Whitney Way Thore’s Alleged Half-Brother Reportedly Missing

My Big Fat Fabulous Life fans had heard rumors of a secret half-brother of Whitney Way Thore before the introduction of Angie Burdett. This mysterious sibling seems to have faded from the conversation after Angie’s appearance. Could he still make an appearance in an upcoming season on TLC?

On Reddit, a user claimed that Glenn Thore, Whitney’s father, had a son with his Asian girlfriend, Keiko. This led to speculation about a potential half-brother. However, once Angie, who is widely accepted as part of Whitney’s family, came into the picture, many dismissed the secret brother as a fictional narrative.

Despite the disappearance of original posts about this half-brother, some fans maintained that Glenn might have other children. Given that Angie is now an accepted part of the Thore family, it seems less likely that she is a fraudulent addition to the show.

A discussion on Reddit suggested an intriguing hypothesis: perhaps the rumored half-brother was actually Angie Burdett’s adopted son. This theory arose since all the talk about the brother stopped once Angie was introduced.

…once Angie was introduced, the brother discussions on Reddit completely stopped. Soooo did we all just decide that it was a false statement?? Did Glenn put a boy AND a girl up for adoption but the boy isn’t on the show? Is Angie’s son somehow the boy that everyone was talking about???…

Several Reddit users gave their perspective on the matter:

  • I’m thinking the son that Angie placed for adoption may be where people are getting confused.
  • That poster hasn’t posted here in a long time. They don’t actively watch the show and are more active on other subs now. I don’t think they want to be dragged back into this so that is all I will say.
  • They even said he probably wouldn’t do the show unless TLC offered him a lot of money. SOO Is Angie’s son that she put up for adoption who they were actually referring to??? Seems possible 🤷‍♀️

If Whitney’s rumored half-brother was confused with a son given up for adoption by Angie Burdett, he might eventually appear on the TLC show. Recall that in the final episode of season 11, Glenn discussed moving to Alabama to help Angie find her child.

What are your thoughts on Whitney’s rumored secret half-brother? Do you believe he exists but his story is hidden, or do you think it’s a mix-up involving Angie’s adopted son? Feel free to share your opinions in the comments below and stay tuned for more updates on My Big Fat Fabulous Life.
