Ileisha Dell's Below Deck Journey
Ileisha was an excellent chef on Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 4. She worked under Captain Glenn Shephard aboard the Parsifal III and had a close relationship with Daisy, the Chief Stew. Chef Ileisha was unaware of Daisy, Gary and Colin's love triangle, which caused mayhem.
Instead of getting caught up in the commotion, the chef kept to herself and concentrated on her work. Chef Ileisha told Decider in an interview on July 3, 2023, that she had "no idea" the three crew members were having problems and that she was absolutely "out of the loop" on the disagreements.
“I am in that galley 20 hours a day. I’m cooking constantly. Unless the gossip comes into the galley, I somehow miss it” - Ileisha told Decider.
After posing for a photo with Captain Sandy at a Bravo event, there was speculation that Ileisha could appear on a future season of Below Deck Med.
The Mediterranean-themed series is the franchise's first and, probably, most successful spin-off, and Ileisha has the opportunity to showcase her culinary skills as a chef for Captain Sandy. Dells Med, her business, specializes in Mediterranean cuisine, coincidently.
If Below Deck Sailing Yacht is not renewed following the sexual assault claims against Gary, Ileisha should continue in the franchise on a different show.
