'My Big Fat Fabulous Life' Season 11 will show how Glenn lost the will to live after wife Babs' death. Whitney says in the trailer, "I wanted him to have some joy in his life and we had to find things to give him a reason to live."

Whitney further claimed, "He literally said to me that he did not want to live without my mother. Some scary things that you don't really want to hear from someone you love."
