Meet Ryan McKeown, Chef On Below Deck: Down Under

Ryan Mckeown signed up as the chef in Peacock’s new spin-off Below Deck: Down Under.

Joining him on the cruise are Captain Jason Chambers, chief stew Aesha Scott, second stew Tumi Mhlongo, third stew Magda Ziomek, bosun Jamie Sayed, deckhand Culver Bradbury, female deckhand Brittni Burton, and Ben Crawley, the final member of the deck team on the superyacht M/Y Thalassa.

The crew is ready to set sail around the breathtaking Whitsunday Islands and Great Barrier Reef.

The show has show premiered and the crew members are already having problems with Chef Ryan, especially chief stew Aesha Scott. Aesha spoke with US Weekly and revealed, “If arrogant was, like, personified, it would be Ryan. He’s a very arrogant man”.

She added further, “I think that that’s something that everyone — not just as a chef — it’s kind of difficult to be around anyone arrogant.” Aesha has been working in the industry for so long that she knows every chef to some extent is “a difficult toddler”. In confessional Aesha says, “He doesn’t ask, he’s just f*cking pigheaded. Ugh, it frustrates me.”

Ryan counters, “It’s not my job to know what the guests are doing. You can’t tell me when the guests are sitting, ‘Okay, they’re ready for dinner, and expect me to start. You know, I have to build up to that point. There is no respect for what I’m doing in the galley.”

Captain Jason also shared that Ryan likes to “stir up drama” but complimented his skills as a chef.

Viewers also didn’t hold back to discuss Chef Ryan on Twitter. One fan wrote, “[Twenty] minutes into Below Deck: Down Under and I can already tell the chef is going to be a problem this season”. Another fan wrote, “Hey Ryan, if you can’t get along w Aesha, you’re really in sad shape”.

Another viewer added on Twitter, “Ryan is a nightmare. a NIGHTMARE. why would you plate before you know guests are seated? and you’re there to give the guests what they want. their food schedule is not too much to ask. horrible person”.

In Mid-February 2022, Ryan announced, “Watch Me Live On Below Deck Down Under March 17th Only On @peacocktv“.
