New South Wales Police issued an arrest warrant for him on September 1, stating he is believed to be overseas, a separate assault case reportedly connected to an incident in Ireland has also surfaced.

Gallagher addressed the allegations publicly last month, telling Rolling Stone he'd "made mistakes" but that only "one side of what was an extremely complicated situation" had been made public, though he did not provide supporting evidence when asked. 

"I'm not claiming I was perfect. I wasn't. I made mistakes and I will take responsibility for my own actions," he said at the time. 

Despite cutting ties with him going forward, Bravo has said it does not plan to edit Gallagher out of the currently airing 11th season of Below Deck Mediterranean, since that footage was filmed before his arrest.

Sources told Rolling Stone that some members of the Below Deck franchise had grown frustrated with the network's earlier silence on the matter following news of the arrest in mid-August.
