Hope explained that she’s a “cool person,” which is why she chose the name. She wanted her name to be on everyone’s minds. Sander explained in his confessional that his friend is “a good vibe,” which is one of the reasons why he has a crush on her. Though they never met in real life, he wants to see where their friendship takes in.

“Hope and I have never met, and it just doesn’t do you service just to do calls online and continue doing social media events,” Sander explained. “I just want to hang out with Hope in person. But I’ve asked girls on dates and I’ve gotten turned down before, so I’m a little bit nervous.”

Sander finally gets the courage to ask Hope out. He casually suggests that they should “hang out” and “do something fun together.” Hope said yes! But the viewers will have to find out if their date goes well.

Sander held a weight-loss intervention

This moment come after Sander and his two siblings, Ari and Griffen had a weight-loss intervention. They cornered Jazz Jennings to confront her about her weight gain. The TLC star revealed that she gained 234 pounds since she graduated high school.

“Jazz really needs to start pushing towards this healthier life, so hopefully with the help of this vision square, she’s going to start really reaching her visions and goals by being consistent with these things,” Griffen explained. “It’s one thing to be aware of what’s going wrong, like not healthy eating, not working out, but it’s another thing to actually take action and take daily and consistent action.”

The siblings felt confident about helping their sister achieve a “healthier” lifestyle. But Jazz felt like they were attacking her rather than helping her. She’s been open about her struggles with binge-eating in the past. In the previous episode, Jazz said she was blindsided by their intervention. Jazz’s family members, including her siblings, have been criticized by fans for body-shaming their sister.

I Am Jazz airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET on TLC.
