Australian TV personality Beau Ryan mistakenly identified Australian Survivor host Jonathan LaPaglia as Hollywood actor Tom Cruise in a playful Instagram post. Ryan, known for his sense of humor, shared a photo of himself with LaPaglia, jokingly captioning it as "meeting Tom Cruise." Both Ryan and LaPaglia host reality shows on Network Ten. Ryan will next host the revival of Gladiators alongside Liz Ellis in early 2022. Regarding his fitness routine, Ryan revealed that he trains at least five times a week and enjoys circuit workouts and swimming in the ocean. He emphasized the importance of physical appearance and well-being in his life as a former athlete.

Although he follows a healthy lifestyle, Ryan also enjoys celebrating on special occasions with a drink, noting that his wife usually does most of the drinking for their family. Despite the mix-up with LaPaglia's identity, Ryan and LaPaglia are known to be friends and had a friendly interaction during their selfie.
