‘Below Deck’: Daisy Kelliher Slams Ashley Marti For Being No-Show?

Below Deck star Daisy Kelliher slammed Ashley Marti for being a no-show. As TV Shows Ace previously reported, Ashley did not show up to the Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 3 reunion. At first, she said she was going to be there, but she wasn’t looking forward to it. Amid the growing backlash over her behavior on the show, she opted not to go.

Ashley has since moved on from the yachting industry. The former reality star says she doesn’t need Bravo to use her as a “puppet.” She also claims to make more money with OnlyFans than with the show. Ashley is too “busy” to show up to the reunion special, which caused Daisy to erupt.

Why was Ashley Marti a no-show?

On Sunday, June 26, Ashley Marti took to her Instagram Stories to share a statement with her followers. She said that she skipped the Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 3 reunion. Rather, she did an Instagram Live where she could speak her peace. She used the platform on Sunday night to “really tell my side of the story.”

“At the time, the reunion was filmed, all of the stuff with the bedroom scene was coming out,” she wrote in her Instagram Stories. “And people were being very nasty, and I just felt like I didn’t want to have to deal with it during the reunion.”

Ashley asked her fans to send their questions to her DMs. During her Instagram Live, she didn’t mention her feud with Gabriela Barragan and the controversial scene with Gary King. She only talked about her grilled cheese sandwich and cooking skills. Ashley then took to her OnlyFans page to host the rest of the live stream with her paying followers.

She confirmed that she won’t return to the Below Deck franchise. The former webcam model says she’s too “busy” to attend the reunion since her OnlyFans page took off. Her former crew members spoke out about her being missing from the reunion. See what they have to say.

During the Below Deck reunion, Daisy didn’t hold back on her feelings, per In Touch Weekly. Host Andy Cohen clarified that Ashley was a “no show.” Former deckhand Tom Pearson said he “spoke to her yesterday” and said that “she doesn’t need this in her life.”

Chef Marcos Spaziani defended Ashley. He said that she could’ve been busy with her new life. Chief stew Daisy Kelliher interrupted him to slam the former second stew. She wasn’t here for Ashley’s excuses since she signed up to be on a reality show.

“We’re all busy. OK. We all have jobs,” Daisy said, looking visibly annoyed. “We all have things to do but we all knew that the reunion happens, so cut the bloody bulls***.”
