Will Whitney Way Thore‘s father Glenn be able to fill Babs’ shoes?

My Big Fat Fabulous Life fans absolutely loved and adored Babs Thore. It will be very difficult for fans to adjust to the show without her. However, Whitney believes that her father Glenn will be able to form his own fanbase when the new season kicks off.

As the Thore family adjusts to life without Babs, Glenn Thore will reportedly make a splash this season. What exactly can fans expect from him? Read on to see what Whitney Way Thore has to say.

Whitney Way Thore shines a spotlight on her father

“I joke a lot with my dad. I’ve always said that my mom was the star of the show. This was all just really a vehicle for her to be brought to the world,” Whitney explained in an interview with PEOPLE. “And now that she’s gone, I told Dad, ‘You’re going to have big shoes to fill.’ And I think he actually did.”

MBFFL fans fell in love with Babs’ humor. Whitney says that her father is a “different brand of funny” than Babs was, but he still has a lot to bring to the table. In Season 11, viewers will see Whitney and her brother Hunter try to cheer up their father after Babs’ death.

Losing a spouse can be one of the most challenging and emotionally taxing experiences a person will ever face. Whitney previously said that Glenn mentioned he didn’t want to live without Babs. After hearing that, she and Hunter sprung into action.

“This season was really centered on him and taking care of him and creating his bucket list,” Whitney revealed. “We see a whole new side of Glenn Thore. He’s no longer Glenn Thore, he’s rebranded as GT and he’s a whole new man.”

Fans can tune into the MBFFL premiere and catch up with the Thores

As Whitney Way Thore previously mentioned, Season 11 opens with her mother’s passing and funeral. Without a doubt, it’s going to be a difficult season premiere for viewers. But as the family adjusts to the new normal, fans may just love Glenn as much as they loved Babs.
