Solène Favreau’s recent hookup with another Below Deck crew member isn’t sitting well with Kyle Stillie. In the above first look for Season 12, Episode 7 (set to air July 14), Kyle is left seemingly heartbroken by his crush’s new connection with Jess Theron, who Solène kissed in Episode 6.
“It’s not my day,” Kyle tells his bunkmate, Damo Yorg, in the video above after seeing Solène and Jess flirting. “I’m having a sook as [Captain Kerry Titheradge] would say.”
When Damo asks why Kyle is upset, he tells the deckhand there’s “no reason” for his “depressed” state. However, Kyle — who spent a night with Solène in a guest cabin during Episode 5 — opens up about the true reason behind his bad mood in a confessional.
“I wear my heart on my sleeve, and I mean if I’m in, I’m in,” he tells the camera. “But, Jess and Solène have got their thing. I can recognize that, but Solène’s still kissing me in bathrooms and whatnot.”
Then, the video flashes back to a clip from the day prior, showing Kyle kissing Solène on the yacht deck.
“It’s not a nice situation to be a part of,” Kyle adds in the confessional. “Solène’s toying with people’s emotions. I definitely don’t think she’s bothered about how she makes other people feel. She’s quite selfish and, yeah, I’m a bit hurt.”
Inside Solène Favreau’s love triangle with Kyle Stillie and Jess Theron
In Episode 6, Solène set the record straight about her feelings for Kyle. Although she likes the deckhand, aka “Scottish,” she told cameras that he’d become a little too clingy for her taste.
“I’m not with Scottish, but Scottish started to like me, like, a lot. And me, I’m not in the same way,” Solène explained in a confessional. “So, I need to take my distance because I don’t want to hurt him. This is my life. Always.”

During a crew night out on Saint Martin, Solène ended up pulling Jess into a bathroom for a surprise make-out session.
“If you want to keep that secret, I’m OK with it,” Solène told Jess after the kiss, to which Jess responded, “Stillie’s gonna f–king kill me.”
As the unlikely pair exited the bathroom holding hands, Solène added, “I don’t care! It’s life.” Then, they continued their PDA in front of everybody — including Kyle.
Kyle was hurt, calling Solène “a f–king devil” while talking to himself in the bathroom. The next day, he reflected on his heartbreak in a confessional.
“With Solène, she’s entitled to her own prerogative, but nobody likes getting rejected… It’s not a nice thing,” he explained. “I mean, I maybe don’t help because I don’t speak how I feel to people. I’m very much, I let people do what they want to do. And I did this last year with [Barbara “Barbie” Pascual]. I’m just a bit of a f–king sap. Yeah, I just feel a bit stupid. I feel really stupid.”

Kyle and Solène shared their first kiss in Episode 4 after a fun-filled night with their crewmates. The day after their steamy smooch, Kyle revealed in an interview that he was very interested in Solène.
“Solène could almost certainly break my heart,” he declared. “I never learn!”
In the next episode, the pair departed St. David for a romantic date. After they had dinner, the two crew members snuck into the primary guest cabin, where they spent the night together.
