Aesha Scott Discussed Winning TV Personality of the Year at the 2023 New Zealand Television Awards

During a March 2024 interview with Dom Harvey, Scott discussed taking home the award for TV personality of the year at the 2023 New Zealand Television Awards. She stated that she was happy to receive the award because “Below Deck: Mediterranean” was not popular in New Zealand.

“It took so long for New Zealand to kind of give a [expletive] about what were were doing overseas,” said Scott.

Scott, who began starring on “Below Deck: Mediterranean” in 2019, stated that “it’s only been in the last year that ‘Below Deck’ has become popular here.”

“When my name got called out at the New Zealand TV Awards, I thought I was going to do this really cool speech. And be super funny. But I actually just broke down. And I could stop crying for like an hour. Because it felt like mum and dad finally said they were proud of me,” quipped Scott.
