‘Below Deck’: Is Captain Kerry Titheradge Married? His Relationship History
Below Deck returns for Season 13 on October 12, with Captain Kerry Titheradge running the ship for the third season in a row. This season of the show was filmed in Phuket, Thailand.
Earlier this year, Titheradge underwent a major change in his personal life when he ended a romantic relationship after six years. Scroll down for everything we know about the current state of his love life and his relationship history.
Does Captain Kerry Titheradge have a girlfriend?
No, Titheradge is not believed to currently have a girlfriend. His most recent relationship was with Gönül Bihan. They were together for about six years before splitting at the very end of 2025.
“He ended it right before the new year and she moved out of their shared Florida house recently,” Us Weekly reported in January 2026.
While Titheradge mostly keeps his personal life private, he revealed on a 2025 episode of Below Deck that Bihan worked for him while he was married to his ex. “A few years later, I said, ‘How about we go out for dinner?’” he shared. He also called Bihan the “love of my life” during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live in 2024.

Titheradge did not divulge too much information about Bihan, although he did confirm she is from Turkey.
Was Captain Kerry Titheradge married?
Yes, Titheradge was previously married to a woman named Jennifer. “I was married, and then that ended,” he said in Season 11 episode. “It wasn’t good.”
How many kids does Captain Kerry Titheradge have?
Titheradge has two children, a son named Sawyer and a daughter named Shaye. They were 13 and 11, respectively, when he made his Below Deck debut in 2024 (although the season was filmed the previous year).
“I was taught, you know, the mom’s there to be the emotional support, [and] the dad’s there to be the money and the disciplinarian,” he once said on Below Deck. “And then when [the divorce] happened, it gave me the opportunity to be there emotionally for them, as well.”
After getting divorced, Kerry “gave up” his life running a massive yacht to be there for his kids. “I went from being a captain of a multi-million dollar yacht to painting houses,” he said in a Below Deck confessional. “I went and did a job that I could focus on myself — put my earbuds in, listen to self-help work. I was there for my kids every day, and I could get myself better.”
