'Queer Eye' Star Antoni Porowski Splits with Longtime Boyfriend

READ TIME: 2 MIN.

"Queer Eye" star Antoni Porowski, the Fab Five's food and wine guy, has called it quits with his longtime boyfriend, according to a report from Us Weekly.

A source told the magazine he and Joey Krietemeyer have split after more than seven years of dating.

"Antoni and Joey broke up two months ago," the source said. "It was very amicable. They're still friends. It was a clean split."

Nevertheless, it appears as though Porowski, 34, has never been happier. He recently opened up a restaurant in New York City.

"Antoni's just happy in his life," "Queer Eye" star Karamo Brown told Us Weekly this week. "He deserves all the happiness in the world. People don't realize what a sweet, empathetic person he is. So I just love that he's happy."

When speaking to Vulture earlier this year, the hunky cook said he was "basically married" to Krietemeyer, adding that the 31-year-old art director helped him come out to his family.

"[My father] made a comment driving me to the airport that I certainly lead a very discreet life. I'm on the plane on the tarmac like, 'Well, if the plane crashes, I'm going to die and he's never going to know,' " Porowski told GQ in February. "I decided to send him an email. Because I was living with Joey, my boyfriend now, I wrote my father a very short email: 'You brought this up. I think it's time I tell you: I love. I am loved. His name is Joey, and we live together.' That was it."

"My sexuality's something that's intimate. It's not anything that I'm ashamed of," he added. "I don't know many people who have a path similar to mine, so I've always been a little more reticent to be as open about it. I'm also not somebody who talks about sexuality that much. I'm a little old school in that sense."
