‘1000-Lb Best Friends’ Vannessa Talks Bonding With New Cast
After Tina Arnold’s exit, TLC decided to add two new cast members to 1000-Lb Best Friends Season 3. This year, a man named Scott and a different woman named Tina are part of the cast. The other women meet them in Dr. Procter’s support group and it seems that Vannessa Cross formed an instant connection with them.
In a new interview, Vannessa spoke candidly about her new castmates and how they keep each other motivated. Read on to get the scoop.
Vannessa Cross Loves The New 1000-Lb Best Friends Cast Members
Adding new cast members to an already-established show comes with some growing pains. Vannessa Cross warmly welcomed Scott and Tina into her friend group. More than anything, Vannessa wants to help people with their weight loss journeys.
According to Vannessa, Scott and Tina sincerely help her too. During the fall-out with Meghan Crumpler and Ashely Sutton, Vannessa came to rely on the newcomers for friendship and motivation.
“Honey, Scott and Tina, they are amazing,” Vannessa shared in a new interview with Access Hollywood. “I found so much support with Scott that even though I had lost Meghan and Ashely there for a while, I was able to reach out to Scott, I was able to reach out to Tina and talk with them and get a lot of support from them that I wasn’t getting from Meghan and Ashely.”
The New Cast Members Are Sticking To Their Goals
Some of the 1000-Lb Best Friends cast members are struggling with their weight loss goals. But Vannessa excitedly shared that Tina and Scott are absolutely crushing their programs.
“Seeing Scott and Tina’s motivation and how they went from losing the weight they needed, having the surgery, and how amazing they are doing, we have supported each other a lot more than I ever thought anybody would. Me being able to motivate Scott has made him to where he is doing amazing,” Vannessa continued.
She went on to share she couldn’t share specific numbers, but both Scott and Tina have made amazing progress on Dr. Procter’s program. Vannessa even shared that Tina is more rigorous with her diet and exercise plan than she ever was.
“Dr. Procter’s group, that was a genius idea because it helped us meet people that we never would have met in real life,” the TLC star continued. “I love the dynamics between me and Scott because he accepts me for who I am.”
