A west Donegal reality TV star facing domestic violence-related charges in Australia is also wanted in Ireland to answer a serious assault charge.
Nathan Gallagher, who hails from Burtonport, is due before a court in Australia next week in connection with an alleged incident last December.
Gallagher, who appears on ‘Below Deck Mediterranean’, has been charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm; intentionally choking a person without consent; and common assault.
Donegal Daily has established that there is a live bench warrant in existence in Ireland for the arrest of Gallagher, who has been granted bail on strict conditions ahead of his September 1 court date in Australia.
The warrant was issued at Dungloe District Court on April 8, 2025 after Gallagher failed to appear. He is charged with assaulting another man and causing him harm at Main Street, Dungloe, on August 7, 2022.
That charge is contrary to section 3 of the Non-Fatal Offences Against the Person Act, 1997.
Down Under, Gallagher is also facing the wrath of the law.
At around 8.45am on Saturday 27 December 2025, officers from Ryde Police Area Command arrested Gallagher, a 27-year-old, at a unit complex on Appleforth Street, Melrose Park where he was taken to Gladesville Police Station.
