I don't think Whitley is like Weiss is now or like she was before. Just like Winter was not like Weiss is now and probably not the way she was before. They have all responded differently to Jacques and that is more defining. Winter arguably pursued a path much closer to her family life by joining the military, but still separated. Weiss went all the way to another country for the purpose of performing good deeds outside any individual or group's strict control. Whitley has immersed himself in the family. I doubt that is a phase either.

As I said before, Weiss seems to be the only one in the family who retained some element of normalcy. Willow is obviously a drunkard, Winter is cold and hardened, Whitley seems to be twisted, but Weiss seems to have a pretty normal attitude. She is irritable, but otherwise kind and compassionate and it is genuine. Whitley has seemed to develop that aptitude Jacques has for faux compassion. They aren't heartless, exactly, but both of them are very keen to show false kindness. Only difference is Whitley shows cracks that probably mean he would be more unstable in the long run.
