ATLANTA, GEORGIA: '1000-lb Best Friends' Season 3 star Vannessa Cross often kept her personal life private, staying tight-lipped about her dating life. She only shares her transformation journey on her social media, avoiding posts about her dating life. The TLC star appears to be ready to finally bring her relationship drama to the cameras.

In a sneak peek of the upcoming episode, Vannessa steps out of her comfort zone to dive into the speed dating experiment. The teaser offers a glimpse into her exciting and romantic date with a mystery man. The viewers witnessed the duo's undeniable chemistry on camera as Vannessa sparked a connection with the mystery man. The reality star was notably highly impressed and left 'flustered' with her date as he complimented her stunning look. Vannessa's latest date came after she had a major weight loss but she made it clear that her transformation has nothing to do with her dating debut. Vannessa has undergone a dramatic weight loss journey, shedding 250 lbs, but her transformation has also sparked multiple dramas in her life, leading to rifts with some of her friends, who have since shunned her from their group. However, the speed dating experience offered a fun distraction for Vannessa.
