Below Deck Down Under star Tzarina says she was ‘naive’ about Lara, teases ‘bumpy’ and ‘lonely’ season

Chef Tzarina Mace-Ralph has thoughts on Chief Stew Lara Rigby as Below Deck Down Under Season 3 barrels right along.

The halfway point has arrived, which means things are about to get really bad between the two women.

Lara and Tzarina worked together before Below Deck Down Under Season 3 but have very different views on their friendship.

One might say that Tzarina thinks of Lara as a friend, while the latter doesn’t necessarily feel the same way about the chef.

Tzarina recently appeared on Another Below Deck Podcast to dish all things Below Deck Down Under.

It didn’t take long for the topic of Lara to be brought up, with the hosts and Tzarina speaking their minds.

Below Deck Down Under star Tzarina says she was ‘naive’ about Lara

On the podcast, one of the hosts wasn’t thrilled with Lara’s snide comments about Tzarina in her confessional.

Although the chef was super happy with the “weird Barbie” comment because she’s turning it into merch, she admits being surprised at what Lara said behind her back.

“I am seeing the comments come out, making me feel really naive, you know,” Tzarina said, referring to Lara’s confessionals on the show.

The chef addressed Lara’s claims that Tzarina lured a former male crew member to her cabin. She said it hurt because it was all a joke, and everyone was in on the fun.

Tzarina shared that the “boy” in question messaged her after the Below Deck Down Under episode to call out what Lara said because it was not right. She accused Lara of trying to make her look like a predator.

“I was very taken back,” she explained.

Below Deck Down Under fans know more drama is coming between the chief stew and chef based on the trailer.

Tzarina teased that, saying, “There’s more bumpy things coming up that I need to kind of prepare myself for.”

No, she didn’t give away any teasers or spoilers regarding the brewing feud.
