💘 Boatmance · Below Deck Season 12
Lead Deckhand Falls for Solène, and Solène Plays the Field
What went down
Solène told the girls she wasn't as into Kyle, then made out with Jess on the ep 6 night out and shared her bunk. In ep 7 Kyle told Jess that Solène was still kissing him. At the villa (eps 8-9) Jess kissed Bárbara, but Solène kept pulling her back; Jess called Solène 'her Kryptonite.' After a cold exchange in ep 10 Jess declared she was 'completely' done (ep 11), and in ep 13 Solène called her 'a coward.'
How it landed
Ended badly; the pair clashed again in ep 14. After filming, Bárbara said Solène was in Jess's hotel room the morning after their split.
