‘Below Deck Sailing Yacht’ ends with 2 new babies

Dore’s pregnancy is the second baby to come after Below Deck Sailing Yacht Season 2. Soares announced she was pregnant mid-season after fans shared photos of her at work with a visible baby bump. While she wished she could have shared the news when she was ready, she kept some details private. In addition to the baby’s gender and name, she also did not share who was the child’s father.

However, she and Jean-Luc Cerza-Lanaux had a steamy boatmance and left the sailing yacht together at the end of the season. Cerza-Lanaux recently shared two controversial posts questioning if he is the child’s father, which was met with harsh remarks from the crew, including Dore. The majority of the cast believes Cerza-Lanaux is the child’s father and wants him to step up instead of ruminating on Instagram.

Colin Macrae told Cerza-Lanaux to keep his comments off of social media and Dore agreed. “I agree with @parlayrevival_colin keep it off social media and speak with Dani!” Dore wrote. “This has gone way too far! There is a tiny living being in all of this, with a stressed out Mum doing her very best, this has to be enough now! You know this post isn’t addressing anything that needs to be. I also wish you would have replied to my dms! Doing this publicly feels so wrong.”
