Nathan Turner...or Kevin Austin?

Have you been watching Million Dollar Decorators? I've been lapping up every delicious minute of it, though occasionally it has been a little too much like watching my life go by. I'm no MDD, but I work with some (though not the ones on the show) and immerse myself in their work every day. There's one other familiar aspect to the show which has been revealing itself to me ep by ep. Um, I'm pretty sure Nathan Turner and my husband might be the same person. I mean, I've never seen them together in the same place so....you be the judge:
Nathan Turner: boyish good looks, pursed-lip smile, sandy hair szhuszhed up in the front, short back and sides, prep style, sun-kissed complexion
Kevin Austin: boyish good looks, pursed-lip smile, sandy hair szhuszhed up in the front, short back and sides, prep style, sun-kissed complexion

There are a few differences. Off the top -- Kevin is straight, which is great for our marriage. Kevin isn't a decorator per se, but he can more than hold his own on matters of design. I think Nathan might be a bit shorter than Kevin's 6ft 3in, but I don't know for sure. So, I'll be keeping my eyes on the MDDs and watching for more screen time for Kevin, er, I mean, Nathan, in upcoming eps....Meanwhile, if you ever see them in the same room, let me know.

I think he looks like me not the other way around and if MDD comes to Canada I'll take that role.
HAHAHA! You're hilarious. But I will pander to your whims and tell you Kevin has nicer eyes!
You made me smile, yes I can see the similarity, and thankfully some differences, lucky you!
Love this! You are truly charming Margot!
TOO HILARIOUS ! Who says a gal can't have two husbands, one on each team Le T.
Love it! Both are cuties, that's for sure!
I immediately noticed the similarities upon watching the show! ;) But I hadn't realized the extent of those similarities. (I noticed looks + running a cool shoppe as the obvious similarities)
Hilarious post! Not sure which boy is cuter, but Kevin was definitely charming and friendly when my husband and I visited his shoppe for the first time in June.
A-MAZING. And an infinitely more favourable comparison than the one you always made with me (namely, the nerd from "Big Bang Theory") LOL
but Bea, I love Sheldon! He's so cute and smart-assy.
