Something might be brewing between '1000-lb Best Friends' stars Meghan Crumpler and Scott Bagwill. In Season 3 Episode 4 of the TLC show, their interactions during the pole dancing lesson seemed to take a flirtatious turn, with Meghan stealing glances at Scott. While he barely participated and looked visibly uncomfortable with the dance, Meghan seemed to enjoy herself, frequently looking back at him and offering sneaky smiles.

This exchange has led to romance rumors, even though some fans find the idea cringe-worthy, especially since Meghan is married. However, it’s not entirely surprising given the similarities between the two. Both Meghan and Scott have struggled with their weight loss journeys, often falling short of their goals due to a lack of motivation and frequent tantrums when things don’t go as planned. Scott was recently seen leaving Dr Charles Procter’s clinic in tears, a situation Meghan has also experienced.

Scott Bagwill's struggles with relationships

It is often argued that Scott Bagwill’s motivation to lose weight stems from his desire to find love.
