There are celebrity comparisons, and then there are ones that stop you in your tracks. Bryce is celebrating a summer of thrills after winning Season 8 alongside his girlfriend, Trinity Tatum, and as he settles back in Los Angeles, he has connected with one of the queens of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

Ever since the Season 8 Islanders returned home and to their mobile devices, fans have been in no shortage of thirst traps from them. Like on July 28, when Bryce debuted a new haircut with a video on TikTok, posing shirtless while messing around with his fresh trim.

Aside from the dozens of comments from fans about Bryce's romance with Trinity, the post caught the attention of none other than Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Rinna, who couldn't help but pull her husband, Harry Hamlin, into the chat, commenting on his resemblance to the Love Island USA star. 

"I don't want to come across as a stalker, but I do think you look so much like my husband that you could be the son that we never had," Rinna wrote on TikTok. "Hi and nice to meet you and congratulations on winning Love Island. I know my girls will cringe that I did this but whatever."

Love Island USA fans agree that Bryce looks like Lisa Rinna's husband Harry Hamlin

A split of Bryce Alakai and Harry Hamlin.

To give credit where it's due, Rinna has a point. If you search images of "Harry Hamlin young," you will find a flurry of charming photos of Hamlin looking like he could stroll into the Love Island Villa any minute. Could it be that Bryce Alakai or his parents are some long-lost relative of Rinna's husband? Likely not, but fans can't help but chuckle at Rinna's pointing out the resemblance between the two heartthrobs.

Rinna's comment on Bryce's TikTok video garnered over a thousand responses from fans, many of whom agreed with the RHOBH star's observation. 

"Gosh he really does look like he could be his Dad," one fan commented, while another said, "Wow he really does."

"Wait I see it omg," one more wrote, as yet another agreed, "Wait that’s so crazy they look alike wth."
