My Big Fat Fabulous Life: Whitney Way Thore Talks About Dating, Friendship Drama & Season 13 Shifts

Whitney Way Thore has always been an iconic figure. She has set the bar too high for many people to be a source of hope. She recently opened up about her dating life, revealing that she went on a blind date in the latest episode and is still searching for the right partner. Whitney shared that she’s looking for someone who is emotionally intelligent and can be an equal partner in every sense. As an independent woman who can support herself financially and otherwise, she said, “ I want someone who can simply look out for me and offer a sense of protection.”

In a recent interview with Access Hollywood, the star of My Big Fat Fabulous Life also addressed the changing dynamics among her close friends, Tal, Buddy, and Ashley. Whitney noted that, for once, she’s enjoying how the audience is focusing on other relationships, as she has always been the centre of attention.

Whitney added that some friendships might even reconcile over time, but that would only unfold as Season 13 continues.

My Big Fat Fabulous Life: Whitney Way Thore Shares Her Motherhood Journey & Father’s Heartfelt Support

Whitney Way Thore also opened up about exploring motherhood in Season 13 of My Big Fat Fabulous Life. At 41, she decided to pursue artificial insemination. She mentioned, “Unfortunately, you need a partner, but if you don’t have that luxury, you can always choose another option.” Her decision has inspired many women, especially those who silently face societal pressure and shame for taking charge of their own lives. Whitney hopes that these conversations around motherhood become more normalised and that the taboos are finally broken.

The emotional weight of her journey became even more evident when her first attempt didn’t work out. She admitted she had assumed it would work out, saying, “I thought it would go through.” Although her contract required her to share everything, Whitney said she was grateful not to go through it alone. Without revealing too much, she confirmed that her motherhood journey is not yet over.

Whitney also spoke about the strong support she received from her father and brother. She called her dad the most respected and loved man she knows and said he has been her emotional rock. Her father, too, was a bit disappointed, as he was excited to join her in this new chapter as a grandfather. Still, this experience brought them even closer, and Whitney said, “This whole turnaround has made me happy.”

Reality TV has allowed Whitney to connect deeply with her audience, showing them how to face life’s challenges with strength and openness. When asked to describe Season 13 in three words, she responded: “Drama, sisterhood, and excitement.” For the latest updates on Whitney’s journey, stay tuned to TV Season & Spoilers.
