Read on to see why fans think she should seek help.

Ashley Marti is always in competition with other women

At the start of Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 3, Ashley revealed in her confessional that she’s been in competition with other women for most of her life. It all started in high school when she and her sister would compete for the attention of their male classmates. She claimed that her sister slept with most of her boyfriends.

Ashley ended up with low self-esteem as a result. Her insecurities could be the reason why she’s always chasing men. Yet, it was her comments that continued to concern Below Deck fans. Earlier on in the season, she made an inappropriate joke that rang alarm bells.

She thinks she can have her way with men

During one scene on the Below Deck spinoff, Ashley joked to deckhand Kelsie Golgia about the new deckhand. She told Kelsie that she could have the next man that joins the yacht. The reason is that Ashley wants Gary all to herself, even though he expressed interest in Gabriela Barragan by that point.

She joked that she could coerce Gary to sleep with her. Below Deck fans continue to see her predatory ways play out on the show. It became clear in the previous episode when she was accused of assault. Ashley tried hooking up with Gary even though he was drunk and said he didn’t want to sleep with her.
