Below Deck fans dragged Ben in the comments on the post and threw shade at his relationship with Sunny.
“Tying the knot,” one fan joked, using a pun about the Below Deck stars possibly getting married in the future.
Another fan called Sunny the “whole package,” and told Ben that he should be the one trying to catch her instead of the other way around.
A third fan said they hoped Sunny wised up about Ben and left him because they believed he treated her unfairly on the show.
However, Sunny had no hard feelings about Ben’s post and shared her reaction with a playful comment.
“Wanna tickle my pickle for a nickel?” she replied, to which Ben responded, “Deal.”
