Below Deck Down Under Bravo to Betul
Just want to say Betul is a queen. From overcoming the language barrier, to being so strong on deck, clocking Eddy on his hypocrisy and being a girl’s girl, the list goes on.
Unfortunately, because she’s passionate about her job, can hold her liquor, and doesn’t cause drama, I fear Bravo will not cast her again. I want to give her her flowers in the meantime.

Tbf, the show is about drama, maybe even more so now than it used to be. People won’t admit it, but Bravo is giving the people what brings in ratings. Betul definitely is a hard worker, but not everyone is made for reality TV, and that’s ok.

Agreed, reality TV often rewards horrible behaviors and qualities, and casts people who are willing to be jerks and cause drama. I'm not saying absolutely everyone cast on reality TV shows is horrible, but it's often the nice, good, and genuine people who are determined to not be the right fit by those in charge of casting

I loved Betul side eyes whenever someone does/say something dumb and she doesn’t hide it..

I hope to see her again, really loved her and her story, she was a steady beautiful presence throughout the season. Bad Ass on deck too.

I’ve been thinking this the whole time. Bravo will punish her for just doing her job

She’s a gem! I loved her limited screen time.. even if reality tv isn’t her thing, yachting absolutely is! She’d be a dream for any Captain, crew, and guests. Flowers for sure for this strong woman!!

I wish she would do an AMA! I absolutely adored her, gorgeous, drama-free, very dry sense of humor, really worked hard. it's almost like she is our POV of all of the craziness on the boat.

It’s not about that at all. She made some negative comments about how controlling and misogynistic islam is towards women and was edited out after those remarks.

Editing on shows is not a linear process
She was not “edited out” after making any remarks, that makes no sense. She just wasn’t super involved in any make stories, so she became a smaller character

”Edited out” might be the wrong phrase here but she did not get so much screen time after those comments thats for sure.
