1000-Lb. Sisters star Amy Slaton and Michael Halterman‘s story began long before their reality TV days.
The twosome met while in high school in the 2000s but didn’t tie the knot until March 2019 in Nashville. Throughout the TLC series, which premiered in January 2020, Amy spoke about how her partner was her rock throughout her health journey alongside her sister, Tammy Slaton.
“I can tell him anything and everything,” she said during the series premiere. “And Michael’s really supportive of me helping Tammy.”
Amy began her wellness journey so she could achieve her goal of becoming a mother. Her doctor crafted a diet and exercise plan for her so she could become eligible for gastric bypass surgery. After adhering to the regimen, Amy underwent the procedure in 2020, losing enough weight to get pregnant.
In November 2020, the couple welcomed their first child, son Gage. Less than two years later, Amy announced she was expecting again. Amy gave birth to their second son, Glenn, in July 2022.
Us Weekly confirmed in March 2023 that Halterman filed for divorce after four years of marriage.
