Ben Willoughby hinted that he has a new girlfriend and confirmed that she’s a crew member who appeared on a previous season of Below Deck.

Bosun Ben Willoughby and deckhand Sunny Marquis had a boatmance on Below Deck Season 11 and discussed their plans to stay together after the show.

After enduring a rocky relationship on the St. David, the two went their separate ways but still remained friends and supported one another.

During an Instagram Q&A with Below Deck fans, Ben revealed his own relationship status when someone asked if he was single.

“No, sorry,” he responded, sharing a selfie with his mystery girlfriend and covering her face with an emoji.

When a different fan asked, “And are you dating someone who’s been on Below Deck,” Ben said yes and posted another dark-lit photo of the new couple sitting together enjoying the sunset.
