Whitney Thore of My Big Fat Fabulous Life has been away from social media for a while, and fans were shocked to see her ex-boyfriend Lennie on her Instagram. Whitney has been looking for love along the way as she discovers herself and deepens connections with those closest to her. Fans are familiar with Whitney's past dating history and troubled relationships, hoping that she will eventually find the love that she deserves. Whitney is a powerful Instagram influencer inspiring fans with her body positivity and teaching others what it means to love yourself.
Even though Whitney is in a relationship with her elusive French boyfriend, fans couldn't help but wonder if there was more to the story. Whitney has never been one to shy away from being upfront and honest about everything in her life, including what is going on in her love life. Sparks flew between Whitney and Lennie early on in the show, and they dated until 2016. When fans started speculating if she and Lennie were back together, she set the record straight.
Viewers love to keep up with Whitney outside of the show as she shares behind-the-scenes glimpses into her life. When Whitney recently shared a montage of photos documenting her life in the absence of social media, fans were quick to notice her ex-boyfriend Lennie in one of the photos sleeping on her couch. Fans started sharing their theories in the hopes that Whitney and Lennie were back together. One user wrote, "Do I see Lennie? Oh, girl spill the tea." Another commented, "I hope you & Lennie are back together as boyfriend & girlfriend!! He's here & he doesn't mind being on camera...just saying!! And he still deeply cares for you!!!" This isn't the first time Whitney has dealt with fake relationship rumors, and she responded to the multitude of comments saying, "We're just friends." One user directly asked if she and the Frenchman were still together or if that was information being saved for the show. She explained that she and her Parisian boyfriend are still together despite what people may think. "No, he's never going to be on tv again, but yes, we're still together."

Whitney has had some rocky relationships in the past, to say the least, but she seems to be happy and in a good place. The fact that she and Lennie have remained friends despite things not working out romantically between them speaks volumes to the power of friendship and the importance of support. Whitney has shared her struggle with anxiety and her devastating heartbreak; the close bond that she shares with her friends and family has helped her navigate those difficult times.
Even though fans may not know everything about her French beau, they ultimately just want her to be happy no matter whom she ends up with. It looks like viewers may be seeing more of Lennie when a new season of My Big Fat Fabulous Life returns. Although Whitney confirmed the Frenchman would not be making any more appearances on TV, hopefully, she will continue to update fans on their relationship.
