Chase Stokes and Madelyn Cline allegedly had to intervene after one of the co-creators of Outer Banks was aggressive towards a crew member on set.

Reports suggest executive producer Jonas Pate shook the female production assistant as he shouted at her, forcing the onlookers to separate the two.

A source told People that Pate “was screaming at the female production assistant and grabbed her by her shoulders and shook her”.

“He didn’t hurt her or try to hurt her. He just crossed a line. Putting your hands on someone is never, ever okay.”

TMZ first reported on the incident yesterday, claiming Stokes, 33, and Cline, 27, assisted in de-escalating the situation.

A separate source told the publication Jonas’ outburst was not “unusual”, stating “it’s about time that it’s made public”.

He co-created the show with his twin brother, Josh Pate, and Shannon Burke.

The incident allegedly occurred on location in Dubrovnik, Croatia, where the cast have been filming the fifth and final season of the hit Netflix show.

According to the Dubrovnik Times, the actors were welcomed to the city by Mayor Mato Franković ahead of production beginning.

The show follows a group of North Carolina teenagers whose hunt for treasure ultimately takes them to locations across the globe, including the Bahamas and Morrocco.

It has launched the careers of several successful young actors, including Stokes, Cline and Drew Starkey, who recently starred in Queer.

Stokes and Cline’s high-profile relationship famously began on the set of the show, before they split in November 2021.

“I think they loved it because of us, but they also loved John B. and Sarah, first and foremost”, Cline told Jake Shane earlier this year, appearing on his Therapuss podcast.

The pair are reportedly on good terms and have continued to act as love interests in three subsequent seasons of the show.
