Brianna Adekeye was a fan-favorite during Below Deck season 5, but what is she up to today? The yachtie was attractive because of her laidback and conflict-averse attitude. Unlike the combatant crewmates who start fights, Brianna tended to go with the flow. From her unconventional career to continuing to journey across the world, this is what Brianna's doing today.

Brianna was introduced on the premiere of Below Deck season 5. During her season, Brianna was able to maintain a chill disposition, despite the drama that surrounded her. Chiefly, the third stewardess, Jennifer Howell created tension between Brianna and the chief stewardess Kate Chastain. Although Brianna never lost her cool, she was drawn into arguments between Jennifer and Kate. While Jennifer made critical comments about Brianna, she never caused too much drama and was praised by Kate for her work ethic.

Brianna Is A Free Spirit

After Below Deck season 5 came to a close in December 2017, it was difficult to keep an eye on Brianna. Being the free spirit that she is, Brianna was quick to retreat to her low-profile life once the cameras stopped rolling. Brianna reappeared on Below Deck fans' radars when she commemorated a full moon in January 2018. Since then, she has traveled the world showcasing her art. Following season 5, she was in a public relationship with musician Michael Quinn, who she met in Ireland.

Brianna Shares Her Art On Instagram

While her LinkedIn still lists Brianna's latest profession as a receptionist at an Equinox in Los Angeles, the stew's social media activity indicates Brianna has been pursuing a much more creatively stimulating career. On Instagram, Brianna regularly shares her abstract art, from paintings to drawing to poetry. Brianna also shared that she tried out cooking as a yacht chef in 2021, proving her multiple capabilities. More than ever, Brianna continues to demonstrate her nonconformist ways.

On Below Deck season 5, Brianna was beloved for her free-spirited character, and the stewardess has kept up her zen personality in all the years since she starred on reality TV. From traveling the world to working on her artistic craft, Brianna is still the coolest crew member on the boat. While some might want the star to return to Below Deck, it's not in Brianna's nature to turn back.
