Redditors dissect Meghan Crumpler’s reasons for living with the Arnolds

Although all the women on 1000-Lb Best Friends are close, Tina Arnold and Meghan Crumpler seem to share a deeper kind of connection. Tina and her husband have four kids at home, but they made space for Meghan and her fiance Jon to move in as well.

This season, a pipe burst in Tina’s house, forcing all eight people to live in one hotel room while repair crews worked on the damaged home. It was a chaotic situation to say the least, but many viewers began to wonder why Meghan and Jon needed to live with the Arnolds in the first place.

“Does anyone know why Megan has to live with Tina?” one Redditor asked online this week. No one seemed to have any concrete answers. However, several other 1000-Lb Best Friends viewers seemed to think codependency was involved. Meghan and Tina are remarkably close and even attended an appointment with Dr. Procter together.

“Other than being a self centered, irresponsible leech…no, I don’t know,” one Reddit user wrote back.

“Not only does she live with Tina, it appears Tina is her chauffeur as well…so she not only doesn’t have a place of her own, she doesn’t seem to have a car or drive herself either…” another fan wrote.

1000-Lb Best Friends viewers are getting tired of one star

As indicated in the previously referenced Reddit thread, viewers are growing tired of Meghan Crumpler. They once admired her resilience and strength, but this season she’s been incredibly combative. She doesn’t seem willing to work with Dr. Procter and even stormed out of his office on one occasion.

But while Meghan crumbles, Vannessa Cross seems to soar — some fans even suspect Meghan is jealous of her friend’s success. Fans are amazed that she’s gone above and beyond over the past year to push past her goals. They’re excited to see what Vannessa accomplishes next.

  1. I think Meghan needs to move out of Tina’s home and let Tina and her husband work on their family. She is really taking advantage of Tina’s good nature. She is a grown woman and needs to act like one. If she was a true friend she would see the damage she is causing Tina and move out!!! Tina is not her mother, and Meghan is really pushing it to the limit. Shame on her!!!!

    1. Totally ag ree with what you said. Meghah is taking advantage of her friendship with Tina; what are they going to do if and when she & Jon ever get married??? Why are they taking advantage of their friendships w/
      Tina &’her husband ??? Does Megan have a job like the rest of us??? Does her fiancé have a job?? Get off your butts & start looking for an apartment!!!

      1. I get that Megan was or is still on Disability due to her Health and weight struggles. But this fiancé of hers…wtf!? Why is this grown man only working part-time and living with people he only knows through his fiancé. Are they gonna move into Tina’s basement after the wedding they can’t afford?? Why is he okay with being so pathetic?? Tina and her Husband are Megan’s friends, not his. Where is his pride??

  2. Yes, I’m going to ask the same question. Why would two grown ass adults not have jobs and live on their own instead of taking advantage of friends? The answer? Laziness and self-centeredness. Grow up Meghan and John!

  3. Meghan is prolonging marriage because she knows that she will need to move out. She lost the weight to be mobile so why is she still there

  4. Meghan wants to be the center of the show, and of their group. She has no shame to be taking full advantage of her “best friend”.

  5. Meghan and Jon are just lazy ass people. She put her self in this spot shoving food in her mouth instead push her self away from the table. And saying pore me. Feel sorry for me.

  6. I used to really like her, but she become a whiny, demanding clueless freeloader. Her thinking the living arrangements were permanent is ridiculous. Tina should have told her when they were still in the hotel.
    Megan pees in the tub, she use to pee on the floor, nope, nope, nope. She’s the Debbie Downer of the group that married an adult adolescent. Work from home. You can go on retreats, walk a 5k, and work out, but you’re too ill to spend 6 hours a day making money from home. But,
    It is so much easier to mooch
