Of course, the whole point of Queer Eye is to remind us of the power of empathy and human connection. By the end of the episode Guilbeaux had a new haircut, a new apartment and a newfound willingness to reach out to others. She had also found a kindred spirit in the best and most criminally underrated member of the Fab Five, Bobby Berk, who was also adopted as a baby and left home as a teenager.

And now, Guilbeaux has more proof of the power of human kindness. Queer Eye fans have raised more than $96,000 to help her get back to university, after a viewer set up a GoFundMe page titled ‘Send Jess Back to College!’
