Below Deck Spoilers – Kyle Viljoen Stirs The Pot

Tumi Mhlongo had to delay taking on her duties on Below Deck Med this season. And so that left Natalya Scudder with a temporary promotion. However, problems arose when Tumi arrived, demoting Natalya. And Kyle Viljoen, also delayed, didn’t help because he kept siding with first Tumi, then Natalya.

However, Tumi shared her views about Kyle’s role in her feud with Natalya. And she did so during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, according to Yahoo. Tumi shared that she wished that she had not discussed Natalya with Kyle.

But the chief stew also believes that Viljoen played his own part in making the situation worse. And viewers felt that Kyle “seemed to pit” Natalya and Tumi against each other. “A hundred percent,” agreed Tumi.

Below Deck Spoilers – Tumi Mhlongo Drops Bombshell

But then Tumi dropped a bombshell. Watch What Happens Live host Andy Cohen questioned how the chief stew felt when she saw Kyle go back and forth “transferring information to Natalya. Your reaction was what?” Cohen questioned.

And Tumi dropped a bombshell. “Kyle just wanted my job, though. There’s nothing that Kyle wanted more than to be chief stew. So, he was going to do anything in his power to make it uncomfortable, and that’s the truth.”

However, fans wanted to know if Kyle would ever confess that he wanted to become chief stew. And she hinted, “Maybe one day.” But the interaction left fans shocked for several reasons.

First, if Kyle wants Tumi’s job, stirring up trouble between her and Natalya could make Captain Sandy question Tumi’s ability as a leader. And second, becoming chief stew requires getting respect from the crew. With all those revelations about Kyle stirring up trouble, did he hurt his reputation?

However, Kyle also has appeared on Watch What Happens Live. And he insisted that he never tried or wanted to stir the pot. Kyle also insisted that he didn’t expect his separate confidences with Tumi and Natalya to cause so much drama.

But spoilers for Below Deck Med reveal Captain Sandy indicating that just one individual causes much of the conflict on board. Could she have meant Kyle? And Natalya also dropped a clue, hinting that she didn’t want to work with Kyle again at one point.
