At the start of “Below Deck” Season 2, Ben Robinson and Kate Chastain were far from friends and were often embroiled in arguments and misunderstandings. However, as the series progressed into Season 3, the former Eros crew members admitted that their electric chemistry resulted in them hooking up. “We hooked up a few times,” Robinson revealed to cast mate Rocky Dakota in Episode 11 of Season 3. The chef added that while they got to know each other on “a personal level,” they wouldn’t “compliment each other that well” in a relationship. Chastain seemingly agreed while discussing their hook-up with stew Amy Johnson at the time. She even compared their chemistry to cheesecake. “It’s really decadent, delicious, but you can’t eat it every day,” Chastain said in regard to Robinson. “We have a line now.”

While the pair have remained adamant that their relationship has never and will never exceed a hook-up label, their castmates have expressed different feelings, including the beloved “Below Deck” star Captain Lee Rosbach. Back in 2015, Rosbach told The Daily Dish that Robinson and Chastain would make a “great couple.” “Now, how long it might take them to admit to themselves and to each other that there might be something? That’s a horse of a different color,” he added.
