In a recent Instagram post, Queer Eye fashion expert Tan France shared humorous and sentimental photos from his first months as a father. Alongside his husband, Rob France, the two appear to be savoring every moment of their life together, embracing both their family and their career. Gaining fame and recognition as part of the Fab Five on Netflix's Queer Eye, Tan has played an integral role in the series, helping to promote self-care by means of clothing and professionalism. Throughout five seasons of the series, Tan has been an empathetic and powerful voice for the LGBTQ+ community in the realm of reality television.
While best known for his role on Queer Eye, Tan has diversified his appearances throughout the years. Appearing on Netflix's Next in Fashion, taking Queer Eye to Japan and even writing his own memoir, Tan has used his platform not only to make an excellent career for himself but also to be an LGBTQ+ role model for many. Whether it be fashion, dabbling in the written word or diversifying reality television, Tan has helped to make television more inclusive and much more wholesome, bringing relatability and heart back to the genre.
Posting on his Instagram account, Tan shared a fun look into the early stages of his time as a dad. The post featured a photo of Tan decked out in his typical eccentric fashion, with an eye-catching yellow hat on his head, and his son, Ismail, beside him in a stroller. Tan wrote, "Didn't want Ismail getting all the attention from the doctor, so I went as a smurf." The post not only allows fans a chance to see Tan enjoying fatherhood but also to see that his humor and fun fashion are still in sight. Tan's post only furthers the expansion of the Fab Five family, alongside Jonathan Van Ness' recent marriage.
Tan's post was well-received by followers, with Jonathan and Bobby Berk specifically sharing their love for Tan and his son. As Tan shares his flavorful fashion, wearing a Smurf-esque hat designed by Gigi Burris, fans are certainly eager for more episodes of Queer Eye. Only one of many posts from the Queer Eye star, Tan seems to be adapting well to being a fashion-forward father.
With hints at a new season of Queer Eye approaching, Tan's growing family is certain to keep fans anticipating more from the Fab Five. Helping to keep heart and humor at the source of his social media account, Tan adds hope to the negativity online. As the series has often done, Tan himself acts as a source of inspiration, not only strutting his fun fashion statements but also speaking to the need for family and love.
