Antoni Porowski gave his Instagram followers a dose of yacht life this summer. The Canadian actor and "Queer Eye" star shared eight slides from a Ritz-Carlton Yacht getaway, offering a mix of food snaps, dreamy landscapes, and shirtless moments that sent fans spiraling.
The post pulled over 60,000 likes and hundreds of comments. Admirers were complimenting the view, declaring their love, fantasizing about marriage, and asking Porowski to sign up as their lavender husband.

The opening slide was a shot of shirtless Antoni Porowski on the deck of the yacht, leaning casually against the rails in dark shades. The pose, while effortless, flexed just enough muscle to make fans swoon.
He closed the carousel with another shirtless photo, where he flashed a peace sign and a small smile. "So handsome," a fan complimented. In between, Porowski offered glimpses of yacht life, including a shot of himself in a dark shirt and white swim shorts next to a jacuzzi.
Many fans were enchanted by the scenery of the destination, which wasn't disclosed. A fan hinted the trip was in Mykonos, writing, "Just left Mykonos and saw the ship in front of the island!"

Antoni Porowski's shirtless photo and his "displays of wealth," as one fan puts it, inspired love confessions and proposals in the comments. "When ur ready to be booed up. Lmk," one fan wrote. Another commented, "I love you, husband."
A lovestruck fan asked him to enter a "lavender marriage." For context, a lavender marriage is one where one or both partners are gay or lesbian but tie the knot for companionship or social reasons.
Porowski has previously described himself as sexually fluid, sharing that he has dated both men and women. His public relationships, however, have been with men, explaining why fans seemingly associate him with the gay community.

Porowski gave fans a lot more shirtless views in another carousel. This one spanned 20 slides and featured even more vacation moments. The first slide was a selfie that brought focus to his chiseled chest. Fans also noticed his chest hair, which Porowski jokingly claimed was "glue-ons!" His loyal fans even crowned him "the most beautiful man ever."

Other than being an actor, model, cook, author, and TV personality, Antoni Porowski is also an entrepreneur. He founded a pet supplies brand called Yummers with "Queer Eye" co-host, Jonathan Van Ness, and former Petco executive, Rebecca Frechette Rudisch.
Porowski announced that the brand was born out of love for their pets, with a mission to elevate their diets beyond standard kibble. He often spotlights Yummers on his Instagram, playfully using a voiceover as if spoken by his pit bull mix, Neon.
However, fans have noticed Yummers' Instagram has gone quiet since January. A fan even asked, "Is Yummers still in business?" So far, there's been no reply.
