My Big Fat Fabulous Life: Ashley Baynes Sees Whitney Thore Less
Ashley Baynes has been a big part of Whitney Thore’s life over the years. The two have been through many good and bad times together. They are always there for each other when they need help, advice, or a shoulder to cry on. And viewers saw their close friendship on the show.
However, many My Big Fat Fabulous Life viewers have noticed that Ashley hasn’t been as involved in the show as she used to be. She was on many episodes in the past. But that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore. In the last season, she was not seen at all. So, fans were speculating if she and Whitney were no longer friends.
Ashley Confirms Split from Whitney’s Show
Ashley confirms that she did step away from Whitney’s show. She explains that in 2019, she made a “very uncomfortable decision” to leave a company she was with for 14 years. She took a significant pay cut, hoping it would create a more fulfilling path. Two years later, she got a promotion in her new company. A couple of years later, she got another promotion again when her boss retired.
The My Big Fat Fabulous Life reality star sees the comments from fans about her lack of appearance on the show. She also sees all the “wild conspiracies.” However, she says that it’s true she won’t be on the show anymore. But she doesn’t think it’s a bad thing in her life.
Ashley has a new job, two “amazing littles, a partner to love,” and “a household to run.” She had to find balance, and that meant leaving Whitney and the show.
My Big Fat Fabulous Life Celeb Grateful for Experience
Ashley Baynes admits that she is an introvert. She explains that being on reality television wasn’t really for her. Even sharing her life with people online is hard for her to do. She loves reading people’s success stories. But when it comes to her life’s accomplishments, she has a hard time sharing them publicly. So, being on the show with Whitney Thore was hard.
However, the My Big Fat Fabulous Life cast member is grateful for “every ounce of goodness” that came from being on the reality television show with a good friend. She is thankful that she got to experience a “community of loving and supportive people” like fans of the show.
Many fans are sad to see Ashley leave the show. However, they are supportive of her decision. One person says they will miss the “calm spirit and level head” she brought to the show. Another person feels she was “so down to earth and felt like a friend to everyone.” But will she make small appearances in future episodes with Whitney?
