What Did The Hometown Heroes Say In Favor Of Jonathan Van Ness?

Cory Waldrop, who participated in Queer Eye's first season, revealed that he wasn't completely aware of the allegations, but Jonathan Van Ness appeared on the same on-and-off camera. He also recalled that the hairstylist was sweet enough to let him cut the line at the production's food truck while the camera was rolling.

Apart from Waldrop, William Mahnken, who was a cast member in Queer Eye's season 2, shared that the TV personality did not offend anyone on the sets of the show while he was present. Mahnken revealed that he shares some fond memories with Van Ness.

On similar lines, Michael Richard II of season 7 claimed that Jonathan was "always bright and nice" and caused no problems while shooting. "He seemed well-liked by everybody," Richard II said, feeling no tension between the Fab Five. 

Ryan Dyer of Queer Eye season 5 confessed that Jonathan Van Ness was quite an attention seeker amongst the group, but that was no problem with the production team or anyone else on the sets. However, the crew members had quite contrasting views about the hairstylist.
