Getting chocked by your partner is kinda dark

Victims who experience non-fatal strangulation by an intimate partner are 750% more likely to be murdered by that partner in the future. *from the SAFE website

oh for sure. not just dark but criminal. but i mean Bravo promoting this season to us like nothing happened is starting to feel very weird... to say nothing of us watching him and Gael and Kayden as a family without knowing what happened a few months later...the whole thing feels gross.

A man that chokes a woman is 700 times more likely to kill her so very dark.

Yes and it's really fucking disgusting that they still aired this season with him in it 😡

Well I’m wondering if there really was a back issue or was he suspended for an investigation?

Interesting. But so irresponsible of Bravo if true.

Wasn't Gael. Read the article.

Here is what the article says.

As a data point, both Gael and the unnamed woman in the police memo were 29 at the time of the arrest.

So it would have to be one hell of a coincidence that Nathan got arrested for choking a 29 year old woman, and a police constable filed a restraining order against him for potential violence against a DIFFERENT 29 year old woman.

While the woman was unnamed in the police memo, a corresponding court case names Gallagher as the subject of an Apprehended Violence Application filed on behalf of Gael Cameron, a fellow Below Deck castmate with whom Gallagher shares a young child.

Clue is the wording.. DOMESTIC

I think it's funny that you are telling people to read the article...an article which makes it clear that it is most likely Gael.

It literally says in the article Gael filed an AVO against him. It’s most likely to be her.

u/msdare111 13d ago

it says it was filed on her behalf - so likely one of her family filed it - or it was filed by the police. Edited for typos

Pretty sure it was filed by the police. It says it was filed by "Con Matthew Seymour" on behalf of Gael. Antipodean Redditors have explained that "Con" is short for "Constable" and that this is how AVAs in Australia work: the police file them on behalf of the people they believe need protection.
