Where Is Jenna MacGillivray? What the ‘Below Deck Sailing Yacht’ Alum Is up to Today
Jenna MacGillivray was the first chief stew during Below Deck Sailing Yacht season 1. Although she had an interesting storyline, Jenna left the show after one roller-coaster season.
It’s been almost one decade since Jenna made her reality TV debut, and fans are wondering what Jenna is up to today.
What Happened to Jenna MacGillivray on ‘Below Deck Sailing Yacht’?
Jenna formed a romance with chef Adam Glick on the show and was criticized by her crewmates for publicly displaying her affection toward him while filming. The pair started dating after the cameras went down, but didn’t last long after that.
In June 2020, Jenna and Adam virtually appeared on Bravo’s video series The Final Word.
“There’s definitely a misconception about how often we were engaged in PDA when other people were around that just people weren’t around for it, and it wasn’t excessive by any means,” Jenna said at the time. “I would go in in the morning and give him a kiss, and no one was there. Or I’d be doing whatever in the galley or the crew mess, he’d come over and give me a hug. Like I said on the reunion, that was when I was finished with my shift. Some people have a problem with that, I get it, but I’m also not working.”

“She took a brief break and headed ashore to work as a social worker, but quickly missed the yachtie life and returned back to sea. She is a hard-working Chief Stew with an eye for detail and taste for perfection,” Jenna’s Bravo bio reads. “From her tablescapes to the way she manages her crew, nothing is left unfinished when she is in charge.”

“I have definitely noticed I obsess about everything being perfect (which is literally impossible), and I’ve also correlated my focus on perfection coming from years of working on yachts,” she wrote in the caption. “I can begin to explain how that alters your mind in the sense that when I started, my Chief Stew would examine how we cleaned a cabin to such a high standard that you had to look at a bathroom mirror from every possible angle to ensure there was not one mark visible to the eye. And then imagine focusing on that for 18 hours a day for months on end.”
