Below Deck Med star Aesha Scott has a lot to be happy about these days. Aesha’s living her best life personally and professionally.
The chief stew is gearing up for Below Deck Med Season 10. As Tea on TV reported, thanks to Captain Sandy Yawn, fans know two other cast members are also returning to the show.
On a personal note, Aesha’s in wedding planning mode. She will marry her long-time boyfriend, Scott Dobson, in March 2026.
However, neither of those things are why Aesha was celebrating this week. Taking to Instagram, she revealed she’s reached a milestone in her career.
“This week was also very exciting because I hit 1 Million on Instagram!!!!! (Slide five smile) This was absolutely huge for me and I honestly cannot thank you all enough!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭,” she wrote in part of her caption.
Aesha’s social media share featured a carousel of photos throughout her time on Instagram, including a throwback of her and Scott.
“I feel like people that aren’t in the industry can often find it ‘cringe’ to be trying to get more followers, but for me who has a dream of becoming a TV presenter, building a following is what gets you noticed at Networks, and it provides great side income through ads (which I try to to few of 😅), the Bravo star added.
She explained that posting for her doesn’t feel like a job or like she’s portraying someone she isn’t. Aesha finds “JOY” in her online community that she’s found, so she looks at social media like a diary.
“It doesn’t feel like I’m just posting to work towards a goal, it feels like a fun diary of sorts. I genuinely love sharing my life with you all, and the kindness you all have in your hearts is actually overwhelming to process sometimes 😭🥹🥰 I have been supported and cheered on, received congratulatory words that I know you mean from the bottom of your heart (and completely melts mine 😭😭😭😭),” Aesha expressed.
The Below Deck Med star loves interacting with her fans, even the negative ones. Aesha is all about positivity and enjoys being able to give that back to her social media community.
In true Aesha fashion, she ended her post by thanking all of those who have supported her since she stepped onto Below Deck Med for Season 4.
“So THANK YOU to all of you, for helping to make my dreams come true in the most fun way possible,” she stated.
Aesha Scott has no plans to stop sharing her life with the world. While she has admitted her wedding likely won’t be filmed for TV, Aesha has no plans to leave Below Deck Med or social media anytime soon.
Fans of the yachting franchise know that reuniting Aesha and Captain Sandy brought new life to the Below Deck spin-off, which got toxic for a couple of seasons. That means we can expect them to be the faces of Below Deck Med for the foreseeable future.
Congrats to Aesha on her milestone!
Below Deck Med is currently on hiatus on Bravo. Seasons 1-9 are streaming on Peacock.
