Lennie Alehat came and went on My Big Fat Fabulous Life for years, but some TLC fans had no idea that he had a sordid past, but he turned his life around. Whether that’s thanks to his sometimes too-intimate friendship with his boss, Whitney Way Thore, or not, isn’t clear. Whichever way he did it, fans cheer for him. For once, a good news story arrives from MBFFL.
MBFFL Lennie Alehat Could Have Married Whitney Way Thore
If Whitney and her boyfriend hadn’t broken up, TLC fans might not have had to sit through years of watching her hunt for a man. At one stage, she thought she fell pregnant even though the chances of that were slim. Well, she didn’t have a baby and her boyfriend cheated on her. However, she still seems to be very affectionate towards her friend. Mind you, given his sordid past, some people, wonder how she ended up in his circle in the first place.
Lennie Alehat is not his real name. Did you know That? According to a seven-year-old report by Radar Online, his real name is Nathaniel David Lee. If you take all the letters from his name and rearrange them, you end up with his alias which he is known by on My Big Fat Fabulous Life. How candid was he with Whitney about his name and his past? Perhaps TLC fans will never know for sure.

More followed and it turned out that the My Big Fat Fabulous Life support character “… threatened two individuals back in July 2016.”
TLC Fans Support For Lennie Alehat
In the comments, people felt that the OP dragged up an old story unnecessarily:
- The most recent arrest was 13 years ago and the dui was 15 years ago. Sounds like he hit a rough patch in life but then got better.
- I mean, he is sober and in recovery now. A lot of people do terrible things while in active addiction, that they wouldn’t do sober.
- He obviously had issues with alcohol, hasn’t he been sober for awhile now? Good for him.
- I think it is unfair to judge him for this especially considering he is sober now.
- I mean 13 years ago. Can the past stay in the past.
