As soon as Netflix released their reboot of Queer Eye, viewers loved watching the kind-hearted makeovers that are featured in every single episode. Tan France, Jonathan Van Ness, Bobby Berk, Karamo Brown, and Antoni Porowoski are there to help each contestant, giving them suggestions on everything from home decor to clothing to food.
With eight episodes in the second season, each one delivered an emotional resolution that fans enjoyed watching. Where are the eight season 2 contestants of Queer Eye now? Let's take a look.
8 Tammye From The "God Bless Gay" Episode
Tammye is featured in the season two episode of Queer Eye called "God Bless Gay." She loves her church and has been struggling as she and other relatives have been diagnosed with cancer.
In the episode, she and her community center both get a makeover. She was teaching English at a Newnan, Georgia school called Smokey Road Middle School, and she has recently chosen to retire. It seems that Tammye is still a big part of her church and spending time with her family (and she and her son Myles, who was in the episode, were on a cruise recently).
7 William From "A Decent Proposal"
William's story in the episode "A Decent Proposal" couldn't be sweeter (and this is definitely an episode that makes viewers cry). He and his partner, Shannon, have been together for a long time and they're homebodies who love watching films. He wants to get engaged, but before he can work up the confidence and bravery to ask her to marry him, he wants a makeover so he can feel better about himself.
Of course, the Fab Five deliver and they give William a heartwarming makeover. By the end of the episode, he had proposed to Shannon in a big public way by playing a short film that he made then getting down on one knee. Thankfully, Shannon and William are a married couple today. William is also making short films, writing movies, and in his Twitter bio, he says that he's an Uber driver.
6 Leo From "Unleash the Sexy Beast"
Leo's wife Bethany wanted The Fab Five to give him a makeover, and while this was a memorable and great episode, there isn't a lot of information out there about where Leo is now.
People say that these days, he doesn't seem to post anything on his social media accounts. But people also say that he is most likely happy since he was clearly a wonderful husband and father, as seen on the show, and like the other episodes of Queer Eye, he felt so awesome about himself.
5 Jason From "The Handyman Can"
In "The Handyman Can," the Fab Five gave Jason a makeover, and his goal is to move to Reno.
Fans watching this Queer Eye episode will recall that it seemed a love connection was forming between Jason and Beth, who was a pal of his. When someone tweeted at Beth to see if Jason didn't move to Reno, which had been what he wanted to do, she said "yes." It seems like they are now together, which is really good news.
4 Skyler From "The Sky's The Limit"
In the season two episode "The Sky's The Limit," Skyler has gotten top surgery and his support system gave him some financial help, too, as he raised $8,000 to put toward it. This is an episode that brought on a lot of emotion. Skyler's home got a makeover and the episode ended up with a party to celebrate.
Today, Skyler has posted on his social media that he feels really good, and he has been open about how recovering from that surgery isn't a very quick thing. He's an activist and as of the fall of 2019, there was some good news reported: Skyler sued the University Systems of Georgia, as his healthcare insurance refused to pay for his surgery, and he was able to get some incredible changes made. Georgia's 26 places of higher education will no longer refuse healthcare for transgender people.
3 Arian From "Big Little Lies"
Today, Arian has finished a degree at Georgia State University and is working. The update comes from Fab Five member Karamo Brown himself who was interviewed by Vanity Fair and said that this is what he knows.
2 Sean From "Bedazzled"
Fans will recall that in Sean's episode "Bedazzled," he wanted to find a social life because he had been homeschooled. He played the piano super well and was going to go off to Piedmont College. He had also released a few different albums, which is impressive since he was 18 when he filmed the episode.
Fans will be happy to know that he's in college now seems to have found some good pals. From his social media posts, people say that he's still playing his music, which is really good to hear.
1 Ted From "Make Ted Great Again"
Besides having a really clever episode title, this one also has a good makeover story. Ted is the mayor of Clarkston, Georgia and fans will remember that he had a pretty big beard. It wouldn't be overstating things to say that his beard was another character in the episode, actually, as it was quite the focal point.
Where is Ted now? He was interviewed by City Lab in August 2018 and in the photos, he had his long beard again. He is still the mayor and he has made possession of marijuana no longer criminal, along with making sure that minimum wage is $15 an hour.
