Queer Eye recently released its latest set of episodes onto Netflix, which see Tan France, Antoni Porowski, Bobby Berk, Jonathan Van Ness and Karamo Brown helping another group of people be their most fabulous selves. Though the 'Fab Five' are busy filming this show and their other projects, they have still found time for love, with four of the cast in relationships while the other Fab Five member is currently working on self-love.
The real-life partners of the cast of Queer Eye
Tan France
Tan France has been married to illustrator Rob France since 2007. On Fresh Air, the Queer Eye cast member and former Next in Fashion host revealed that what initially attracted him to his husband was that they both did not drink—Tan as a result of being raised in a Muslim household and Rob in a Mormon one. "Neither of us drink, smoke, dance or gamble," France told Terry Gross.
Tan revealed to The Guardian that it was actually his husband who encouraged him to audition for the Netflix show. He said: "My husband said, 'You've been moaning for years and years that you have no gay friends. There's going to be a room of gay men and you're the most sociable person I know: just go.'"
Antoni Porowski
Antoni is currently dating strategic planner Kevin Harrington, whom he has been with since October 2019, two months after he broke up with Flipping Out star Trace Lehnhoff. Among the place they have been seen together are Heidi Klum's Halloween party and Taylor Swift's 30th birthday party.
In recent years, Antoni has opened up about his history of dating both men and women. He told Them: "I've had more lasting relationships with women than I've had with men. I've had two real relationships with men and actually dated a guy, and then I went back to girls for several years."
Bobby Berk
Bobby is married to a surgeon Dewey Do, with whom he celebrates his eighth wedding anniversary this June. Speaking to The Times in the U.K., the interior designer said of his life with his husband: "I live in the hills of Los Feliz, in Los Angeles, with my husband, Dewey. From my bed I can see snowcapped mountains, but we can also see downtown, the ocean and the Hollywood sign from our house. I need sunshine, trees, and mountains—for years I lived in dark, depressing New York apartments."
The pair were together for five years before they married. Bobby said in a Facebook post: "We got married as soon as it was legal to get married and it was important to us to show the world our pride through our expression of love."
Karamo Brown
Karamo is set to become the next Queer Eye cast member to tie the knot, with the original plan being for him to marry Disney Channel director Ian Jordan in October 2020. The 'culture expert' told Yahoo that he met his fiancee when he picked him up in a club–literally.
He said: "I picked him up, he started hitting my head, saying, 'Put me down!' And when I put him down, he looked at me and said, 'Oh, hey, you can pick me back up.'"
Their wedding has currently been postponed due to the pandemic, but if Karamo has anything to do with it the nuptials will be epic when they finally happen. He told Martha Stewart Wedding: "I want an extravaganza, baby...Priyanka and Nick Jonas are my goals."
Jonathan Van Ness
Babe, what?! Um call me rn
— Antoni Porowski (@antoni) July 31, 2019
Jonathan is currently the only single member of the Queen Eye team after breaking up with boyfriend Wilco Froneman in 2019.
Recently, the hair and beauty expert sparked rumors that he was dating fellow Fab Five member Antoni after the pair created a couples Instagram account, but the whole thing was then revealed to be a prank when JVN tweeted: "Also for clarification, @antoni & I are a couple.... of very close friends who run a satirical couple account and may fall in love someday, but that day is not necessarily today. Love yew hauxs."
Speaking to The Guardian in September 2019, JVN said: "In the past, I've had relationships with people who I was almost using to validate myself and my existence, and that's not been a great plan for me. So, this is a season of me falling in love with myself all the way." Continuing the joke, Antoni responded to this, "Babe, what?! Um call me rn."
