How is Gael Cameron navigating her pregnancy? With a hefty dose of humor.
It was nearly two months ago when the Below Deck Mediterranean yachtie announced she was expecting her first child with Nathan Gallagher. Since then, the deckhand has shared frequent updates on her experience, documenting everything from her growing baby bump and ultrasound appointments to pregnancy cravings and clothing-related issues. Many of Gael’s posts had a sweet yet comedic tone, as she poked fun at common pregnancy struggles and online pregnancy trends, like the time-traveling transition reels.
Gael Cameron shares her pregnancy journey: “Can’t wait…”
“We’re in a place where we just want him out and can’t wait to see him,” she captioned a May 7 Instagram post, “but at the same time know weren’t not quite fully prepared yet and hope he brews for a while longer.”
Gael also jokingly compared herself to Humpty Dumpty and shared an amusing but very relatable video about her baby’s movement whenever she enjoys a sweet treat.
“Bub wants out, mum wants to breath [sic],” she wrote in a May 17 Reel, “but maybe just brew a little longer little one.”

Gael Cameron and Nathan Gallagher’s Relationship History
Gael and Nathan were introduced in Below Deck Mediterranean Season 9, when they joined the Mustique deckhand crew. The couple ended the charter season on a positive note and embarked on a travel adventure shortly after production wrapped; however, it wasn’t long before they ultimately called it quits, citing concerns over their communication and long distance. (Gael was primarily based in Australia, while Nathan lived in Ireland.)
“I just started second-guessing everything,” Nathan recalled on the Below Deck Mediterranean After Show. “The distance [was] difficult.”
Gael said she “knew something was up” when she hadn’t heard from Nathan for a couple of weeks.
“He just ghosted me,” she said. “And then eventually, I was like, ‘Dude, what’s going on? I’m worried something’s happened.’ And then he was like, ‘My ex has called me and I want to give it another go.’”
The couple eventually rekindled their romance in the summer of 2024 and have been going strong ever since.
