'MBFFL' Star Whitney Way Thore Responds to Pregnancy Rumors After Photo Has Fans Doing a Double Take

Reality star Whitney Way Thore has been an open book since the premiere of her show My Big Fat Fabulous Life — especially when it comes to her love life.

However, even Whitney can be a victim of rumors.

After sharing a photo with fans on Instagram, Whitney had to clear the speculation, after many believed she was showing off a baby bump on social media.

In the caption of the photo where Whitney can be seen seated wearing a flowing green dress, she wrote, "I’ve been bombarded with people asking if I’m pregnant in this photo or what’s under my dress. It’s just my knees, y’all."

She went on to add, "Definitely still not pregnant…for now!"

Fans came to her defense, calling out followers who continue to comment on women's bodies. "People need to use whatever brain cells they have left before commenting on anything," one person wrote before another added, "Thanks for clarifying for those rudely asking."

In 2018, Whitney went to an adoption agency on her TLC to inquire about adopting a baby from South Korea, where she previously taught English.

However, she sadly learned that her marital status, or lack of husband, would make it extremely difficult for her to adopt from that country.

It was also revealed South Korea has a BMI requirement, which would also make Whitney ineligible. Whitney went on to freeze her eggs in 2021, but was feeling a bit defeated in 2023 about the possibility of having kids.

"My goal would have always been to have a child with a partner. Single motherhood is probably not something that I'm interested in," she told E! News at the time. "It's hard to come to terms with feeling like that really, legitimately is not going to happen. And that, for me, biologically pretty soon it will be an impossibility. And then that's just it, it's done."

However, her Instagram post reveals she's seemingly had a change of heart and pregnancy is something she is still looking forward to.
