Your eyes are not deceiving you: William from “Queer Eye” Season 2, Episode 2 is in “Stranger Things 3.” A bunch of times, apparently.
William Mahnken is a “Queer Eye” fan-favorite, having appeared in 2018 episode “A Decent Proposal.” The Fab Five really helped him out last June. Here is that episode’s logline: A scraggly film buff reboots his life — and his non-existent grooming habits — to give his girlfriend an award-worthy marriage proposal.
And here is Mahnken, who on Twitter identifies himself as a screenwriter, actor, husband, father and Uber driver, sharing a shot of himself from the season premiere of “Stranger Things” Season 3:

There’s plenty more William where that came from. Mahnken says he can be found nine times in “Stranger Things.”
Here’s a second shot:
I can be found 9 times in @Stranger_Things

Yeah, he’s the not-kid.
And a third:
Who caught Shannan from @QueerEye looking lovingly at @DavidKHarbour on our date in the second episode of @Stranger_Things?

Yes, that’s Shannan with him. She’s the woman William proposed to on “Queen Eye. They’re married now, and we couldn’t be happier.
