Whitney Thore faced another family loss on the show, and this particular one left us deeply emotional. In 2018, her mother, Barbara “Babs” Thore, welcomed a pet piglet into the family, affectionately named Mr. Pigglesworth. The day when Whitney and her mom went to get him was documented on “My Big Fat Fabulous Life,” and everyone quickly grew attached to the adorable little creature. Mr. Pigglesworth made appearances in several subsequent episodes until he tragically succumbed to a bacterial infection.
Prior to his passing, Thore had encouraged her mom to find a new home for Mr. Pigglesworth, a decision Babs had reservations about. He had outgrown his initial size as a piglet and was becoming challenging to keep in their small yard. After eventually agreeing to rehome him, Babs later regretted the decision, as Mr. Pigglesworth obviously struggled to adapt to the change. When they received the phone call informing them of his untimely death, both Whitney and Babs were overcome with grief, and their heartfelt reaction resonated with viewers.
Under Whitney’s Instagram post announcing Mr. Pigglesworth’s passing, a user left a message of sympathy: “My heart broke for you all. I cried with you, and I am so sorry for your loss.” Despite his short life, the endearing Mr. Pigglesworth managed to capture our hearts during his time with the Thore family.
