There’s no doubt that Tumi is one of the breakout stars of Below Deck Down Under Season 1. Captain Jason Chambers can be added to that list.
Aesha Scott is, too, but fans already knew her from her Below Deck Med stint. Tumi remains close with her chief stew, even meeting up when Aesha was in New York a couple of weeks ago.
Below Deck Down Under Season 1 just hit Bravo airwaves since the show is a Peacock original.
Several cast members have been making the rounds on Watch What Happens Live to promote the show.
Chef Ryan McKeown took aim at Aesha and Hannah Ferrier when he chatted with host Andy Cohen. Tumi was on this past week, and her appearance brought out some trolls.
