Ryan Andreas's hate for Buddy Bell was quite apparent on Tuesday's episode of 'My Big Fat Fabulous Life'. He was heard talking smack about Whitney Way Thore's best friend more than once, first with Chase Severino. Ryan assured Chase that Whitney's dealing well with the breakup and that Buddy has been there since Day 1 trying to get her back to sanity. However, during the confessional, he narrated a completely different story. He said Buddy is back at Whitney's house but he never left and that he's been sitting around collecting free rent but that was not the last of the hate that he spewed.

Last week Ryan was at Whitney's house collecting his share of the payment. Whitney was avoiding a meeting with him because he was Chase's best friend and she suspected him of knowing that Chase was cheating on her and he still said nothing. However, they were also business partners and he needed to be paid, so she decided to have him come over to the house but asked him to stay out of her door because he wasn't wearing a mask. They spoke about the business and when they'd like to resume and the conversation then drifted to Chase, but Ryan said he only knew about Chase expecting a child a day before Whitney knew. He also said he was unaware that he was sleeping with someone else. 

Ryan and Whitney reconnected on this week's episode. After snubbing previously, she decided to meet him at the dog park to discuss their business since the quarantine rules and restrictions were relaxed to a certain extent. However, she also brought Buddy along just as a "buffer" because she was sure that things could get awkward. Ryan wasn't very impressed to see him there and once again lashed out but in a confessional: "Yea big shocker, Buddy is here. Everyone brings their dogs."

Fans were obviously not impressed with Ryan badmouthing Buddy like that. "Ryan is disgusting. He called a Buddy a dog cause he there to support Whitney. Ryan you are a horrible friend so of course you wouldn’t know what loyalty and support is. #MyBigFatFabLife" tweeted a fan. "I despise Ryan. Yeah Ryan but everyone loves dogs a**hole #mybigfatfablife," wrote another. "Why is Ryan pressed on Whitney’s relations with Buddy? I got tool from the jump! #MyBigFatFabLife" read another tweet. "RYAN. WHY THE F**K YOU QUESTIONING BUDDY’s MOTIVES? GET THE F**K OUTTA HERE, WE SEE YOU! #MyBigFatFabLife" wrote another.
