With so many great programs featuring queer characters on TV right now, T.K. Strand on Fox’s “9-1-1: Lone Star” can get lost in the mix. That would be unfortunate, as actor Ronen Rubinstein has brought a great sensibility to the role. Rubinstein’s chemistry with Rafael L. Silva as fellow first responder Carlos Reyes has generated plenty of online publicity, replete with the ship name, Tarlos. Fans enjoy the authenticity and trials the couple goes through, and it has generated interest in the actors’ personal lives.

Rubinstein is openly bisexual, adding to the list of actors who have played queer characters and drawn from their real-life sexualities to do so. We want to help you get to know Rubinstein a little better with a collection of his best Instagram posts across the years. Some are thirsty. Some are sentimental. All are sure to be interesting!
