On a recent episode of Below Deck Sailing Yacht, Gabriela Barragan made a tearful confession to her nemesis, Ashley Marti, and she shared that she wanted to quit.
In response, Ashley promised to keep the secret. The very next day, though, the 24-year-old played a game of telephone and went straight to the ear of their boss – Daisy Kelliher.
As many fans know, the Gabriela/Ashley saga is ever-unfolding, and it features a war on social media as both castmates throw shade at each other.
In a recent video posted to Twitter, Gabriela responded to Ashley’s betrayal.
“Um, I am not surprised. I am disappointed that she twisted my words and made it seem like I was complaining. But I wasn’t, so cheers to that,” said Gabriela, as reported by Monsters & Critics.

Gabriela wasn’t the only one disappointed. Since the episode aired, numerous fans have tweeted their disapproval of Ashley.
“Ashley is just a spoiled brat who doesn’t know how to work well with others. Grow up and get over yourself,” wrote one viewer.
Another expressed, “Ashley is such a backstabber not sure what Gabriela was thinking when she confided in that girl.”

“Ashley is a little passive aggressive opportunist,” wrote another. “Gabriella opened up and was vulnerable and Ashley is twisting that to try and turn the whole boat against her.”

Some fans pointed out the love square between Daisy, Ashley, Gabriela, and Gary King, suggesting jealousy is a hidden factor of the feud. Another user slammed Ashley as a “mean girl.”

A different viewer hinted at Ashley’s immaturity.

The award for Deepest Insult, however, may belong to a fan who mentioned a past villain, Jenna MacGillivray.
I’d rather see Jenna come back than to have Ashley back next season 😳#BelowDeckSailingYacht #belowdecksailing #BelowDeck pic.twitter.com/z9ihk61gW2

Despite Gabriela’s efforts, Ashley seems allergic to the idea of a truce. As the season continues, more battles are likely to arise — both on and off the Bravo airwaves.
