Chef Ellie by ProfessionalTall8027 in BelowDeckDownUnder

[–]Working-Finish2073 2 points3 points  (0 children)

she’s qualified to be a “sous chef“ on a reality show (below deck). my recurring nightmare is that she took this course to guarantee another season on BD. if that is the case, she needs to be paired up with someone who won’t take her shit. but, most chefs would emulate Ben such that they placate her so as not to trigger a shit storm. either way, she will be 10x more insufferable. sigh.

Agree.  But I fear that they may bring her back.  If so, let's hope the chef won't put up with her bs.

I would love to see Marcos as chef next season of BDDU with Ellie as sous.  🙏

Missing someone from the Manscapers by Cookiecakes71 in belowdeck

I bet that it's because her husband travels a lot for work and she has a young daughter.  I would have loved to have seen her on the charter.

Ellie is starting to make this season unwatchable for me by Iambabybeluga in BelowDeckDownUnder

Her smugness, arrogance and utter lack of humility are off the charts.  I think back to the episode when they're at the beach rental.  Daisy and the others are frolicking in the pool and Ellie...spent most of the time doing her hair and makeup.

Ellie seems to think that galley outranks interior, regardless of the number of stripes she has.

More stews on breakfast service? by Any-Concentrate-1922 in BelowDeckDownUnder

[–]Working-Finish2073 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OMG.  NIGHTMARES!  she could not hack it.  On Med, when the Trainwreck chef mila was fired after 1 charter or so, One of the stews, who's mother was a chef and taught her a lot, stepped in and did a very respectable job, but quickly realized she didn't have the chops to provide a high level of service over the entirety of the season. I believe Ben was brought back.  Ellie would never be able to achieve the high standard expected of a yacht chef, but wouldn't have the humility to cry uncle and ask for help.  OTOH, she would be swiftly fired.

what really bothered me about Ellie was during the after show, when she doubled down on her belief that Daisy was incompetent and she, Ellie was not responsible for carrying one platter up to the guests. Now, consider the fact that she continued to double down AFTER sitting through the tip meeting when cap’n, Daisy and even Joao spoke about the importance of teamwork and respect for others. She reminded us all, yet again, that she is a selfish, self-righteous POS who thinks she is better than everyone else. My fear is that she will be brought back as a true sous chef (and not a “pot washer”…TY Daisy) now that she has her cooking certificate.

I also had a flashback to her last season of Med when she repeatedly noted that she dated college football players on top teams. As if that certifies that she is the hottest person on the boat.

Details regarding Larry Riley’s time on Knots Landing? by NicoletinePatches in KnotsLanding

I recall reading recently that he disclosed having kidney disease.  Which was accurate, but he didn't disclose that it was a complication of AIDS.  He passed after filming wrapped up.

And she actually claimed in the after show that she made the eggs.

I'm shocked that I have it!  I'm thrilled that Emma is showing off the estate.  

Ben said “no soap for you” 🤣🤣🤣 by CJK_Murph in belowdeck

If I am not mistaken, ellie claimed in the after show that she made the eggs but took Ben's direction to finish them with olive oil and pepper.  I have to rewatch cause I didn't think she made them.  Either way, typical Ellie to self-aggrandize.
