Tan France has entered the chat! Amid massive Queer Eye controversy, the fashion designer is shutting down allegations he “campaigned” to get Bobby Berk “fired” from the Netflix reality series in favor of his pal Jeremiah Brent, who was officially announced as the interior designer’s replacement.
If you missed it, a bombshell Rolling Stone report dropped this week taking aim at Jonathan Van Ness for alleged “rage issues” and acting like a “monster” on the set.
It’s a terrible look for the show that’s already dealing with a rift between Tan and Bobby, who stepped back from the series amid an unexplained feud with his co-star.
While most of the exposé focused on JVN accusations, the outlet did cite three sources who claimed Tan (with support from co-star Antoni Porowski) “campaigned to replace Berk” on the show, calling it “mean-girl antics.” Related: Are Love Is Blind‘s Jimmy & Chelsea Actually BACK TOGETHER?!? Seemingly referencing this “gossip,” the Next in Fashion co-host took to his Instagram account on Friday to shut down the rumors.
