Food and wine expert Antoni Porowski has broken his silence on the rumors of fighting among the cast of the hit Netflix series ‘Queer Eye’.

Last November, interior design specialist Bobby Berk announced his exit from the show after season 8’s release.

Berk’s announcement left a wake of rumors about the cast’s bad blood towards each other particularly Berk and fashion and styling expert Tan France.

France was also accused of manipulating production through underhanded ways to kick out Berk from their series to make room for his friend, Jeremiah Brent.

Aside from the feuding rumors, Jonathan Van Ness was accused of being “emotionally abusive” and having “rage issues” on set.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight on Tuesday, May 14, Canadian chef Porowski confessed to the occasional tension among the group but denied the insinuations that the Fab Five are constantly butting heads.

“We’re hanging out, we’re going for dinners… we all hang out together. We’ve been sharing a trailer since day one, so yeah, sometimes we’re not gonna get along, but at the end of the day, we’re a family,” he said about the current cast.

Porowski also compared them to a “middle-aged boy band” because “through thick and thin, we’re in it together.”

‘Queer Eye’ won 10 Emmy awards, including five consecutive wins for outstanding structured reality program from 2018 to 2022. It was also lauded for its strong representation among the queer community including people of color.

Season 8 premiered on January 24 and took place in New Orleans. Netflix has also renewed the show for a ninth season in Las Vegas.
