Jeff Lewis's Team Observes His Improved Demeanor When Boyfriend Ty Visits
Colleagues note that the reality star is "nicer" and on his "best behavior" when his long-distance partner is in town.
Jeff Lewis's personal and professional life is under the microscope in the latest episode of Bravo's "Still Flipping Out." In an exclusive clip, Lewis and his staff discuss the noticeable positive impact his boyfriend, Ty, has on him, particularly when Ty visits.
During a conference room discussion, Lewis's friend Justin Sylvester commented on the dynamic, joking that Lewis's team was keeping Ty "hostage" to ensure Lewis's good behavior. Lewis confirmed that Ty's presence often leads to a more pleasant demeanor from him. "It's so true," Lewis agreed, acknowledging that his team can tell when Ty is around. "I can tell when he’s here," Sylvester added, noting that Lewis is "nicer when you’re with him."
Lewis's social media manager, Annie, and chief of staff, Shane, echoed these sentiments. "We love when Ty is in town because Jeff is on his best behavior. He’s the nice, fun, cool Jeff, which is great," Shane stated in a confessional. Annie further elaborated that Ty is "Jeff’s sanity."
Despite the positive observations from his colleagues, Lewis acknowledged the challenges of a long-distance relationship. "Remember, our relationship is long-distance. It’s not reality," Lewis said in his confessional. "And I’m a lot."
Annie suggested that Lewis might be his "real" self when he is with Ty, implying that his less pleasant interactions might be reserved for his team. The team shared a laugh at this notion.
Ty is expected to visit on Thursday. The episode airs Monday at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
