The highly anticipated return of 1000-Lb Sisters has brought along more drama for its protagonist, Tammy Slaton. This season, Tammy’s housing situation has become a topic of discussion. In December 2023, the fifth season of 1000-Lb Sisters premiered, marking a difficult year for both Tammy and her sister, Amy Slaton. Amy went through a final separation from her ex-husband, Michael Halterman, while also experiencing the unexpected death of Caleb Willingham. Tammy, dealing with grief, returned to her home in Kentucky. However, her return was far from smooth as she found herself facing legal trouble just five days after Caleb’s funeral, being arrested for drug possession.
With so much happening in the personal lives of Tammy and Amy, viewers had been eagerly anticipating the arrival of 1000-Lb Sisters season 5. In the previous season, viewers witnessed Tammy’s remarkable weight loss of over 300 pounds, as well as her marriage to Caleb. Meanwhile, Amy navigated life as a mother of two children and struggled to salvage her failing marriage. Unfortunately, the period between seasons brought about significant challenges for both sisters. Unfortunately, Tammy encountered yet another setback in her life, this time related to her housing situation.
It has come to light that Amanda Halterman, likely Amy’s sister-in-law, played a role in forcing Tammy out of her previous residence.
In a recent report by the US Sun, it was revealed that Amanda Halterman, Tammy’s sister, was the owner of the rental property where Tammy was residing. Unfortunately, their relationship took a sour turn, leading to Amanda evicting Tammy. According to a friend of Tammy’s, the article stated, “She was renting it from her sister, Amanda… and they just do not get along at all. They fight worse than cats and dogs.” Although the exact cause of their disagreement remains unknown, it is evident that their on and offscreen arguments have been intense over the years. As a result, Tammy has now moved in with her brother Chris Combs.
Following her eviction from her sister’s place, Tammy found refuge with her brother, Chris Combs. Tammy, who rose to fame on the show 1000-Lb Sisters, relocated just around 38 miles away from her former residence in Sturgis, Kentucky. The new house is modest, and sources suggest that Tammy settled in with Chris around November 2023. The timing of her arrival must have added an extra layer of chaos to the household, as Chris and his wife, Brittany, celebrated the arrival of their baby in August 2023. Chris has become a beloved figure among fans, with his impressive weight loss journey inspiring many.
Amy and Tammy have experienced tumultuous lives ever since they finished filming the first part of the reality show 1000-Lb Sisters. As fans eagerly await the release of the second half, there are many challenges and setbacks that need to be addressed on camera. Tragically, Tammy has recently lost her husband, adding to the already difficult circumstances. In addition, Amy and her husband have decided to separate, further adding to the emotional strain they both face. Furthermore, Tammy’s struggle with drug possession has been a serious issue that cannot be ignored. These events have resulted in Tammy needing to find a new place to live, as she had another intense altercation with Amanda, her previous roommate. Despite the ups and downs, the Sisters have provided the show’s producers with ample material to captivate their audience.
