How 'Below Deck' star Fraser Olender is doing after vaping-induced heart attack
Summary
‘Below Deck’ star Fraser Olender recently suffered a heart attack due to vaping-induced lung injury (EVALI). His boyfriend, Matt Rogers, shared that Olender is “doing much better” following hospitalization in London. Olender detailed on Instagram that vaping caused a coronary artery vasospasm, leading to a STEMI heart attack, despite no blockage. He described the pain as excruciating, even with strong pain medication, and expressed gratitude for his recovery. Olender, who has quit vaping, hopes his experience will deter others from the habit, emphasizing the lack of information regarding the safety of e-cigarettes and highlighting the positive impact quitting has already had on his skin. He and Rogers confirmed their relationship in November 2025.
