Arrest warrant issued for Below Deck star Nathan Gallagher

Australian police have released a mugshot of Nathan Gallagher, a cast member of the reality series Below Deck Mediterranean, confirming that a warrant was issued for his arrest after he failed to appear in court on September 1. Gallagher had been granted conditional bail in late December following his arrest on December 27 on domestic-violence allegations involving a 29-year-old woman.

The charges include assault occasioning actual bodily harm, intentionally choking a person without consent and common assault. Court documents identify the alleged victim as former Below Deck Med crew member Gael Cameron, with whom Gallagher shares a child. The police report describes Gallagher covering Cameron’s mouth and nose, applying pressure to her neck, and striking her jaw, actions that allegedly left her unable to breathe at times.

Gallagher deactivated his Instagram account after the news broke. In a statement to Rolling Stone on August 27, he acknowledged making mistakes and said he would take responsibility, but added that public reports represent only one side of a “complicated situation.”

Bravo and Cameron have not responded to requests for comment. Gallagher continues to appear in season 11 of Below Deck Med, while season 12 is currently in production.
