Who Is Elena Dubaich From “Below Deck Mediterranean” Season 7?

Since the premiere of Season 7 of Under Deck Mediterranean, several crew members/cast members have been changed. Next week’s episode will introduce a new stew named Elena Dubaich, who will replace Kyle Viljoen on the team. Kyle injured his ankle after falling down the stairs in episode 17, fans all know well. In the show, he is seen lying on a bed resting as the interior staff work around the clock to serve the tenants. Given the workload, foreman Natasha Webb made the difficult decision to replace her BFF Kyle for the final hire because the crew asked someone to take over his responsibilities.

Fortunately, captain Sandy Yawn did not have to wait long to find a replacement. Kyle’s departure was mentioned in episode 17, however, the captain hinted that he might return. Meanwhile, Elena Dubaich will debut Under Deck Mediterranean season 7 as the second stew in episode 18.

Elena Dubaich was formerly a therapeutic masseuse on a superyacht.
