Daisy Kelliher is opening up about switching Below Deck franchises!
The 38-year-old Bravo star spent four seasons serving as Chief Stew on Below Deck Sailing Yacht, and as the show is on an indefinite hiatus, she has now joined the upcoming fourth season of Below Deck Down Under as the new Chief Stew, replacing Aesha Scott, who went over to Below Deck Mediterranean.
In a new interview, Daisy dished on moving over to a different type of super yacht, and her nerves on making the change and working with a different captain.

“[Changing boats] was very nerve-wracking. I got very familiar with Parsifal and Capt. Glenn Shephard and to what sailing was all about,” she tells Us Weekly. “[Suddenly, on Down Under it was like,] Oh, can I do this? What’s it going to be like? Am I going to clash with the captain? Can I do a motorboat? I think it was good for me to change and be given a new challenge, but I was certainly very, very nervous.”
“Regarding reaching out to people [on what to expect], I didn’t, same way I treated my first season. I wanted to have my own experience,” Daisy continued. “I’m human, like everybody else, and I didn’t want my experience to be influenced by other opinions… I’d watched the season, so I had an idea of what I was walking into. I knew [Captain] Jason [Chambers] was going to be there, and that’s all I really needed to know.”
Captain Jason also shared his praise for Daisy and her work on BDDU.
“I’m happy to have Daisy come back. She works well, she works hard. She’s authentic, and she really cares about the job,” he told the mag. “Daisy brought her A-game, and she didn’t hold anything back. When she wants something, she gets it.”
