Whitney Thore, the star of TLC's My Big Fat Fabulous Life, is stepping in to clarify the recent health concerns surrounding her father, Glenn Thore. Following a flurry of online speculation – including false rumours of his passing – Whitney is setting the record straight, offering fans an exclusive update on her dad’s well-being.

The internet is a breeding ground for misinformation, and the Thore family has been a recent target. Rumors began circulating rapidly, claiming that Glenn had tragically died. Naturally, this caused immense distress for Whitney, her family, and their loyal fanbase.

“It’s been a really difficult time,” Whitney shared exclusively with [Your Publication Name]. “Seeing these false reports about my dad online is incredibly upsetting. He’s a fighter, and he’s facing some challenges, but he’s very much alive and receiving the care he needs.”

While Whitney is understandably protective of her father’s privacy, she did reveal that Glenn has been dealing with ongoing health issues. She’s chosen not to disclose specific details out of respect for his privacy and to avoid further speculation. However, she emphasized the importance of focusing on his strength and resilience.

“My dad is a remarkable man,” Whitney continued. “He’s always been my rock, and I’m incredibly grateful to have him in my life. I know he appreciates the outpouring of love and support from everyone, even though he’s not able to respond directly to everything right now.”

The My Big Fat Fabulous Life series has always been lauded for its authenticity and open portrayal of Whitney’s life, including her struggles with weight and body image. This latest situation highlights the importance of verifying information before sharing it online and respecting the privacy of individuals and families facing difficult times.

Whitney’s message is clear: don’t believe everything you read online. She’s asking fans to send positive thoughts and prayers to her father and to refrain from spreading further misinformation. The family is focused on Glenn’s recovery and appreciates the continued support from their community.
