Curvy Wife Guy, forever sticking to his brand, has reemerged on TikTok
Screen grab of Robbie Tripp’s most popular TikTok Photo: robbietripp/TikTok I regret to inform you that Curvy Wife Guy is back. I also regret to inform you that he never actually went away. After his viral 2017 Instagram post about how much he loves his curvy wife — which was both celebrated as body positive and dragged as white-knighting masked as feminism — the Curvy Wife Guy, a.k.a. Robbie Tripp, fully leaned into his “I bravely love my wife who is not a size 2” persona.
He currently has just under 20,000 followers on TikTok and a collective 431,000 likes on his videos, a far cry from the millions of followers and billions of likes of the most famous TikTokers. Still, there is certainly an audience for his content, in which he bravely loves his wife and other plus-size women. His most popular TikTok videos feature his song “Chubby Sexy” and show Tripp dancing near and pointing at women whom he has deemed as such.
Unlike the mixed reaction to his now-infamous Instagram post, the response to his TikToks have been surprisingly positive, at least within the confines of his comment section. “‘Chubby Sexy’ has gotten so much love on TikTok,” Tripp told MEL in a recent interview. “I just love how there’s a whole body-positive category of TikTok that’s encouraging to all sizes.
Still, his most popular TikToks feel like his viral Instagram post put to music. There’s often an unmistakable air of self-congratulation or uncomfortable objectification. His TikTok best exemplifying this is also his most viewed — one in which a bikini-clad woman is dancing to “Chubby Sexy” while he is just … there. Similarly, they’re being celebrated for doing the bare minimum in terms of body positivity and, ultimately, profiting off of pseudo-feminist ideas.
To Tripp’s credit, he has certainly stuck by his brand. Also, his wife doesn’t seem to mind. So, congrats to this man and his questionable content, I guess.
