Ariel’s surname came from a Hawaiian source, George Duroy says, as he was exotic enough in his looks for this kind of name. “Ariel” comes from George’s very first model, also named Ariel, and his first cover shoot for “Freshmen” magazine in the U.S. fifteen years ago (1994). He was very similar to the current Ariel, who has become very popular on the Bel Ami website. He is Czech, very bisexual and likes to bottom. “That’s what he likes about the gay part of his personality,” George says, “even though he can do both, top and bottom.” He is one of the boys who enjoys shooting and also helping us prepare new models as a “trainer.” Ariel has a very sweet and mellow personality, very cuddly. His mother became concerned about why he was coming to our offices all the time. So Luke Hamill went to visit with her and explain about what her son was doing. “She is okay with it, one of many mothers who know by now,” George laughs. “Right now he is working as a full-time model for Bel Ami and we are planning to do much more with him.” Ariel took a year off from working at BelAmi, only to return as cute as ever in 2016. He is also one of few models to have filmed for us unshaven.
