When Ryan Andreas made his television debut, he made a big impression in the process. The “My Big Fat Fabulous Life,” fitness trainer has fans, but he also made some people feel significantly uncomfortable during his time on the show. While he seems like an overall nice guy, he solidified his reputation with many fans when he found out that his friend, Chase, was cheating on Ryan’s own business partner, Whitney. When he had the chance to speak up and let her know that the man she loved was not the man she thought he was, he chose to stay out of it. It’s a situation that’s deeply personal, and it’s unfair to judge unless you’ve been in the situation…some people, after all, don’t want anything to do with being involved in the dramatic personal lives of others (and there is not a thing wrong with that). Regardless of how you feel about his choice to stay mum on the situation, there are so many things about Ryan Andreas you don’t know, and we are here to share.
