Below Deck’s Daisy Reveals Scathing Messages From Erica Rose’s Mom, Accuses Her of “Lies” and “Slander,” Plus What Wasn’t Shown

Below Deck Sailing Yacht’s Daisy Kelliher is not holding back on the ongoing feud between herself and returning charter guests  Erica Rose Sanders , Charles Sanders , and Erica’s mother Cindi Rose .

As fans will remember, Daisy was less-than-thrilled that Erica was returning for a second charter this season, and the two have been in a heated exchange (mostly, on Erica and company’s part).

Daisy did take the time to clarify on Twitter what exactly she was feeling toward the returning guests in real-time during the latest episode.

Daisy then went on to defend castmates Gabriela Barragan and Ashley Marti for also having to deal with the difficult couple.

Erica’s husband Charles has gone on record saying that the show was scripted and that he was “acting” on his most recent appearance of the show because that’s what producers wanted — a claim that the rest of the crew has adamantly denied.

Now, on a new episode o f The Pita Party Instagram series that Daisy co-hosts with fellow Below Deck stars Dani Soares and Alli Dore , Daisy is sharing the scathing messages Cindi had for the Below Deck Sailing Yacht crew after their first visit. She certainly did not hold back revealing why she was not in the mood to have them back aboard.

Daisy pulled out her tablet and read the messages she received from Cindi.

“All the crew worked hard, except for Captain Glenn and Daisy, who I think were there to create fake rocking ships and try to pretend he [and] she [were] yacht royalty were working. Daisy ordered people around, but I never saw her do any work,” Daisy began.

Daisy then revealed the message pivoted toward Captain Glenn’s treatment of the group and his not wanting to attend a “women’s empowerment” dinner.

“What would we talk about? That you were an older, confirmed bachelor who likes to be alone? It was rude of you to refuse our good manners. You are 50 something and should know manners by now. To ask people to pay over $25,000 per person and tell them it’s a luxury trip and show us activities and complain about us behind our backs is so immature and then expect tips that we generously did. At least we have manners,” Daisy shared in Cindi’s words.

Daisy made sure to let Below Deck fans know that it’s not particularly Erica, Charles, or Cindi’s frustrating behavior onboard the yacht itself that made her “blood boil,” but rather, it’s the “slander” and “lies” that they spread through social media.

“So when I saw this [Cindi’s message], it got my f***ing blood boiling,” Because it’s lies, it’s slander. It’s insane. And I didn’t retaliate. I didn’t say anything. I didn’t do anything,” she revealed.

“They are everything that I hate about social media. I hate liars. I hate fabricators. I hate people who use social media as a platform to spread gossip. And they’re everything of what I think represents is awful in the world and awful about social media,” the chief stew said.

Captain Glenn Shephard Reacts to Erica Rose’s Low Tip: “It Was an Intentional Slight”

The Below Deck Sailing Yacht boss has a theory on why this group of charter guests was not so generous with their gratuity.

After the Below Deck Sailing Yacht crew had to endure charter guest complaints about Chef Marcos Spaziani 's cooking and clean the Parsifal III 's stained white couch , the yachties were hoping for a nice tip to match all the work they put into Erica Rose's charter earlier this season. But that is not at all what they got.

How to Watch

Watch Below Deck Sailing Yacht on Bravo on Monday, October 7 at 9/8c and next day on  Peacock . Catch up on the Bravo app . 

During the tip meeting in the March 14 episode , Captain Glenn Shephard revealed that the charter guests had left the crew a total of $6,500 in tip, which came to $720 for each crew member. "I don't personally feel that this tip reflects the quality of service that we gave these guys," Captain Glenn told the Parsifal III crew before revealing the tip amount. "You guys worked really hard, and you pulled out all the stops to make this the best charter for them."

Daisy Kelliher , who had been vocal about not being a fan of Erica and her group of charter guests coming aboard the Parsifal III again this season , also didn't hold back her feelings about the tip in an interview during the episode. "F--k my f--king life. I honestly think I'm about to burst into tears. I'm not OK right now," the chief stew said. "They could've tipped us 30 grand, 40 grand, 50 grand. No money in the world would make me happy to work for people like that. I just don't think people like that deserve nice things."

Ever the optimist, Captain Glenn reminded the crew to be thankful that they received something and not let it get them down with many more charters to go this season. "It's still better than a poke in the eye with a pointy stick," he told the yachties. "It's a reflection on them, and, you know, regardless of this tip, I think we had a great start to our season."

Captain Glenn had perhaps a less diplomatic take on the tip when he appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on April 25. Host Andy Cohen read one fan's question for the Below Deck Sailing Yacht boss: "Glenn, did you buy charter guest Erica's public apology on social media for leaving y'all a bad tip, or was it an intentional slight?"

"I think it was an intentional slight," Captain Glenn replied. "They probably felt some of the stuff said online after their first charter [in Season 2] wasn't cool, and they decided that they were gonna come back. And I think they decided at the beginning they weren't gonna give us a good tip."

Though we found out on WWHL last month that the white couch Erica's mom, Cindi Rose, got self-tanner all over is looking good as new these days , it's going to take a while for the Parsifal III yachties to scrub their memories of this charter. Daisy recalled this group of charter guests being "pretty awful" during that appearance on WWHL in March and said that receiving the low tip "was an interesting experience."

Colin MacRae also won't soon forget Erica's charter group. "It was one of the more unpleasant charters we did," he told The Daily Dish earlier this season. "That charter with Erica Rose was f--king horrendous. And they came on just so disrespectful. I felt really bad for Daisy. It was awful. And Erica's husband is not a very nice human being, in my opinion."

The chief engineer added how disappointed he was to hear the harsh criticism of Marcos' cooking from Erica's husband. "He's the best chef I've ever worked with in 14 years on super yachts, and I've worked with some really top-quality chefs," Colin said. "So, yeah, what Erica's husband was saying about his food was just outrageous."

Exclusive: Erica Rose defends husband Charles Sanders amid Below Deck Sailing Yacht backlash

Erica Rose has defended her husband, Charles Sanders, aka Chuck, amid all the Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 3 backlash.

There’s no question Erica and Chuck have brought a lot of drama to Below Deck Sailing Yacht. Chief stew Daisy Kelliher hasn’t held back expressing her opinion of the group on and off-screen.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht charter guest Erica Rose defends Chuck amid backlash

Chuck has earned a lot of backlash for his behavior on Below Deck Sailing Yacht, especially his gross food rant and bashing of chef Marcos Spaziani. Erica admitted the personal attacks on her and Chuck have been hard for her, but he has not been fazed about it.

“He has a really thick skin, and I’m protective over him. I really love him,” she expressed. “I’ve got these negative comments about him, on my own personal Instagram, people are messaging me and saying like, ‘Oh no, how could you be married to him? He’s so mean,'” she shared.

Erica explained Chuck was acting, or rather playing up, a character that the producers liked. While his behavior was giving the producers what they wanted, she clarified that nothing Chuck did was scripted.

“He said he was acting. He was a theater major in college and he was just having fun. It was not scripted, and no one handed him a script. No one told him to do or say anything,” she stated.

Like on Season 2, Erica, Chuck, and their group met with producers where they were told “all types of stuff.” One thing they were encouraged to do was share complaints if any arose.

She feels Chuck got caught up in the reality TV of it all, as some people do when they are first on a reality TV show.

“I think he was getting caught up in it. I do think that when cameras are around, people’s personalities get amplified and especially when for the first time,” Erica said. “He felt like it was his job, even though we aren’t paid to be there. But in the moment, he felt like it was his job to be as entertaining and over-the-top.”

Erica explained Chuck was more of himself on the first night. As for the next morning with the omelette, she revealed he would not act like that in real life. Chuck would have eaten it, unless there were tomatoes on the omelette because he hates tomatoes.

What else does Erica want Below Deck Sailing Yacht fans to know about Chuck and their charter?

Aside from defending her husband, Erica also shared Chuck’s behavioral moments were far from the only moments that occurred on their charter.

“There were happy moments that weren’t shown like when he bought a bottle of Scotch and was just drinking it with the crew and having fun,” she recalled.

Speaking of having fun, Erica spilled Gabriela Barragan led a yoga class one day. Erica called it a beautiful moment for her group.

Along with getting to know Gabriela, Erica revealed that her group got to know Gary King, Captain Glenn Shephard, and Colin MacRae better than on her previous charter.

Despite the criticism, Erica shared she wants people to know that Chuck’s screen time was “not an accurate portrayal of who he is.” As for Chuck, he’s just happy he was able to entertain audiences.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht airs Mondays at 8/7c on Bravo.

I guess Chuck’s “acting” explains their gross tip as well?

Did everyone see Chuckie taking money out of the case on the table? It looked like he was stealing part of the tip.

Totally! Chuck was playing the role of DOUCHEBAG

There is nothing she could ever say to explain away his behavior. They are a miserable group and I hope they never are on TV again. They should be embarrassed. And that tip just shows what little class they have and what little respect they have for people that work in the service industry.

They are both disgusting and vile. I hope their law practice suffers because of their behavior on this show. Horrid people.

When will the crew receive the rest of their tip???

Tonight’s episode had several gross moments. I was mortified by the mom never acknowledging that she made a disgusting mess all over the couch, then denied it, and had the balls to say everyone else had to pay for it. So classless. And Erica was so rude and two faced. I fell over when she mentioned how dramatic her friends were on the last season when it was her creating the drama. And I also think it’s embarrassing she hasn’t addressed the tip yet. That was horrific. Hopefully they’re banned from Below Deck and any yacht moving forward. I sincerely hope her hair stylist ditched her.

“I’ve never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.” Clarence Darrow

Vile, vile disgusting people. Slobs all the way around. Who in the hell puts bronzer on their legs and then sits on a white couch and then denies it was her? The crew went over and above for this obnoxious group and the tip they left was insulting. They should be ashamed. I sincerely hope they are never allowed to rent a super yacht again. It is obvious they have no class and do not know how to be decent to people. Shameless. Just shameless.

That wasn’t entertaining, it was a complete lack of character.

Don’t quit your day job Chuckie. Hopefully this will give your clients reason to pause. Honestly, if I saw my attorney behaving like this, I’d drop him! There are plenty of well behaved qualified attorneys out there who don’t need to go on reality shows to stroke their fragile egos!

They are horrid people and have no business on a super yacht. In Chuckle’s world he left a MacDonalds tip cheap ahole

And the reason for the insulting tip? They should be banished to bus travel and fast food.

I have not seen the latest episode so I don’t know what the tip was. Sounds like it was pretty bad. I knew it was gonna be bad when the moron said he was going to reduce the tip every time he was unhappy. That being said, maybe they need the $$ more then the staff. Mom didn’t even fly first class.

If you can’t afford to tip don’t pretend to afford the experience. Playing to the cameras doesn’t mean one has to be a prick.

If they can’t afford the tip, they can’t afford the trip. That’s certainly no excuse in my book…nor in the book if any hard working service industry professional.

I was physically repulsed looking and listening to Erica, her husband, and her mother. Like truly got the willys. Their personalities were schizophrenic, obnoxious and devoid of any redeeming qualities. And its always someone else’s fault. And the amount of sub par plastic surgery in the last year was comedic. Just say No! Can you imagine the filth in their house? Makes ya want to run right over for a meal of creamed spinach and e coli. Full time housekeepers for sure just to pick up after the adults. But no chef necessary cause Momma’s cooking Spaghettios for dinner.

bottom line, acting or not.. douchbag and i dont believe the drinking with the crew… hes not a nice person… you dont act like that, especially on camera… and i hope his business whatever he does fails, along with her.. you dont treat people that way

So screwing the crew out of decent tip was, “acting”? Yup, that a jerk!

He jumped to the front of the line of assholes on TV really fast….I’m with the cook. Beat his a** down. Lawyer or not. I would have been locked up as well….I’ve never seen anything like him. No less on a channel that’s already full of people who have little regards for others…I would love to see their business suffer so they can no longer charter anything….not even a rickshaw…..just maybe a damaged old hot air balloon….wishful thinking….

Remember her mother falling face first in the water and all she was concerned about was her phone? Horrible people.

Or when she asked her guests not to fight because “that happened last time and it wasn’t for me.” 100% self-absorbed.

Your husband is a huge douche. Oh and way to leave the sh**tiest tip I have ever seen on the show…

Was their ridiculously low tip part of the act too? “Chuck” should give up acting and Erica should get her head out of the clouds.

That’s all well and good, but what about the bull $#!+ tip he left for the crew? Was that acting too? She can defend her husband all she wants, but his actions show he’s an @$$hole to the core! His “acting” cost people real income.

They are not working for tips. They are working on contract for a television production company.

Does anyone remember how Erica acted on the Bachelor? Her and Chuckles are two peas in a pod. The lousy tip was disgusting.

It’s hard to believe that anyone believes it was real. As for the tip – don’t you realize that these so called yachties are paid to appear on the show? Do you really believe they’re on television, working for TIPS??? Open your eyes.

I do not feel sorry for you – you chose to stay with that douche bag. You could have stood up to him and told him STFU and get some manners. As to “acting” tell it to the hand – he is just plain rude – he is definitely no actor – just low class, no manners.

1. NoONE believes that was an act – just normal low class, no manners on his part. 2. You are no better than he is by not telling him to STFU. 3. He sure did take tip money from what was given for the group from everything I’m reading – he attempted to screw the other couple who left early & gave him their tip money. 4. LOW class – left mess on sofa and then lied about it – fake tan is very bad. I guess maybe they gave the other couple’s money for the couch??? Tr__hbags! Please DO NOT EVER COME BACK ON HERE – WE DO NOT WANT TO SEE YOU!@!!
