An arrest warrant for Below Deck Mediterranean star Nathan Gallagher has been issued by Australian police after he missed a scheduled court appearance for an earlier charge.
The New South Wales Police released a photo of the reality TV personality’s mugshot on Tuesday, confirming that a warrant had been issued for his arrest. Gallagher had a court date set for Tuesday, Sept. 1, after being granted conditional bail on Dec. 28 following an arrest on domestic violence charges, per People.
Gallagher was arrested on Dec. 27 after allegedly assaulting a 29-year-old woman. He was charged with three offenses, including assault occasioning actual bodily harm, intentionally choking a person without consent and common assault.
On Tuesday, Rolling Stone reported that a local court cited former Below Deck Med star Gael Cameron, with whom Gallagher shares a child , as the woman allegedly assaulted by Gallagher. “Gallagher used one hand to cover the mouth and nose of Ms Cameron,” a police document stated. “Ms Cameron has tried to pull away, however Gallagher persisted and continued to cover her mouth, causing the victim to be unable to breathe at certain times.”
Rolling Stone also noted that when Cameron elbowed him in response, Gallagher allegedly “placed both of his hands around Ms Cameron’s neck, applying enough pressure which made her unable to breathe.”
“Gallagher used an open palm and struck Ms Cameron on the left side of her jaw, [which] caused pain and swelling,” the statement continues, adding that she got out of his grip, and then he “used both hands to grip the neck of Ms Cameron and, whilst applying force, lifted her up… Ms Cameron’s legs, however, were not lifted off the floor – Ms Cameron was unable to breathe during this time.”
The Hollywood Reporter reached out to reps for Bravo and Cameron for comment. Gallagher deactivated his Instagram account amid the news.
Gallagher and Cameron both joined the Below Deck franchise during season nine in 2024. They met on the show and formed a romantic connection during filming. Gallagher subsequently returned for season 10 of Below Deck Med, where Cameron also returned and they rekindled their romance. By the end of that season, the couple had welcomed a son together.
Gallagher is currently starring on season 11 of Below Deck Med, where Cameron has popped up in guest appearances with their child. That installment filmed last year; season 12 is actively filming.
The reality star addressed the arrest in an Aug. 27 statement with Rolling Stone, where he said “what has been publicly reported, however, represents only one side of what was an extremely complicated situation.“
“I’m not claiming I was perfect. I wasn’t. I made mistakes and I will take responsibility for my own actions. But I will not accept being portrayed solely through one person’s account of a relationship when there is another side and evidence relating to it,” his statement read in part. “My priority is being recognised as his father, establishing a relationship with him and ultimately finding a way for both of us to move forward and co-parent peacefully.”
