Ben Robinson from Below Deck Confirms Split from Fiancée Kiara
Below Deck star Ben Robinson has confirmed his split from fiancée Kiara Cabral just months before their wedding. On Monday, September 16, Ben, 43, took to Instagram to announce the news to his followers.
In his heartfelt post, Ben Robinson shared, “I am no longer getting married,” explaining that the decision was mutual. He refrained from disclosing the reasons behind the breakup but noted, “We have decided to go our separate ways, and I think this is the best decision for both of us.”
Despite the difficult news, Ben Robinson thanked his fans, friends, and family for their support. “You always give me strength,” he wrote, adding that he plans to focus on his culinary passions. He concluded with a light-hearted comment, referencing his love for cooking: “I’m excited to continue my culinary inspirations with my non-gaslit cooktop and a trusty blowtorch. After all, nobody deserves a troublesome flame. Cheers, Lovelies. ❤️”
Their Love Story: From Friendship to Romance
Ben Robinson and Kiara’s love story dates back to seven years ago when they met through mutual friends. However, their romantic connection didn’t blossom until years later. Ben, a prominent figure on Below Deck, described their first encounter as poorly timed, stating that “the stars had not quite aligned for us back then.” Kiara, who was younger and hesitant about the Below Deck world, remained friends with Ben until they reconnected before the pandemic.
Engagement and Wedding Plans
In May 2023, Ben and Kiara announced their engagement after more than three years of dating. Ben Robinson expressed his excitement, telling Us Weekly he was looking forward to a “life of love and laughter” with Kiara. The couple had planned to marry in the summer of 2024 at Ben’s parents’ home on Cape Cod’s Cotuit shoreline, a sentimental location for their wedding.
Fans of Below Deck had high hopes for the couple, but they began to notice signs of trouble when Ben Robinson removed all photos of Kiara from his Instagram account. Now, with the confirmation of their split, it’s clear that the two have chosen to part ways before taking the next step in their relationship.
Though their relationship has ended, Ben continues to receive support from his loyal followers as he embarks on this new chapter in his life.
