'My Big Fat Fabulous Life' Star Whitney Thore's Brother Hunter Meets Online Girlfriend for the First Time in Person (Exclusive Clip)
My Big Fat Fabulous Life viewers have watched Whitney Thore's roller coaster ride of relationship history play out on their screens since 2015. And soon, TLC fans will witness her older brother, Hunter Thore, meet his girlfriend, Karen, for the first time in person.
Ahead of the July 23 episode of MBFFL, TLC shared an exclusive sneak peek clip with Parade of the fateful first meeting between Hunter and a woman he had been talking to online for a year.
"Hey. Wow, you look great," a nervous Hunter said after Karen stepped out of the car, and he saw her for the first time face-to-face.
"Thanks. You look handsome," Karen said with a big smile. "So nice to meet you, finally."
In a confessional with producers, Hunter admitted, "Yo, I'm gonna keep it real. When I first saw Karen, knocked me out. Like, stunner. She looked so beautiful."
He added: "But this is not a regular situation. We've been talking for a little over a year, but this is the first time we're meeting in person."
The feeling, it seemed, was mutual.
"Seeing Hunter for the first time, he's way more attractive than I anticipated," Karen told the camera, away from Hunter. "And it makes me a little nervous. And he seems like he has a good personality in person, so I'm looking forward to spending more time with him tonight."

On April 27, Hunter shared a photo of himself and Karen via Instagram, captioning it with a purple heart emoji. Whitney joked in the comments, "How’d you convince that girl to take a pic with you."
As of writing, however, he hasn't posted any other pictures with Karen—nor has he confirmed whether they're officially in a relationship. It seems MBFFL viewers will have to tune in to see what happens!
