Gay romance blossoms on ‘America’s Next Top Model’?
By Sam Rigby
Will Jardell and Matthew Smith are two reasons why you should tune in to America’s Next Top Model, when the latest cycle of Tyra Banks’s reality series reaches the UK in the coming months.
US fans of the show are only five episodes into the 21st season (!), but Will and Matthew have already caused quite a stir.
Will, 23, is gay and Matthew, 24, is straight, but that hasn’t stopped things getting flirty between the pair.
Despite Matthew protesting that he is straight, the pair kissed during a house party, but unfortunately it wasn’t caught on camera. The rest of the models were left quite confused by Matthew’s actions, but he responded by saying that he “stands for no labels”.
In the latest episode, Tyra paired Will and Matthew up for a sexy commercial, which went down very well with the judges.
Fans of the show have christened the pair ‘Willthew’…
Take a look at some GIFs from the pair’s shoot, and then watch the final commercial below:

America’s Next Top Model airs on Sky Living in the UK. The 20th cycle is currently airing on Thursdays at 8pm.
