Below Deck fans might be surprised to know that many of the show’s former cast members have switched from Bravo to OnlyFans.
The series, which debuted on Bravo in 2013, introduced viewers to various crew members who reside and work on a superyacht during charter season. Below Deck quickly became a major success for the network, spawning spinoffs including Below Deck Mediterranean, Below Deck Sailing Yacht, Below Deck Down Under and Below Deck Adventure.
Below Deck usually has a rotating cast each season except for the captains and sometimes the chief stews and bosuns. Former cast members have still managed to find success from appearing on the show after filming wrapped. For some, that has meant turning their 15 seconds of fame into a longer lasting brand via the NSFW app OnlyFans.
OnlyFans is a subscription-based platform which allows creators to charge a fee for content, much of which is partially or fully nude. Users have the ability to share adult content with subscribers for free or with a price tag per post.

After a tumultuous time filming Below Deck Sailing Yacht, Ashley pivoted to OnlyFans and has gained over 124,000 likes on the app.
“Just want to thank @BravoWWHL for all the free OF publicity! I love waking up and seeing that in a couple hours, I’ve made more money than #Bravo paid me for 6 weeks,” the former stew tweeted in June 2022 after she skipped out on filming the Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 3 reunion.

The chef joined the first season of Below Deck Down Under and quickly ended up at odds with chief stew Aesha Scott and Captain Jason Chambers. As a result, Ryan didn’t last the entire charter season, which didn’t score him many points with the audience.
Ryan, however, didn’t let the lackluster onscreen reaction stop him from branching out with an OnlyFans account. Fans can subscribe for free to the page to see some new content from Ryan every once in a while.

Since her time on Below Deck Mediterranean, Elena has praised the adult website for allowing her to feel liberated.
“I’m kind of keeping it relatively PG on my wall [with] lingerie type of, like, insinuated sexuality type of stuff,” she told the Daily Star in May 2023. “[I’m] letting other people admire the beauty of [my] body.”

Many Below Deck viewers probably don’t remember Pete since he was fired from season 4 of Below Deck Mediterranean for posting racist comments on social media. He was subsequently cut from most of the scenes that made it to air in 2020.
After the scandal, Pete set up an account on the adult website where he has over 19,000 likes. Subscribers have to pay $12.99 a month to see the content Pete has shared so far.
