My parents died 43 days apart. My mom went first then when my dad passed my brain shut down. I was still grieving for my mom and I just couldn't bear my dad being gone too. It has been 12 years and I have grieved for my dad finally. I am at peace now but it is hard!!
They were like lovebirds. I'm so sorry, I wish I can give you a big hug.
My parents were high school sweethearts and died less than 2 weeks apart. I understand the hell that is! I still feel orphaned. God bless you and I hope you continue to feel better.
My parents were married for 63 1/2 years. Dad died in November 2022 and mom 5 months later in April 2023. Its devastating. Not sure how I’m going to get over this. Will definitely take the rest of my life. The worst thing about all of this is that from April 2022 until today October 2023, I have lost 6 family members, 3 dear friends and 2 long time acquaintances. 11 people is just too many in what seems all at once. 😢😢💔💔
@@mspfinneyMy God!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Loss is TRAUMA! Hope the family takes care of themselves. So sorry for their loss!
She was an awesome lady! RIP 😔
RIP Babs. * hugs* to Whitney. I lost my mom. in 2011. You loose a part of yourself. 🙏 to their family.
Thank you Whitney for bringing your momma into our homes and hearts, she was a true Southern Belle...may she Rest in Eternal Paradise❤
Hope your Dad is healing from his accident.
I lost my dad when I was 14. I barely remember his funeral. I remember bits and pieces but it’s all like looking through a black tunnel. My heart broke for Whitney when she said “Bye mommy”😢
Losing a parent is an almost universal experience. Whitney’s story ,ay help others deal with their own process.
So sorry to hear about her lovely mom. Her mom was elegant and so funny. Sending Whitney prayers of comfort for her and her family.🙏🏾
Thanks for letting us say goodbye to your mom. It was so sad hearing of her passing. We all loved her. Big hug to Glenn ❤
I have watched this show from the beginning and fell in love with her Mom and Dad. Whitney was very generous to let us be there with her family at her Moms funeral. Her brothers speech about his Mom, letting him fly, brought me to tears because I did the same thing with my son, who I lost in 2018. Thank you Whitney, Hunter and Glen Thore.
God Bless you and give you strength.
Omg I'm sorry to hear about her mom passing 😨😨😨
I personally appreciate her sharing…thank you. She was like family to us too like you are🙏🏽☝🏾
Grief is a journey, grief is the love that you had for that person.
Give your dad time, there is no timeline. He will be done grieving when he is, not a year. Let him grieve in his own way on his own terms.
Thank you for sharing this…..
We loved Babs SO much and will miss
her beautiful smile and sense of humor!
❤️❤️❤️
I just lost my grandmother a few months ago unexpectedly and she raised me. She was like my mom, so I completely understand what you’re going through because I literally have said and experience the exact same thing over the last few months.
I just love you so much. You’re the daughter I never had. I’m so very sorry about your mom. It hit me hard. She was a vivacious, smart , compassionate and very funny lady. I will miss her. (((( Hug ))))
Whitney, the service was BEAUTIFUL, just like your Mom❣️ I cried when I heard the news and I cried during the first several episodes. We all love your Mom & family. I believe she is watching over each of you. Thank you for bringing her with you on these adventures!!! Sending love & light!!! ❤️💫❤️
Thank you whitney for sharing your moms funeral with us. Cause I love your family. I lost my momma on September 15th 2022. God bless you and your dad and brother 😢😢
We ❤ Babs. I hope she’s smiling and laughing in heaven 🙏🏻
Definitely losing a parent is one of the hardest things I’ve ever experienced, with losing my father four years ago, it definitely was traumatizing a bit for me & kinda changed how I looked at life. These days I am more emotional & idk just taking it day by day. So I’m sending so much of my love, continued support, & condolences to her & the family. Babs, was such a beautiful light. I’m grateful for even getting to witness both of her parents together & their individual personalities. Love you, Whitney ❤️🙏🏽
Loved Babes ❤😢😢sorry for your loss
I’m sorry so much for your loss.😢I don’t know what I will do without my mom.
Leave Whitney and her Family alone!! Losing your Mother is awful. Babs was loved by so many. Give her some grace. 🤍🕊💔If you have to be hateful, then don't watch!
Or….if you don’t want people judging you for exploiting the death of your mother for money and a storyline, keep it off tv. Nobody forced her to film this.
@@amykuffel1 Fact Check: True. 💯
Everyone deals with grief differently, I also do not remember much of my son's services 😢
So sorry for your loss my deepest condolences!!🙏🏾
Whitney today is Nov 29 and i’m watching your show. I can relate with your trip to the Swiss alps and I’ve skied on those sharp alps. In germany where switzerland, austria and germany meet and ski the alps that can and does go straight down and brother was it steep. My husband and his brother took off and left me on the mountain. So i sat down in the ❄️ to have a cigarette when i heard singing and whistling behind me coming down and so it ended up it was a ski instructor and little kids snow plowing their way down so i got behind them and i followed them to get down off the mountain. Never will ski down those mountains again but it brought memories back to me.
Honestly , I wouldn’t want to rewatch my moms funeral but I wish I lived in that moment . I was so out of it I don’t even remember most of the people that went . During a funeral the last thing on your mind is everything else
My heart goes out to you and your family.
Caretaking is a difficult challenge we share. God bless you Whitney and your family. Rest In Peace, Babs. You will be greatly missed by everyone. 🙏🙏🙏
I tbink what they did by showing her mom funeral was so sweet..Because babs was a huge part of the show and every one loved Babs. I was total shock how good whitney took her mom passing. But sometimes you stay stronger for her dad. Whitney is a loving beautiful soul. They had amazing parents and there parents had true love. R.I.P BABS. LOVE YOU
She was so wonderful and I feel honored that Whitney let us be there
I am very sorry about your mom❤
Re watching this interview just pisses me off for Whitney. I don't understand why she was getting so much hate and criticism from people,from all over the world just because of the clear fact that people post their loved ones funerals all over social media! It's not like it's a new concept or something. People truly grieve in their own manner.
U r realky just kind of numb going through a parents funeral.
You do what you have to.
Oh no....i didn't know she had finally passed...
RIP Babs🥺❤️🙏 you are loved by so many❤ condolences to family ❤sending so much love to Glenn ❤
❤, Praying for the family
I am so sorry for you and your families loss!!! 😢 I have loss my mother too!!! So I kind know how you feel!!! If you are like me!!! I loss my best friend!!! 🌹
Your mom was a awesome lady ..thank you for sharing her with us.. Sleep in Peace beautiful❤
Babs was such an amazing woman, wife, mother, friend, and friends to ppl she didn’t know. Love and miss you Miss Babs. You were one hell of a class act.😢😢❤❤❤
We ALL loved Babs😢
I 100% support Whitney and her family in this. Her mom was lovely and so is Whitney and her entire family. There is nothing wrong with having a public funeral. Many families do this.
Plus her family shows others how to deal with the grief and the loss of a loved one. Nothing wrong with Whitney's family making the decision to show her funeral and celebrate her life publicly.
Babs Was Just Pure Light On This Earth So I Know Her Star Will Be Shining Bright! Rest Babs And Thanks For The Laughs And Inviting Us Into Your Life.🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊
i love your mom and you, and your whole family. just the best.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼REST IN PARADISE MOMMA BAB’S 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼YOU’LL FOREVER BE A SHINNING STAR ⭐️ THANK YOU FOR ALL THE FABULOUS MEMORIES ❤ YOU WILL BE TRULY MISSED 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 TILL WE MEET AGAIN REST IN PARADISE 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
My heart breaks for allll of them!
Me and my wife used to watch the show religiously. Haven't watched it in a good while. Wasn't until today when my mother in law put it on that I found out that Babs passed away. Well needless to say I started crying. You watch these shows week in and week out and you feel like you know these people. When she and her dad went to see her plaque was when I walked in. Instantly I started to cry. Babs reminded me so much of my maw maw Jean. She passed away when I was 18 and still today bothers me. She was a living angel. She didn't curse or talk bad about anyone. The only bad habit she had was smoking which unfortunately was what lead to her death. She was so little and soft spoken and did no wrong. My mom would joke around and say that mawmaw only had sex twice in her life and both she got pregnant, once for my uncle Randy once for her. Lol. That's just how my Mawmaw was. Now of course my pawpaw was the total opposite. Unfortunately, pawpaw had a friend that preyed on that and he was brain washing my Mawmaw with bullshit. So I grabbed him alone one day and told him that if he ever came to my mawmaws house again I would slit his throat. He never returned after that and I could careless whatever happened to him.
I'm so sorry for your loss🙏🌹🖤🕊
RIP BABS
I for one was grateful to be at her funeral virtually. I thought it was touching.
Everyone loved Whitney's mom including Whitney. People need to seriously leave Whitney and her alone.
I actually would like to thank the Thore family for including us in Babs' funeral. She was such a card and her service was lovely. I LOVED when Ashley said Babs wouldn't want us to be sad... well, maybe she would want us to be a little sad. She then smiled, which made me chuckle. She hit the nail on the head because that was so her personality! Too funny. I lost my parents at a very young age, thanks for sharing yours with us. :) I am sincerely sorry for your loss.
Babs was an elegant lady an funny she will be missed. My heart hurts for her family an friends. God bless an watch over them.
Sorry Whit...Gosh your mom was an absolute doll...such a classy funny lady...RIP
Love you Whitney. Be strong
Very sad and RIP however surprised people are criticizing her but showed so much empathy to the Filipino woman who lost her mom during filming of 90 day fiancé.
I am glad she shared!
Grief is different for everyone and you take it as it goes.
Whitney saying she doesn’t get extra money for putting her drama on screen is laughable, the whole show is about her drama and tears! Babs was a sweetheart and I feel her pain. Condolences to the family.
She will be missed condolences to the Thore Family!
People felt like they knew Babs and they would have wanted to be there.
We love Babs!!!! So Sorry to hear this. Revelation 21:3, 4.
Praying 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I loved Barb. May her soul rest in peace 🤍
Omg her mom passed away?!!😢😢she was so sweet.
Ohh please do they realize that ppl have been putting funerals on camera since 2020. There has been so many ppl streaming funerals bc they couldn't attend in person due to covid. Whats the difference from streaming to a group of ppl and your social media platform live. Its not that big of a deal seriously, not now before maybe. My condolences to Whitney and her family, its hard when you lose your mom.
So true! Love u!!!
The cause of death mom died from the tlc network ruined her family life for tv viewers
Thank you Whitney
We definitely loved Babs...❤❤❤ RIH
It makes me mad too Shut up people so nice to remember her. Haters trolling ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm so sorry for Whitney for losing her mother! Ik what she's going through! But I don't think I couldn't have cameras filming the funeral! Props to Whitney for filming that.
I think some things should be kept personal, and off of tv. When my father died, I could not imagine filming his final days and funeral to televise. This reeks of exploitation of Whitney’s mom and entire extended family, who probably wanted to grieve privately instead of having cameras and a reality tv crew show up to film their grief. Gross move on Whitney’s part. She could have told them absolutely not. Nobody forced her at gunpoint to do this.
@@amykuffel1 well I agree with you but according to ET it wasn't her choice. Her dad didn't mind having the cameras there. And Whitney said that her mom was the star of the show.. yes it's personal and to have time to grieve but her dad was the one who said he didn't mind the cameras filming the funeral. But yes I wouldn't want any cameras taking pics or filming everyone like that. Like soap operas they don't film most funerals but some do. But I think some people would've asked why couldn't we see the funeral? Why didn't you film it. Not our decision to make. Sorry
Babs was fabulous and a classy lady on season 4 Rip Babs
This is ao darn hard on whitney and her family. LEAVE HER ALONE!!!!!! She doesn't realize it yet, but the coming months are not going to be easy. 'Anngie'is not going to wipe away the grief. Temporary ban-aid for sure. Just let her be.
Her mom was just apart of Whitney show than anyone else. I glad Whitney showed us my heart is with you and your family 😘💖.
Whitney looks like she lost weight. She looks good
I don't think it's appropriate and I think that the show should be canceled I am not a big fan of the show I did watch it in the beginning but I just think that TLC could put better content on their platform
Of course you do. Watch black television if you have issues.
Whitney today is halloween and i’m watching your show. Your dad loved your mom than life itself. Being somewhat funny but maybe he should go get a nice slow massage and then have a female for a dinner date to discuss the loss of his wife. Death is hard and takes awhile before it gets easier and the loss will be more accepted but the love never goes away nor can you take that love away. I’m glad your dad found his first daughter. If your dad only wants a dinner date let me know. Your dad is so nice
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Very sorry for your loss. A lovely lady. I see a diamond ring on your left hand, Is that what I think it is?
No. That’s her mom’s. She apparently went through and took a lot of her mom’s jewelry. Some even before she died. It’s on her Instagram. Whitney has been gross and greedy throughout her mom’s whole illness.
Why do you think she cleared out her parents house so quickly … she went through everything to make sure she got everything worth of value before the “ other “ daughter came by and became important in her dads life . She’s a greedy person . I think it was awful how she cleared out everything and when her dad came home, there was nothing personal there . No robe to smell his wife’s night cream , no shirt to smell her perfume… those memories are important… that should of been done at his time not Whitney’s!! She is treating him horribly. I can’t stand how she acts anymore.
Whitney treated her father terrible after Babs passed. Going into his house and clearing her Mom's things out without her Dad knowing. The way Whitney bosses him around is horrid! She needs taken down several notches and let her Dad live his life. I know he is so happy to have found Angie and sees what it is like to have a normal daughter who doesn't treat him like Whitney does. It just makes me sick the way Whitney is treating Glenn. Whitney needs to grow up and act her age she acts so stupid I think Angie's family is embarrassed by her and how she acts and runs her big mouth. It's no wonder she can't find a man and she never will the way she bosses and acts.
Good job
We will all lose our mother..keep it personal.
She’s flashing that big ring on her left finger immediately
She stole all of her mother's jewelry. She is a horror
I was wondering about it.
It's was great, in my house we are fan, myself and my daughter cried
I don’t get when these folks yous filter’s all the time because in reality they look ruff
I stopped watching her show when it placed a lot of emphasis on her sort of lying about why she’s so heavy as in blaming it on her illness when that’s not the truth because others with the I’llness came forward and said “hold the bus, Whitney!” and it showed her with what appears to be an additional eating addiction so I tuned out because I want as much aunthenticity as possible and that’s missing. We all have our stories though and I wish her well and prayers for her and all will miss Babs!
Using that poor woman’s death for RATINGS IS DISGUSTING!
That's just who she is authentic and raw. She chose to share her life with the world. I respect and appreciate here vulnerability and realness. Thank you Whitney for being you through and through!
🙏🕊️🙏
Whitney thank you for showing the funeral because we loved Babs to and it let us say good bye to special lady too.
Whitney is such a narcissist
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I could hardly watch her dancing...I dont want to see someone else's parents funeral...I'm sure the mother wasn't for that.
Sad that Babs wasn’t ever a Grandma . 🥲
I used to tell people that it’s gets easier… I don’t do that anymore!!! my mother is been gone 20 years this month, and I still cry, at least several times a week missing her and wishing she was here to talk to!!!🥲🥲🥲❤️❤️❤️
I miss mine so much. 20 years for my mom
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 😢😂
