Nathan Gallagher Arrest Warrant: Who Are Ex-Partner Gael Cameron and Their Son Kayden?

Sydney: Below Deck Mediterranean star Nathan Gallagher is facing an arrest warrant in Australia after failing to appear at a scheduled court hearing over domestic-violence-related charges involving his former partner and fellow cast member Gael Cameron.

Gallagher was arrested in Sydney in December 2025 after police accused him of assaulting a 29-year-old woman he knew. He was subsequently charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm, intentionally choking a person without consent and common assault. He was released on conditional bail and was due to appear before Burwood Local Court on September 1, 2026.

According to reports, Gallagher failed to attend the hearing and authorities subsequently issued a warrant for his arrest. New South Wales Police believe he is currently overseas and have appealed for information about his whereabouts.

Who is Gael Cameron?

Gael Cameron is a professional yacht crew member and reality television personality who appeared alongside Gallagher on Below Deck Mediterranean.

The pair met while filming the show's ninth season and developed a relationship during their time on the programme. Their relationship continued after filming, although they experienced periods of separation before reconciling.

In June 2025, Cameron and Gallagher welcomed their first child together, a son named Kayden Cameron-Gallagher.

Their relationship and transition into parenthood subsequently became part of the storyline surrounding Gallagher's appearances on the Bravo reality series.

What happened between Gallagher and Cameron?

The December 2025 incident resulted in Gallagher's arrest in Australia. Police said he was accused of assaulting a woman known to him at an apartment in Melrose Park, Sydney, on December 26. He was arrested the following morning.

Court proceedings later identified Cameron as the alleged victim in the domestic-violence case. Reports said Cameron sought an Apprehended Violence Order (AVO) against Gallagher.

Gallagher has denied the characterization of the allegations and has said there is another side to the story. In comments reported in August, he said he had video footage, messages and other material that he believed provided additional context. He has maintained that he would present such evidence through the appropriate legal process.

Gallagher's young son

Gallagher and Cameron share their son Kayden, who was born in June 2025.

Gallagher has previously spoken publicly about his hopes of co-parenting his child with Cameron. The couple's relationship and preparations for parenthood were also featured in Below Deck Mediterranean.

The latest legal developments have consequently drawn attention not only because of Gallagher's television career but also because of the impact the dispute could have on the former couple's co-parenting arrangements.

A separate case in Ireland

Gallagher is also reportedly facing a separate legal matter in Ireland.

According to reports, he was arrested in 2022 over an allegation that he assaulted a man and caused him harm in Dungloe, County Donegal. A bench warrant was reportedly issued in April 2025 after he failed to appear in court.

The Irish case is separate from the Australian domestic-violence proceedings involving Cameron.

What happens next?

Australian authorities are now seeking Gallagher after the arrest warrant was issued following his failure to appear in court. Police believe he has left Australia.

Meanwhile, Cameron has obtained a protection order, according to reports, while the legal proceedings continue. Gallagher's absence from court has added another layer to an already high-profile case involving one of the cast members of the popular reality franchise.

Gallagher's current season of Below Deck Mediterranean continues to air, although reports indicate he will not appear in the show's upcoming season.

The allegations against Gallagher remain a legal matter, and reporting on the case should distinguish between allegations, court findings and claims made by the accused.
