Below Deck Med’s Chef Johnathan ‘Jono’ Shillingford sounds off on Captain Sandy Yawn and Elena Dubaich
Chef Johnathan “Jono” Shillingford has weighed in on Below Deck Med Season 9, including some issues he endured with Captain Sandy Yawn and Elena “Ellie” Dubaich.
There’s no question that the chef has had some trouble finding his footing on the Mustique yacht.
Captain Sandy has had to lecture Jono more than once, especially after Gigi Fernandez’s charter.
As Monsters and Critics previously reported, Jono spoke out on that topic, declaring it the “worst charter of his career.”
After Jono made another mistake during Trishelle Cannatella’s charter, Captain Sandy had a backup chef ready.
However, all that was nothing compared to the drama he endured when Ellie woke him up to help make late-night snacks, and the captain scolded her.
Now, the chef has commented on what happened on the show with Captain Sandy and Ellie.

Last night, Jono appeared on Watch What Happens Live, where a virtual fan wanted to know his thoughts on Captain Sandy’s having a replacement chef ready to go in case he couldn’t cut it.
“Honestly, a little shocking. Because I had no idea that was happening,” he expressed.
While he may have been shocked at Captain Sandy’s decision, he understood where she was coming from.
“But, to be fair, she’s a yacht captain, and she has to look after the boat. And if that’s what she has to do, then I respect her decision,” Jono stated.
