Below Deck’s Nathan Gallagher Convicted of Domestic Violence After Failing to Appear in Court

Police say Gallagher fled before his court date, and Judge Janine Lacy convicted him in absentia and issued a warrant.

  • On Tuesday, Burwood Local Court Judge Janine Lacy convicted Below Deck Mediterranean star Nathan Gallagher of domestic violence in his absence and issued an arrest warrant.
  • Charges include assault occasioning actual bodily harm and choking without consent against his partner and Below Deck co-star, Gael Cameron, with police alleging the assault occurred last December at a Melrose Park unit block.
  • In her ruling, Lacy stated that while Gallagher lacks prior criminal history, "the offences are very serious, with significant maximum penalties, and context of DV committed in the home."
  • Gallagher is now wanted in two jurisdictions, including his native Ireland for an alleged 2022 assault in Donegal, with immigration authorities confirming he is currently offshore.
  • Although he pledged to take responsibility in comments to Rolling Stone, Gallagher failed to provide his claimed evidence or appear in court to contest the charges.
