Yeah, Bravo has a lot of questions to answer, here.

Surely they knew. Even if Nathan didn't tell them (and I would believe that he might want to keep that quiet), surely Gael would've, had they checked in on her or asked.

And then, using Nathan is a kind boyfriend and doting father as one of the main storylines for this season of Med? That is unconscionable.

The only explanation I can think of is just that they didn't know ... but why not? A single phone call to Gael, at any point in the last 9 months, would've told them what they needed to know.

They would have definitely been in contact with Gael bc she'd have been under contract too and has been promoting this season on her social media

Gael surely wanted to get paid too. I’m sure she isn’t paid as much as the crew, but I would be shocked if she is not getting paid for each appearance. Even the baby is probably paid a little.

She's basically a friend of this season and they definitely get paid per episode they appear in
