SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA: 'Below Deck Mediterranean' Season 9 is set to introduce a fresh group of crew members alongside familiar faces such as Captain Sandy Yawn and Chief Stew Aesha Scott. Among the newcomers is Gael Cameron, a deckhand from Sydney, Australia.

Beyond her experience working on yachts, Gael has ventured into modeling over the years. As per her LinkedIn profile, she's been represented by Elite Models Management in Australia since 2019.

During her downtime, Gael enjoys activities such as free diving, scuba diving, and indulging in good food. Her Instagram feed is a visual treat, featuring mesmerizing reels of her underwater adventures, showcasing the stunning sights she encounters while scuba diving.

Despite previously being afraid of sharks, Gael has conquered her fear and now peacefully swims alongside them. She celebrates her birthday on May 14th, placing her firmly under the grounded and determined sign of Taurus.

In the official trailer of the show, Aesha lauds Gael and her team in Mustique, noting their striking appearance. From the trailer, it appears there's a palpable romantic tension brewing between Gael and the new deckhand, Nathan Gallagher. Gael and Nathan are inseparable, but Nathan tries to play it off as just being best friends. 

They are depicted as being very close in a car, almost sharing a kiss before Gael pulls away and apologizes. Adding to the drama, it becomes apparent that Gael may have a boyfriend back home. She is shown in tears, even while on the phone, and confesses to facing some difficulties.

How many years of yachting experience does 'Below Deck Mediterranean' star Gael Cameron have?

Gael Cameron is poised to make her debut as a new deckhand on the upcoming ninth season of 'Below Deck Mediterranean'. With three years of experience in the yachting industry under her belt, Gael is well-versed in the ins and outs of the industry.

Despite the allure of the glamorous lifestyle of working and living on a boat, Gael emphasized the sacrifices involved, such as being away from loved ones for extended periods and the difficulties of maintaining relationships from a distance.

"As much as it seems like a dream job, there are sacrifices we make. We’re away from our friends and family for years at a time sometimes and maintaining healthy, long-distance relationships can be very challenging," she told Bravo.
