Below Deck Star Camille Lamb Faces Stormy Waters After DUI Arrest
Mia Reynolds, 10/13/2025Former Below Deck star Camille Lamb has traded yacht decks for a different kind of rough waters. The reality TV personality and aspiring singer, known for her dramatic exit from Season 10, was arrested for DUI in Mississippi. It's a sobering reminder that life's storms don't always come from the sea.Former Below Deck star Camille Lamb's latest headline-making moment isn't exactly the kind of splash she hoped to make. The reality TV personality landed in hot water early Saturday morning after being arrested for driving under the influence in Mississippi — a far cry from her days navigating luxury yachts through crystal-clear waters.
The incident unfolded around 3 a.m., with Lamb spending the next 12 hours in custody before posting a $1,000 bond. Details remain frustratingly sparse, though the timing — just weeks before the upcoming 2025 Below Deck reunion special — has certainly raised some eyebrows among devoted fans of the show.
Reality TV watchers might recall Lamb's rather spectacular exit from Below Deck Season 10. Her heated clashes with crew member Alissa Humber eventually boiled over, leading to what became one of the season's most talked-about moments — a mid-season dismissal that had viewers buzzing for weeks. "This is not easy for me... I'm letting you go this morning," the captain had declared, in what became an instantly memorable piece of reality television drama.
But here's the thing about Lamb — she's no stranger to pursuing the spotlight. Before her stint as a yachtie, she took a shot at musical stardom on American Idol Season 19 back in 2021. While she didn't quite make it to the Top 24, that setback hardly dampened her musical ambitions. Fast forward to 2023, and she dropped her EP (rather cleverly titled "fromtheEP") — proof that some dreams don't sink easily.
The timing of this incident feels particularly poignant, especially given the recent wave of celebrities opening up about their struggles with public scrutiny. Take Gigi Hadid, who recently shared some pretty raw thoughts about the harsh judgment she faced early in her career. "The world was so hard on her," Hadid noted — words that might resonate differently now in light of Lamb's current situation.
Law enforcement's keeping pretty tight-lipped about the whole thing, and Lamb's team hasn't exactly been rushing to the microphones. Then again, sometimes silence speaks volumes in these situations.
This whole episode serves up a pretty stark reminder: when the cameras stop rolling and the spotlight dims, reality TV stars face the same real-world consequences as anyone else. Fame might open doors, but it doesn't grant immunity from life's rougher waters — something Lamb's presumably learning the hard way right about now.
