Unfortunately for fans of Below Deck, there will be no Season 4 reunion show featuring Kate Chastain, Ben Robinson, Kelley Johnson, Nico Scholly, Emily Warburton-Adams, Sierra Storm, Kyle Dixon, and Lauren Burchell. As the finale episode aired on Tuesday night, Kate confirmed via Twitter that there won’t be a reunion show.

Kate tweeted that there will sadly be no reunion this year but fans wanting to hear more of her sarcasm can buy her new book about yachting.

Many people left comments expressing disappointment that there won’t be a reunion show to watch. Several people directed their tweets to Andy Cohen in a bid to get the network to change its mind. One person accused Bravo of being cheap.

Yet it seems that Andy doesn’t have any say on whether the show gets a reunion show. On a recent Ask Andy segment, Andy was asked why there wasn’t a Season 1 reunion show for the spin-off Below Deck Mediterranean. Andy said that Bravo made that decision and he doesn’t know why. Andy admitted that a lot of people wanted a reunion show.

“I don’t know. That was a Bravo decision. I don’t know. People really wanted that reunion too. I got a lot of tweets about it.”

In response to Kate’s tweet, one person asked who she can write to at Bravo to try to get a reunion show.

Each of the past three seasons of the show had reunion shows hosted by Andy. The reunion shows for Seasons 1 and 2 took place in Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live clubhouse. Season 3’s reunion show was bigger and more professional, taking place in a yacht-themed set in Florida. Why isn’t there a Season 4 reunion show? Was there simply not enough drama this past season to warrant a reunion show? Did ratings for the show go down?

Last week, Kate tweeted that she doesn’t think that the cast is doing a reunion show this year. She implied that the reason for such was more a matter of scheduling more than anything else. Apparently, judging by her most recent tweet on the matter, Kate has since received confirmation since posting that tweet that she and the other cast members definitely won’t be flying anywhere to film a reunion show.

Since there is no Season 4 reunion show, this means that viewers won’t see Kate Chastain confront Ben Robinson about his behavior towards her during the crew’s last night out. The Below Deck finale episode showed Ben, seemingly drunk, saying very mean and rude comments to Kate after blaming her for his love interest, Emily Warburton-Adams, giving him a hard time.

Ben, who by that point had not only already worked alongside Kate for three charter seasons but also enjoyed a sexual fling with her between Seasons 2 and 3, outright told Kate that he doesn’t like working with her and that he “doesn’t give a f**k.”

“I don’t like working with you anymore. We’re better off as friends okay? That’s it…I’m pissed off that Ems just came and f**king completely grilled me about our relationship. “

A fed-up Kate told him that she doesn’t even like being around him and walked off. “Good,” Ben replied.

Ben is now sorry. He tweeted Kate an apology. Yet Kate apparently isn’t that impressed with Ben’s tweet apology. She re-tweeted Ben’s apology and noted that Ben didn’t apologize to her on-air nor did he even send her a text.

After the episode aired, Ben, alongside Emily, did a Facebook Live video in which he expressed remorse for how he behaved towards Kate. He admitted that they still haven’t patched things up so he probably needs to send her a really nice gift now.

“To be honest Kate and I will always be friends okay? When I said I didn’t want to work with her anymore or didn’t like working with her, to be honest a lot of that was true. I found it, I found working with her to be very difficult. I think when I formed a relationship with Emily, maybe it became even more difficult…As far as me and Kate go, I’m gonna be honest with you. We haven’t exactly patched it up you know but there can be some off-the-season reparation without the volatility of us bashing each other on social media and the television program Below Deck…so I’ll probably have to end up sending her a really nice gift and also Kate’s a wonderful person.”

As previously reported by the Inquisitr, Ben and Emily Warbuton-Adams are now in a relationship and have been doing Facebook Live videos together for the past few weeks.

In the video, Ben further told Kate that he does love her and will be there for her whenever she needs him.

“Kate if you are watching…I love her. I’ll always be with you. I’ll always be here for you.”

Ben also asked viewers to forgive him.

“I’m not a mean drunk. I’m actually a really nice guy. I was under a lot of stress and I was very, very tired. Please forgive me.”

Not only will fans not see Kate Chastain and Ben Robinson on a Below Deck reunion, but they also won’t see them on Below Deck Mediterranean Season 2. After the Below Deck Season 4 finale episode aired, Bravo revealed that Season 2 of the spin-off will air in 2017 and that it’ll feature Season 1’s chief stewardess Hannah Ferrier and deckhand Bobby Giancola as the two returning cast members.
