Antoni Porowski has addressed the “backstage drama” on Queer Eye. The reality star, 41, is the food and wine expert on the hit Netflix series but fans have rumbled that there is something going on with the atomphere on set,

As Antoni joined cast members Tan France, Jonathan Van Ness and Jeremiah Brent for the rollout of their tenth and final season Karamo Brown was notably absent from multiple public appeareances designed to promote the last run of episodes to be released on the streaming service.

Fans were quick to notice that Karamo has unfollowed his co-stars on social media, and CBS Mornings host Gayle King was informed just half an hour before the cast were scheduled to be interviewed that he would not be able to join because he was struggling with his mental health.

In a statement provided to CBS Mornings, representatives for Karamo said: “I hope everyone remembers the main theme I have tried to teach them over the past decade, which is to focus on and to protect their mental health/peace from people or a world who seek to destroy it; which is why I can’t be there today.”

One fan was quick to voice their opinion, and took to the comments section of a post Anton had made on Instagram on Wednesday. They wrote: “Ngl the backstage drama kinda kills the vibe of the show. I’m not motivated to watch you all portray to be a big happy family on every episode knowing it’s all fake. If you can’t work out your own mess, how can you be in charge of fixing someone else’s life?

Everyone has a different background, but Antoni was quick to address the comment, saying that he wanted to show something “authentic” with the show.

Many of us have jobs and are passionate about things that are good, he said. Being open to the complexities of life and having the ability to experience two things simultaneously are qualities that make authenticity.

Queer Eye has won six Emmy nominations between 2018 and 2023 throughout its run. However, Bobby Berk announced that he was leaving the show in 2023, which marked a significant change for the network.

The star, who was the show’s interior design expert, later said that he stepped down from the show to work on “multiple other projects”. When asked about a rumoured fall-out between him and co-star Tan, he told the Mail Online: “There was a situation, and that’s between Tan and I, and it has nothing to do with the show.”

The reboot of Bravo’s 2003 series Queer Eye for the Straight Guy was released on Netflix in 2018.

Fans have watched the stylish gang transform the lives of men and women in need of a makeover over the course of nine seasons.

Queer Eye made a star of hair stylist Jonathan Van Ness, who showed off their impressive weight loss earlier this year.

Love Island: All Stars fans were divided after Blue gave a performance on Wednesday night’s episode. The boyband, consisting of Simon Webbe, Duncan James, Antony Costa, and Lee Ryan, strutted onto the set of the South African villa after Helena got a text announcing their impending arrival.

She declared: “Islanders, it’s time to get glam! Tonight you’ll be feeling anything but Blue as the villa hosts a performance from a legendary British boyband!” Some confusion ensued, as some contestants thought Jack’s dad Ronan Keating had jetted in with Boyzone. But he reminded his pals: “We’re Irish!”

After launching into their signature hits All Rise and One Love, AJ shouted from the crowd: “I had your poster on my wall!” and Simon declared that all he wanted to see on the island was love.

Some viewers appeared to be unaware of who Blue were despite the islanders’ enthusiasm. The band was founded in 2000 and continued to play until 2005, but they resurrected in 2011 and released their most recent studio album, Reflections, just a few days later.

On X, a viewer wrote, “I’m shocked at the idea that people don’t know who Boyzone are… But then I’m basically a fossil, so that’s that.” and another wrote, “As a 25-year-old, am I too young or too old to know Blue?” Or”?

A third person wrote, “Whitney wonders if she doesn’t know boyzone, because she doesn’t know these blue men!” and another wrote, “Not people saying whos blue and the islanders not knowing the lyrics. You are not “90s babies, by definition”!

The Islanders claimed a performance from the pop group was exactly what they needed as the singers wished them the “best time” on the show. However, a fan later wrote, “They’ve gone from who’s Blue.” to portray them as Blue’s biggest supporters. One person criticized “Blue’s taken up more screen time than Leanne & Samie,” while calling her “a real fan.” “Sack this off” In the end, Blue, who also performed their new song Beautiful Spiritual, impressed the Islanders. Sean then declared, “The love is returning to the Villa”!

From series seven’s Millie Court to series nine’s Shaq Muhammad, 12 ex-Islanders made their way back to the ITV villa for another chance at love in the first episode. Before the series’ first icebreaker, Tommy Bradley and Jess Harding exchanged flirty texts that they had been sending each other outside of the villa and that caused a lot of kissing.

After their smooching session – which saw the girls kiss the boys they thought would be good and boy for them – host Maya Jama revealed the results of the first public coupling vote. Sean and Belle Hassan were matched together, followed by Jack and Whitney, Tommy and Jess, Shaq and Leanne and then Ciaran and Millie. But then a drama tic recoupling took place just days into the series.

On ITV2 and ITVX, Love Island: All Stars airs on weeknights at 9 p.m.
