Ashley Baynes Talks About Not Being In ‘MBFFL’
Recently, My Big Fat Fabulous Life star, Ashley Baynes, talked about not being in the show. While there are always speculations about Ashley and Whitney Way Thore’s status, the show has continued without her being part of it. Now, Ashley discusses her absence.
Ashley Baynes Has Been MIA
Lately, My Big Fat Fabulous Life star, Ashley Baynes, has stayed extremely busy with her personal life. During episodes of MBFFL, fans knew she was having babies and seemingly growing apart from Whitney Way Thore. Although they didn’t have a huge public falling out, it became more and more evident that Ashley was moving away from the show.
MBFFL Focuses More On Whitney’s New Found Family
Additionally, MBFFL took a turn toward focusing less on Whitney’s friends and dove into the newest subject, Whitney’s long-lost sister Angie. Furthermore, there were plenty of materials for TLC to work with since Angie has her family. Additionally, Glenn Thore was also willing to connect with his estranged daughter. Even so, when Whitney’s friends were together in the last season, sadly, Ashley Baynes was nowhere to be seen.
Ashley Baynes Updates Fans About MBFFL
In January, Ashley Baynes let My Big Fat Fabulous fans know she had a huge promotion. While she was extremely, professional in her post, Ashley still broke the silence on her status with MBFFL. Along with the news of her personal life taking off, she addresses rumors about her being on MBFFL or as she says, “the lack thereof.”
After she posted on Instagram, she also replied with beautiful grace to her fans for their support. She says, “You guys are amazing. The way you all just swooped in and validated the ‘loving and supportive people’ part of my post with your words of affirmation and kindness 🥹 You are an enormous part of the good I see every day in the/my world and ON THE INTERNET NO LESS (so brutal). I’m so grateful. So many family members and old coworkers and classmates in these comments 🥰 I love you. Thank you for shining your light ☀️.”
Fans Weigh In On Her Departure
While some Redditors distinctly remember the initial post, others were pleasantly surprised to see Ashley Baynes taking steps to build her life away from MBFFL. First, a user posts, “Ashley confirms departure from MBFFL.” Then they attach a screengrab of Ashley’s announcement.
- “Seriously wishing her all the best.”
- “Her friends are dropping like flies it looks like. I’m wondering if the show will be picked up for another season.”
- But another fan points out Whitney Way Thore has plenty to work with TLC for more seasons. Saying, “She’s got a whole new family for source material now.”

- “Life gets busy people have careers family I maybe have two friends from my school days that I still talk to and I may see them twice a year. Perfectly normal for her to move on what is abnormal is when you’re still living like your 22 when you’re 40.”
- “I adore Ashley and wish her the best!”
