Below Deck Sailing Yacht’s Alli and Dani were on the pill when they got pregnant

Below Deck Sailing Yacht star Alli Dore recently announced her pregnancy to boyfriend Ben Thompson.

And now the yachtie has revealed that she was actually on the pill when she fell pregnant.

Speaking to the Unpopular podcast, the 32-year-old admitted that she’d been taking a budget pill she purchased in Spain, which had concerned Ben right off the jump.

She also said that her Below Deck co-star Dani Soares was also on the pill when she fell pregnant last year. 

‘We must both be the most fertile women in the country!’ she joked.

Alli admitted that she made the mistake of not taking the pill at the same time each day, which led to her surprise pregnancy.

‘I’m a bit slack…’ she admitted with a laugh. ‘I think you get a bit comfortable when you’re in a relationship.’

She added: ‘My only form of contraception was relying on the pill. I would always try to take it as soon as I would wake up, but sometimes it wouldn’t be until later in the day.

‘I didn’t realise that was such a sensitive thing. Now I’ve learned!’

Alli and boyfriend Ben recently moved in together in Melbourne ahead of the birth of their first child.

Meanwhile, Dani recently welcomed her first child, a baby daughter named Lilly Rose.

So far, she has resisted sharing the father’s identity, despite the rampant speculation that it’s co-star Jean-Luc Cerza-Lanaux’s baby.

‘He thinks it’s not his child, he doesn’t want to have anything to do with it,’ she told People magazine of the unnamed man.

Now Dani says she’s trying to keep things as cordial as possible between herself and her daughter’s father.

The Brazilian-born yachtie is currently based in Sydney, Australia, where she works as a beauty therapist.

She’s also studying part time to be a nurse, but is taking some time off to focus on Lilly.
