Are Malia White and Tom Checketts Still Together After Below Deck Mediterranean Season 5?

Malia White and Tom Checketts were dating during Below deck, the Mediterranean Sea season 5 but did they stay together after the show ended? The Bravo series set in the Mediterranean became the world’s first spin-off Below decks franchise in May 2016. Sandy Yawn joined the crew during the second season, replaces the now deceased captain Mark Howard and has remained captain of the show ever since. Others worth noting Deck Med alums include Hannah Ferrier, who served as Chief Stew until season 5, when she was fired for having a vape pen and over-the-counter Valium on a superyacht.

Captain Sandy hosted the fifth season of the show and kicked the main stew, much to the dismay of the audience. In addition to the drama surrounding Hannah, Malia made franchise history as the first woman to become a Below decks Boatswain. He joined the cast Deck Med in season 2 as a deckhand and was asked to return in seasons 5 and 6 where he worked as the manager of the outdoor department. Unfortunately, Malia’s time on the show is overshadowed by Hannah’s firing and her relationship with season 5 Chef Tom.but are they still together?

Malia and Tom broke up after the reunion

Bosun claimed that he cheated on her

Malia and Tom broke up after that Deck Med season 5 reunion. However, at first it was unclear what happened between the Bosun and the chef he revealed in season 6 that he had been unfaithful. In an interview in August 2021 Us WeeklyMalia said she learned that Tom “found someone else in his boats” when they were working apart at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Bosun revealed that he “didn’t know for a couple of months“that he cheated on her and found out”through a friend.”

– In retrospect, I probably wouldn’t have liked him coming to the show.

Once Malia found out that Tom cheated on her,all hell broke loose.” He rightfully felt betrayed by his former partner, whom he trusted. Working on a yacht can be difficult, especially for married yachtsmen. It’s normal to keep distance between partners when partners work on different boats, but it’s not right for cheating to happen. Fortunately for Malia, she has moved on from her relationship with Tom.

Malia started dating someone new, but they broke up

Malia and Jake the Engineer broke up before he left for the winter house

After her breakup with chef Tom, Malia dated Jake Baker, aka Jake Deck Med season 6. He appeared in the season six premiere, but remained off-camera for the rest of the season – as did her romance with Bosun. Malia and Jake’s budding romance was not featured on the reality show, and news of their relationship shocked viewers. Nevertheless, they dated for a while until it was revealed when he joined the cast Winter house season 3 in 2023 that they had gone their separate ways.

Tom’s dating life is unknown

The chef lives a private life

Although she starred in a reality TV show, Tom’s life is private these days. His Instagram account, which has more than 26,000 followers, is private, suggesting he doesn’t want to be in the spotlight after one season-long streak. Tom hasn’t returned Below decks franchise since the fifth season of the Mediterranean spin-off, and it would be shocking if he were cast in the future. He joined Deck Med season 5 due to his relationship with Malia, and he too has since left the series.

Will Malia and Tom ever get back together?

They are unlikely to rekindle their romance

Malia and Tom will probably never get back together. In an interview he gave in August 2021 Us Weeklyhe admitted that the cook was “apologetic” and “very sorry“of his infidelity and that he”wanted(ed) to get back with me”, at the time, but their relationship was simply “no (to him)” any more. Despite his attempts to win Bosu back, Tom and Malia did not start dating after their breakup.

He was hurt by her disloyalty and had no room to win her back. Malia moved on after their relationship, and although she has since broken up with Jake, she is unlikely to date Tom again. Malia and chef Tom broke up Deck Med season 5 reunion. Bosun cited the chef’s disloyalty as the reason for the resignation. After their relationship, Malia dated another yachtie, though they also recently broke up before he showed up Winter house season 3
