Whitney Way Thore and Chase Severino's relationship had everyone convinced that true love does exist. The pair had been planning to get married soon after he proposed to her in Paris. However, Whitney's dreams were shattered once she found out Chase had cheated on her and was going to become a father of a child with another woman.

In a preview for the upcoming season, Whitney recalled she was staying with her mother during quarantine when Chase broke the news to her. Whitney revealed Chase wanted to come and meet her while they were in quarantine alone. However, fearing the threat of coronavirus, Whitney decided it would be best if Chase continued to stay where he was. Despite this, Chase insisted he comes and meets Whitney as he wanted to deliver the news in person. Hearing this, Whitney had an idea that it was going to be something bad, and she decided to hear the news on phone. Chase broke the news about him becoming a father and that broke Whitney.

The reality star revealed she ended up having a panic attack and called for an ambulance to be taken to the hospital. While she tried calling her brother, Whitney was not able to get in touch with him. To make sure she had someone by her side, Whitney called her best friend Buddy Bell and he ended up being the one who was by her side. Following the panic attack, Whitney revealed, Buddy ended up quarantining with her at her house. The pair has been spending the quarantine together and Whitney believes it is for the good as she does not like the feeling of being alone. At the same time, the reality star revealed she ended up going to the hospital for the second time and was glad he was next to her.
