'My Big Fat Fabulous Life': Does Buddy Bell's breakup spell doom for his friendship with Whitney Way Thore?
Buddy Bell and Whitney Thore (TLC)

Whitney Way Thore was right about her best friend Buddy Bell. In an episode of 'My Big Fat Fabulous Life' that aired two weeks ago, Buddy bombarded Whitney with the news that he had found someone and was no longer single. She was taken aback by this information as the two of them had just recently renegotiated a friendly contract that stated that they'd marry each other if they had reached a certain age and were still single. Soon after, the two and the rest of their group had taken a holiday to a lake house where Buddy invited his girlfriend Brittany Sherman where he introduced her to everyone in person.

Whitney seemed happy to meet her but the rest of the group could sense some jealousy brewing. In a confessional, Whitney had said that Buddy had a tendency to move too fast too much in relationships and most of them end as quickly as they start. She had brought it up with Buddy in the recent episode (Jan 5) who in turn tells her that he has already said "I Love You" to Brittany and that he heard it back from her. The two had committed to each other just after a few dog-walking dates and professed love in a very short time and even considered living with each other, something that Whitney saw as a red flag but Buddy chose to ignore.
