‘My Big Fat Fabulous Life’: Whitney Thore Defends Decision to Fire Ashley Baynes
My Big Fat Fabulous Life star Whitney Thore was steaming mad after fans raged at her for firing Ashley Baynes. The MBFFL diva had plenty to say to TLC fans that started blasting her.
My Big Fat Fabulous Life: Whitney Thore Not Sorry about Firing Ashley
Whitney had not told her friend, Ashley Baynes, that she might be out of a job. In fact, the whole thing came up on My Big Fat Fabulous Life. Ashley said she didn’t want to talk to her friend about it right away and needed to calm down.
Ashley said that was a terrible way to learn that her opportunity was totally gone. Whitney kept defending herself and saying she didn’t even know if she would move forward with the app. As of right now, there is no sign of the app, so it might not even happen.
However, Ashley Baynes prepared for the rug to come out from under her on My Big Fat Fabulous Life. Whitney Thore snapped at fans, saying that her friend still cares about her and she still has a full-time job elsewhere. She said nothing was wrong and she and all of her friends were very happy with each other.
Ashley Baynes Furious with Whitney on MBFFL
Despite Whitney Thore saying everything is good with her My Big Fat Fabulous Life pal, some viewers think she is oblivious. Ashley was obviously very upset with her for convincing her to take this job and then taking it away. She said she wished Whitney’s big opportunity didn’t have to take away her big opportunity.
Ashley Baynes did go to get pedicures with her friend group, but she was very short with Whitney. Not only that, viewers said it seemed like she was trying to throw a hitch in the Heather Sykes surrogate plan. She kept bringing up how hard it would be and saying she didn’t think she could do it.
Whitney, on the other hand, continued to downplay how difficult it would be to be a surrogate on My Big Fat Fabulous Life. She said Heather would just be “Uncle Heather,” and she could move away at any time. Both Heather and her friend Ashley looked terrified at that thought.
@whitneywaythore WOW! You are a hunk of shit for a “boss”. The way you handled firing your best friend was some of the most brutal, sloppy and mismanaged HR I have ever seen. Compassion much? Self-centred af. YOU OWE HER MUCH, MUCH BETTER THAN THAT!!!
