“Below Deck: Mediterranean” star Natalya Scudder recounted her harrowing experience of being detained in a detention center and deported from the US.
The Australian native — who starred on Seasons 7 and 8 of the Bravo reality series as a stewardess — claimed she spent a day in “disgusting” accommodations when she tried to land at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) recently.
“I basically got pulled from like this main waiting area to the behind the scenes of the airport,” she told TMZ of being taken to the detention center after “the guy was taking longer than usual” in the immigration line.
It was here she was allegedly informed she’d taken photos “on American soil” in 2024 and earned money from them, which meant she’d “illegally worked on the wrong visa.”
Scudder said she was then taken to a holding room where she found “dirty blankets on the floor” and saw “stains all over the walls.”
The reality star remembered being the “only girl” there and a shower consisting of a “shared loofah” and no towels — with officers telling her to dry herself off with her dirty clothes and put them back on.
Scudder said she also asked for a blanket because she was “freezing” and was told, “This isn’t the Beverly Hills Hotel.”
This was to be her home for “one to five days,” she claimed.
What’s more, the OnlyFans creator said when she was detained officers took her iPhone and “went through absolutely everything.”
“Whatever you think’s deleted on your iPhone, it’s not deleted,” she said, alleging officials looked through her ChatGPT history, text messages, notes and “every single thing you’ve ever screenshotted, taken a picture of, Googled.”
“It’s really embarrassing just having everyone kind of stare at you and laugh when they come out of this room and gaze over,” she said.
After she was finally “dead-ass asleep” around 3 a.m., Scudder said she was shaken awake and told to wake up for her “official interview” — where she claimed officials had “already decided” to deport her back to Australia.
“17-hour flight there, 30 to 40 hours between when I landed to the whole lock-up situation and then 17 hours back,” she said of her travel nightmare.
While Scudder said she still “love[s] America,” she issued a stern warning to other content creators to be wary of following the rules for whatever visa they are issued.
