The same day Whitney asked Ashley to join the fitness business, she got a promotion at her job. So, that makes the firing worse. But, Whitney had begged the My Big Fat Fabulous Life castmate to continue to work for her. According to Ashley, it feels like she only needed her until she didn’t anymore.
Ashley is curious to find out how long this app has been a possibility and why Whitney Thore wouldn’t have told her about it when she found out. As an employee, the My Big Fat Fabulous Life TLC star is disappointed. Yet, as a friend, she is angry. She would rather be happy for her friend. But, instead, she got blindsided.
‘My Big Fat Fabulous Life’ Celebs at Odds?
Whitney Thore’s business partner, Jessica Powell, joins the meeting on MBFFL. She finds out that Ashley Baynes is only hearing about the app now. Jessica feels bad for her since she has been such a big help to No BS Active. She was so excited about the opportunity that she didn’t realize she was taking an opportunity away from Ashley.
Whitney understands where Ashley is coming from. The My Big Fat Fabulous Life reality star hopes her good friend can see that she wasn’t coming from a bad place or had bad intentions. She just didn’t want to say anything until it was a done deal.
Ashley Baynes feels that Whitney made it sound like she was the only person she wanted to do the administrative work for her. She also feels that the My Big Fat Fabulous Life celeb made the position sound long-term. Whitney had even sold her on what she could do with all the extra money she would make.
Ashley Baynes from My Big Fat Fabulous Life knows that Whitney Thore is her boss, but it never felt like it until now. She now knows why people say you should never work with your friends. With the app launching next month, did Whitney let Ashley go – or is she still a part of the team?
