Is love on the horizon for Captain Jason Chambers at BravoCon?
"Well, as a single man, I plan to make the most of my time here on Bravo and have a good time," joked the 50-year-old star of Below Deck Down Under in an exclusive interview with We on November 4. He went on to mention some of the Bravolebrities he has already had the pleasure of meeting during the convention, including Lala Kent and Olivia Flowers.
Jason's Below Deck co-star Aesha Scott, who is 31, mentioned that she played a role in introducing Jason and Lala, who is 33. Aesha swiftly distanced herself from the situation and revealed her enthusiasm for setting Jason up with various individuals.
Aesha, a chief stew on the Below Deck Down Under charters, was Team Lala because “it could be a little bit freaky.”
Jason succinctly replied: “Freaky’s good!”
Jason enthusiastically expressed that he had an absolutely delightful conversation with the renowned star of Vanderpump Rules. He joyfully discovered that they share striking similarities, both being devoted single parents. (Jason proudly shares parenthood of his lovely daughter Saskia with a previous partner, whereas Lala successfully co-parents her adorable daughter Ocean with her ex-fiancé Randall Emmett.)
Captain Jason Chambers, Lala Kent, and Lindsay Hubbard, who recently became single, have all expressed an interest in each other. However, Jason has only had the opportunity to connect with Lala and Olivia so far. Playfully referring to Cupid's limited supply of arrows, Jason admitted that he hasn't had the chance to meet Lindsay yet.
Jason also had a connection with Caroline Brooks from The Real Housewives of Dubai during the Sin City event. "I was going in for the Dubai kiss, the double, and he surprised me by kissing me on the lips. I was taken aback and thought, 'What's happening here? Wow,'" shared Caroline, 36, with Us on Friday, November 3.
Despite the clamor from most BravoCon attendees to meet Jason, his main focus remains on his yachting career. "Each season, my goal is to reach the end with the best team that represents our industry. Along the way, we've had to make adjustments," he shared with Us. "While we're aware of the challenges faced this season, we're determined to push forward without dwelling on them, as our primary objective is to achieve our endgame."

Jason's charter last season was marred by a scandal involving inappropriate behavior, leading to the termination of Luke Jones and Laura Bileskalne, both of whom had made unwelcome advances towards their colleagues.
"Looking back, we now acknowledge the situation and firmly believe that we took the appropriate action. I have complete confidence and comfort in my decision," Jason stated. "I responded based on Aesha's feelings and the events that unfolded. I was unaware of the situation until it had already escalated. My immediate priority was to address the issue, get a good night's rest, and reevaluate it in the morning."
