This discovery angered Adam who decided to do the unexpected and break the fourth wall by sharing he and Malia knew each other long before the series had begun filming.
Another producer Nadia Rajabi detailed to BravoCon when she first grew suspicious of the couple after overhearing a suspicious conversion.
She shared: “All of a sudden, I hear Adam say, ‘What about Santorini? What about all this stuff?”
She explained: “And I’m like, ‘Wait a minute, a person who just met another human being like a week-and-a-half ago would not be talking about these elaborate trips unless he wants to wear her skin to his birthday party. He’s not that crazy.’ I’m like, ‘They know each other.’”

Before receiving any confirmation from the couple Nadia first confronted them and candidly asked if they were together.
To which they denied the claims, however, Nadia’s gut was saying otherwise: “So I didn’t trust her, so I put a camera up in the bridge, which is where they do their anchor watch.
“So we put on a GoPro before I left the boat, and we planted a mic, and we saw Malia and Wes kiss,” she remarked.
It was this footage that caused Adam to break the fourth wall, Nadia concluded: “I was like, ‘I knew it!’ I was so disappointed in Malia for not telling me the truth.”
This huge secret changed the course of Below Deck Mediterranean forever, as it forced producers to introduce more cameras into the yacht.
The show went from having 12 cameras to having 18, filming footage 24 hours a day, hoping to get the best bits for the show.
