‘Below Deck Med’ Season 9 star Bri Muller recalls horrible childhood experience
ATHENS, GREECE: During the most recent episode of 'Below Deck Mediterranean' Season 9, stew Bri Muller shared a heart-wrenching account of the bullying she endured while attending boarding school.
While having a conversation with her mother Sharon Muller over the phone, Bri discussed the ongoing situation with Elena Dubaich at Mustique. When her mom inquired if everything had been resolved, Bri responded with a definitive "no."
Bri expressed her concern by saying, "I feel like I'm saying the wrong stuff," to which Sharon replied, "Just show kindness and remember there is a fine fine balance between being assertive in the way people perceive you. Sometimes they might perceive it to be cheeky."
During a confessional, Bri opened up about the horrific experience of being bullied during her school years. She shared the emotional toll it took on her mental health.
"Standing up for myself is very scary. I went to boarding school and they just had like a way of making me feel small. We got hierarchy drilled into us. Whoever was above you in terms of age you would have to wait at a door, even if the person was meters away, otherwise you'd be bullied," she said in a confessional.
Sharon told Bri, "Just remember you got your mother's love with you," to which she responded, "Thank you, mama."
'Below Deck Med' Season 9: Is Bri Muller dating Joe Bradley?
Romantic relationships on boats are a significant aspect of 'Below Deck Med.' In the most recent season, a love triangle developed between Bri Muller, Elena "Ellie" Dubaich, and Joe Bradley. After a night out, Joe and Bri became cozy, causing jealousy from Ellie. It appears that Bri and Joe are no longer in a relationship.
During her guest appearance on 'Watch What Happens Live' after the episode aired, host Andy Cohen took the opportunity to discuss Bri's bold move. He asked her about the inspiration behind her decision to make a move on Joe in the show.
At first, Bri hesitated and responded with uncertainty, admitting she wasn't entirely sure. However, she spilled the tea as the discussion continued.
“Normally, once I have a few Tequila’s down, I’m not so shy. So, yeah. I was on the Tequila train. I had that confidence in me,” she chuckled.
The conversation then shifted to Gael Cameron, who was sitting next to Bri on 'WWHL'. As someone who worked closely with Joe, Andy was intrigued to know Gael's opinion on whether Joe seemed to be getting closer to Bri or Elena. Gael ultimately chose Bri, attributing their similar personalities as the reason for her choice.
