Natalya talks about the possibility of leaving with Captain Sandy on ‘Below Deck Med.’

After the phone call with her boyfriend, Natalya talks about what’s happening with Captain Sandy, and how she’s not in a good place.

“I just don’t think mentally I’m doing well on the boat,” Natalya admits to Captain Sandy.

Captain Sandy shows her nothing but sympathy and sorrow for what’s happening to Natalya, especially because of Natalya’s cheating boyfriend.

“I love having you on board, I don’t want you to leave,” Captain Sandy states.

From the looks of it, it may no longer just be Tumi and Natalya’s boyfriend that makes her want to leave. She appears to get into an argument with fellow stew Kyle Viljoen, who calls her a fake-a** b***h.

Does Natalya stay with her boyfriend after expressing her interest to leave ‘Below Deck Med’?

Currently, audiences have no idea if Natalya stays with her boyfriend after the devastating phone call. She tells him how he made her feel bad for being intimate with Luca, and calls him a “f*****g liar.”

Luca, in the meantime, gives her space after their intimate moment in bed and is not looking to ruin anything Natalya has with her boyfriend.

“I can definitely see that this is affecting Natalya quite a lot,” says Luca.

“In this situation, I’m just going to respect her boundaries. She says that this is the love of her life. I’m not going to get in the way of that.”

The two of them interact again when she needs help fixing her bra, but nothing intimate happens between them during the rest of their encounter.

“Even though I’m trying to keep my distance from Luka, he’s still the person I confide in at the end of the day. The only difference is I might have to put on a chastity belt,” Natalya jokes.

As far as fans know, Natalya leaves the chastity belt on after she finds out her boyfriend slept with a woman he met at a club in Thailand, but she could take it off later on in the season — that is, if she decides to stay.
