A crown, a grand prize of £50,000, and now also a boyfriend!
After being crowned the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK vs the World season 2 on the BBC, it seems like Tia Kofi is living her absolute best life — and we love that for her!
In an Instagram story post from Thursday, Apr. 4, Tia shared a picture of herself and a mystery new man roaming the streets of Lisbon, Portugal. The newly-crowned Queen of the Mother-Tucking World wrote in the post:
“Hard launch [smiling face with hearts emoji].”

Dedicated Drag Race UK fans know that Tia was previously in a five-year relationship with Pixie Polite — a drag queen who went on to compete in season 4 of the UK series. They broke up by the time that Pixie competed on the show, but said nothing but lovely things about her ex.
Despite being season 4 costars, it seems like Pixie has had a contentious relationship with season 4 costar Jonbers Blonde. So, when Jonbers went on to compete on UK vs the World with Tia, those weird dynamics between Jonbers and Tia’s ex ended up coming to the surface. Tia said in the season that she’d always have her ex’s back, and Jonbers brought up that conversation in the reunion episode.
Nonetheless, it’s clear that Tia has now moved on with a new man. We still don’t know much about him, but Tia seems happy, and that’s all that matters.
Tia Kofi, you will always be famous!
All episodes of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK vs the World season 2 are now streaming on WOW Presents Plus.
