'My Big Fat Fabulous Life's Whitney Way Thore Shares She Was 'Almost Suicidal' After Online Hate (Exclusive)

Whitney Way Thore is opening up about the dark place she went to after being the target of online bullying and harassment.

Sitting down with ET's Deidre Behar ahead of season 12's premiere on TLC, the reality TV star, 40, opened up about the mental health challenges she faced from social media harassment. "I have the security system and all that, but there have been times, I had years ago the police show up on my doorstep at 3 in the morning and tell me that there had been a death threat and that someone had threatened to kill me with a knife that night and they were just performing a wellness check." "OK, so nobody freak out," Whitney tells her brother, Hunter, and the rest of the Thore family in one clip before a snippet plays of her kissing a mystery man.
