Reality TV star Nathan Gallagher faces Australian arrest warrant over assault case

Australian police have issued a warrant for the arrest of Nathan Gallagher, 27, a cast member of "Below Deck Mediterranean," following a conviction for assault causing actual bodily harm, choking and common assault. The conviction was handed down by Burwood Local Court in New South Wales after a hearing on Tuesday, during which Gallagher did not appear.

The court heard that the alleged incident occurred in December 2025 at the couple’s family home, where Gallagher is accused of covering Cameron’s mouth and nose, applying pressure to her neck, and striking her jaw, actions that left her unable to breathe at times. Gael Cameron, 30, attended the hearing but declined to comment to reporters.

"He is known to frequent the Ermington and Melrose Park areas, and is believed to be offshore," NSW Police wrote in a Facebook post, urging anyone with information to call emergency services.

Judge Janine Lacy stated that the offenses were proven and that immigration records indicated Gallagher is currently overseas. Prosecutor Sergeant Aruzza also told the court that Gallagher is believed to be offshore.

Gallagher later issued a statement saying he acknowledges making mistakes and will take responsibility, but he disputes being portrayed solely through one side of the relationship. He claimed to have video footage, messages and other records that provide additional context, and mentioned other undisclosed matters related to their breakup and financial issues.

The couple met while filming the ninth season of the series in 2024 and share a one-year-old son, Kayden. According to reports, Gallagher will not appear in the upcoming season of the show, although his previously filmed scenes will remain in the current season airing on Bravo.
