TLC television personality Whitney Way Thore is best known for her appearances on My Big Fat Fabulous Life.
The TV celebrity moved from Korea to the United States and took a job as a producer on the Greensboro, North Carolina radio show Jared & Katie in the Morning on 107.5 KZL.
The show posted a dance music video titled “A Fat Girl Dancing” on 107.5 KZL’s YouTube page on February 27, 2014. After the video went viral, Thore was able to promote her message of body acceptance and healthy body image.
Whitney Way Thore with her mother, Babs Thore
Obituaries: Babs Thore 2022 Stroke Update
The fact that Babs Thore is still alive reassures MBFFL supporters. Concern over Whitney’s mother’s health was raised by a Season 10 preview segment that People exclusively shared.
In the preview clip, Whitney’s dad, Glenn, spoke to her on the phone and said, “Your mom is going to the hospital with us. It’s awful.” On camera, Whitney said, “My dad called me. He said my mother had suffered a second stroke. The heart of my body had just left it.
Hunter, Whitney’s brother, reported that Whitney was “lying on the couch, unable to communicate”. “When I got here, I was afraid she was dead.”
Another scene from Season 10 featured Whitney crying on the phone with her father.
After her stroke, Babs was moved to intensive care, where she also tested positive for COVID-19 and had a UTI. Because Whitney’s mother was not eating, a feeding tube was eventually placed in her mouth.
What happened to Whitney Thore’s French boyfriend?
In the season before My Big Fat Fabulous Life, Whitney Thore started a new relationship with a Parisian he met online.
In Season 9, the TV personality made numerous allusions to her new love interest, who was only referred to as “the Frenchman” and never actually appeared on the show.
Upcoming episodes of My Big Fat Fabulous Life have fans wondering if Whitney and her French boyfriend are still together and if he’ll make a guest appearance in any of the new episodes.
In brand new footage from the upcoming season, the actress acknowledges her romance with the Frenchman. Her French lover, who currently appears to be in good health, has received no explanation for what happened.
In the clip from an upcoming episode of My Big Fat Fabulous Life, Whitney and her ex-boyfriend Lennie Alehat can be seen talking about her love life. Alehat will be making an appearance in the upcoming season as Thore has hired him to help produce online workout videos.
Babs Thore Age: How Old Is Whitney Thore’s Mom?
Babs Thore was born on June 23, 1946 and is currently 76 years old. Whitney just wished her mom a happy birthday on Instagram and looks younger than she actually is.
Since filming for Season 10 began, hopefully, she’s made tremendous progress since her last meltdown. Our sympathies go out to the Thore family during this difficult time.
Babs’ daughter, Whitney, who is now 38, was born on April 14, 1984. Glenn and Barbara Thore welcomed her into the world in Greensboro, North Carolina.
In 2000, Whitney was admitted to the Governor’s School of North Carolina Summer Theater Enrichment Program at Meredith College.
After graduating in 2002 from Page High School in North Carolina, the TV personality enrolled at Appalachian State University in Boone. After completing her studies, she moved to South Korea to teach English to students.
