						<p>At the cool kids’ table! <strong><em>Below Deck</em></strong> alums <strong><strong>Ben Robinson</strong></strong> and <strong><strong>Kate Chastain</strong></strong> sounded off on <strong>Lauren Cohen</strong>’s new gig as <strong><strong>Jennifer Lopez</strong></strong>’s assistant after Cohen was <strong>spotted on the singer’s yacht</strong> last month.</p>


<p>“I really love Lauren Cohen,” Chastain, 38, exclusively told <em>Us Weekly</em> on Thursday, August 5. “Actually, I met her through Chef Ben a few years ago and she’s lovely. I’m so happy for her. She really is. I can see her doing very well at that job.”</p>
<p>Robinson, 40, added: “I’m happy for her. She’s a good girl.”</p>

<p>In the clip, the former season 2 <em>Below Deck Mediterranean</em> star can be seen strolling behind the lovebirds and pushing a fan out of the way that appeared to be getting too close.</p>
<p>The couple, who were <strong>engaged from 2002 to 2004 before reconnecting in April</strong> following Lopez’s split from <strong><strong>Alex Rodriguez</strong></strong>, have been <strong>spending time in the Mediterranean</strong> since late July.</p>


<p>The twosome kicked off their trip on a yacht in the South of France in celebration of the <em>Hustler</em> star’s birthday. They were then seen in Monaco and Italy.</p>
<p>While Cohen hasn’t confirmed that she is in fact Lopez’s personal assistant, <strong>her Instagram bio</strong> does have her career listed as a PA. Eagle-eyed fans also noticed the former Yachtie posting videos from a giant boat in St. Tropez, France, on the same day that the “Jenny From the Block” singer was there celebrating her big day.</p>
<p>The former reality star, however, isn’t the only <em>Below Deck</em> yachtie to have rubbed elbows with the Hollywood elite.</p>

		<p>Chastain, who is back <strong>hosting <em>Below Deck Mediterranean Galley Talk</em></strong> this season with Robinson, told <em>Us</em> that she previously worked on a charter with <strong><strong>Leonardo DiCaprio</strong></strong> on board.</p>
<p>“Kate’s had Leo. Good, old Leo,” the former chef said on Thursday, before Chastain confirmed the celebrity sighting.</p>
<p>She explained that the <em>Once Upon a Time in Hollywood</em> actor, 46, was on a yacht she was on in St. Bart’s.</p>
<p>“He’s very handsome. Doesn’t talk a lot. Very quiet,” the chef stew said, noting it was over 10 years ago. “I’m sure he was drinking wine at the time. He just came over for a dinner with the yacht owners. They met him out on St. Bart’s and invited him on for one dinner and he came. He was polite.”</p>


<p>Robinson admitted that most “celebrities can’t actually afford yachts,” so he hasn’t had a ton of run-ins with actors and actresses on the job.</p>
<p>“I worked for <strong>[James H.] Clark</strong> on <em>Athena</em>. It was the biggest sailing yacht in the world. That was a while back,” he said. “He founded Netscape. So, he invented the internet. That’s pretty famous.”</p>
<p><em>Below Deck Mediterranean</em> airs on Bravo Mondays at 9 p.m. ET. New episodes drop one week early on Peacock. <em>Below Deck Galley Talk</em> airs on Bravo Fridays at 8 p.m. ET.</p>
