Below Deck Sailing Yacht: What Happened To Georgia Grobler After Season 1

Georgia Grobler seems to have moved on from her career in yachting since appearing on Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 1. During her time on the show, Georgia worked as the third stew alongside second stew Madison Stalker and chief stew Jenna Macgillivray. In the beginning, Georgia felt like a fish out of water considering that she had very little experience in the yachting world prior to Below Deck. Even though Jenna was a bit hard on her at first, she had Madison to keep her from quitting.

As Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 1 went on, Georgia found her groove and became a master in the laundry room. She even developed a close working relationship with her chief stew, despite Madison’s hatred towards her. Georgia even had a small crush on first mate Paget Berry. However, Paget happened to be in a relationship with deckhand Ciara Duggan, who ended her engagement with Paget in 2021. Nonetheless, Georgia never acted on those feelings and kept her friendship with Paget as platonic as it could be.

After wrapping BDSY season 1, Georgia mainly stayed out of the spotlight. According to Georgia’s Instagram, she has been dabbling in the modeling world for the last year. The former third stew’s most recent post on Instagram was shared on August 16 (included below). The image shows Georgia on a beach in a white bikini while posing for the cameras. In the post, she tagged professional photographer @dreambeachstudiocpt, who is based in Cape Town and seems to work with Georgia pretty often. Georgia also loves to sing and shares videos of her music on her YouTube channel. In turn, Georgia, who worked with chef Adam Glick from season 1, hasn’t posted anything new in over four months. Other than modeling and singing, it seems like the former reality star has chosen to put her yachting career behind her. Besides her work, Georgia was back in the Below Deck chatter after Mzi Dempers from Below Deck Mediterranean revealed that they knew each other.

Following the Below Deck Med season 6 premiere, new deckhand Mzi admitted that he hooked up with Georgia a few times in the past. During an interview with CheatSheet, Mzi revealed that he and Georgia began their friendship after they met in 2017. “I wouldn’t say it was necessarily dating, but it was like hooking up every now and then over a period of time,” Below Deck Med season 6 star Mzi said of their relationship. Despite both of them having careers in yachting, the pair met while on land in South Africa. They met after a friend invited Georgia as Mzi’s date to a formal dinner, a tradition that is popular in South Africa. Interestingly enough, they didn’t speak much before he joined the show. However, they did reconnect after he returned from filming. Mzi revealed that he and Georgia bonded over comparing notes regarding their experiences in the Below Deck franchise.

Since leaving Below Deck Sailing Yacht behind, Georgia has seemingly left the yachting industry for good. For now, she’s been focusing on her career in modeling and music instead. As for a return to the yachting industry, it seems like Georgia is doing just fine with her current career path.
