Carson Kressley and Thom Filicia have been friends before "Queer Eye For the Straight Guy" was on TV, according to a 2018 Bravo report.

"We actually met at the gym, which is unbelievable because these bodies were built on rigatoni. And then we did 'Queer Eye,' so we we're great friends ... and we're more like brothers and we kind of grew up together in New York City ... no, we have never been romantically involved. We're pretty good finding dates for one another," Carson said.

Thom said that although they have never been romantic together, the men both loved being each other's wingman. "We kind of help [each other meet people]. It's very funny, you know; it's easier to talk to someone you're not flirting with so I'm really good. I can help him out when he's being a little shy," he told the outlet.

Working together seemed like another extension of friendship for these two and Thom seems to cherish the fun moments with Carson. "We have a great friendship. He's a great entertainer. He's hilarious," Thom said, per The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
