My Big Fat Fabulous Life new episode didn’t air, why?

My Big Fat Fabulous Life Season 10, Episode 12 titled, “What Is Love? Lennie Don’t Hurt Me” aired last week. The synopsis for the episode read:

While Whitney and her friends make the most of their remaining time in St. Lucia by participating in a number of different activities, Lennie is nowhere to be found. Whitney is left unsure of how she feels about herself as a result of her concern that he may leave her for his island crush.”

Unfortunately, Season 10, Episode 13 did not air this week. Furthermore, Season 10, Episode 10 of MBFFL will not air next week either. Why? Simply because there isn’t an episode to air. Sadly, there are no new episodes of My Big Fat Fabulous Life for TLC to air. Last week was the Season 10 Finale. Presently, fans are waiting to learn whether the series has been canceled or renewed for another season.

  1. I certainly was bummed that the MBFFL has ended already. What a short season. I was hoping to find out if Whitney and Lennie are a couple. I very much hope there is a season 11 and beyond, and I hope Whitney and Lennie become a romantic couple!!!

      1. I will miss her show terribly but with the death of her mother, I can understand why she wouldn’t want to continue doing the show.

  2. Im super disappointed was waiting to see what happens next. This family brings me joy and laughter when i watch at home. I dont care about her weight . Love her confidence shes an inspiration to me and my teenage daughter.

  3. I too like Whitney suffer from PCOS and I too live in NC, I can relate a lot to Whitney and I have to say I was really bummed to discover there was not another episode as we were all left on a cliff hanger last week, hoping the two past lovers would give love another try so the two can be happy and not be involved in a long distance relationship and experience true happiness. I love being a part of her life in a since as watching her day to day life, which I know probably has taken a toll on her and I’d understand if she chose to live a more quiet simple life but I as others too would be sadden of the absence of being able to watch MBFFL, it’s absolutely inspirational regardless of her weight or her weight loss journey! A part of PCOS is that our weight is constantly up and down, and we struggle with everything that seems to come so easy to other women like birthing our own children. Whitney, you’re not alone and we’re rooting for you!!!! Keep on Keeping on!!! 🥰🤗💓

    1. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS ON T.V.T\ TODAY. ITS FUNNY ,SERIOUS AND DEAL WITH EVERYDAY THINGS WE ALL GO THRU. WHITNEY IS AN INSPORATION TO BIG GIRLS. SHE IS FUNNY WITTIE AND STRONG. HER FAMILY IS JUST GREAT AND SO ARE HER FRIENDS. I WAS SO SORRY TO HEAR OF HER MOMS PASSING. SHE WAS JUST GREAT I THINK SHE WOULD THE SHOW TO GO ON she WAS SO PROUD OF WHITNEY AND HER ACCOMPLIMESMENTS. I HOPE THEY ALL COME BACK WE NEED THESE SHOWS ESPECIALLY AT THIS TIME

  4. I thought they showed previews for the next episode…. guess not. I hope they at least do a reunion, so they can tie up some loose ends for us….Babs health? Whitney and Lennie? French Man and Whitney? It feels like filming was abruptly shut down and not a natural end to a season, at all. I feel very confused and a little cheated!🤔🙄

    1. Please don’t end the show, I feel like it was taken down very oddly! I absolutely love Whitney and her show and what a nasty reason to remove it for, she’s bigger who cares, she’s fun and seems very happy! I think people have grown to love her, her friends and her family! SHAME ON YOU TLC!

  5. You generally know when the season is over simply by watching. This was a strange way to end a season. Somethings going on. I enjoy the show so I hope it continues.

  6. Love the show -Whitney is lucky to have her long time friends and new.
    Especially luv her parents. Hoping her Mother’s health improves.

  7. I look forward to watching Whitney every week and it would be upsetting if you cancelled the show. Why would you even think about doing this? This is a great reality show compared to other TLC reality shows, I, too looked everywhere looking for BF&F this week. Please keep this show on.

  8. I agree with some of the other fans. This is not the normal way TLC does things. There is most DEFINITELY something going on. To say I’m disappointed is putting it mildly! I feel like myself and all the other fans who have grown to love & care about Whitney, her family & friends have just been handed a long walk off a short pier. I hope Whitney & everyone in her life are ok and nothing bad has happened. I hope they return soon.

  9. This sucks!!! I really f******* hate when these tv companies make shows for us to keep up with and watch then they don’t follow through with all the episodes. What is going on anyway? Why did they not show that last episode we were all waiting to see.

  10. Not impressed TLC… stringing fans along and trying to claim the last episode was the season finale? Something happened .. been a dedicated fan since the very first episode, I’m done.

  11. I believe Mom Babs got worst. So I know I would want privacey , I knew at the wedding and Babs getting dolled up she was reliving a time trying to recapature it once more cause she knew. like right now I know what the doctor is going to find is the end. i will pick to be kept comfortable along with Gods hands and will while I enjoy time with my family and friends over quality

  12. BABS WHITNEYS MOM PASSED AWAY AFTER HAVING STROKES. THEY NEED TIME TO GREVE I ALSO HOPE THE SHOW RETURNS IT WAS A HOLSOME SHOW ONE OF VERY FEW TODAY

  13. FIRST OF ALL I WANT TO SEND MY CONDOLENCES TO THE THORE FAMILY. IVE WATCHES THIS SHOW FROM THE BEGINING AND LOVED IT. ITS A NICE CLEAN SHOW WITH HUMOR AND A LITTLE BIT OF DRAMA. WHITNEY IS A BEAUTIFUL GIRL AND HER MOM BABS WAS SUCH A SOUTHERN LADY BUT CAME OUT WITH FUNNY COMMENTS YOU WOULD NEVER EXPECT. YOU CAN TELL WHITNEY AND HUNTER WAS RAISED BY GOOD PARENTS. GLEN AND BABS DID A GOOD JOB. I T WOULD BE ASHAME TO CANCEL THIS SHOW WITH ALL THE JUNK THATS ON NOW. WE NEED GOOD FAMILY SHOWS WITH GOOD FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS AND GOOD MORALS/ PLEASE KEEP THIS SHOW ON

  14. I want to know why the show came to an abrupt end. The last I remember was that Whitney’s father, Glenn, was so taken with his daughter by another woman before his marriage to Babs, that he was contemplating a move to Alabama to be with that illegitimate daughter and her family. I thought that whole thing was ridiculous and unfair to Whitney and Hunter. Why would a man leave his family after Babs’ death when he loved Babs and missed her so? I was pretty disgusted at his quick bounce back after the death of his beloved Babs to desert his “real” family for a daughter he’d fathered out of wedlock and her family. He became downright giddy over Angie and seemed to find fault with Whitney. I thought Glenn was a rock that would never do such a thing! He certainly seemed to get over Babs’ death all of a sudden after he met Angie, his illegitimate daughter, and her family. The whole premise was hard to believe, and his disloyalty to Whitney and Hunter was very hard to take and swallow.
