1000 Lb Sisters star Amanda Halterman has gained plenty of attention from viewers who watched Season 6. Throughout the season, Tammy and Amy shared the spotlight with her. Hence, they might not be thrilled about it. TLC started the show with the sisters to document individual weight loss journeys.
While the show’s first seasons only had the famous sisters and other siblings, Amanda joined them in the last couple of seasons. She might not have come earlier because of her divorce from her ex-husband, Jason Halterman. After becoming a part of a few seasons, the 44-year-old sister’s story turned into the main subject. This made stories of Tammy and Amy edge out, as they got habituated with fame. Are they struggling with Amanda’s growing popularity? Will their ego clash with her?
1000 Lb Sisters: Why Amanda Has Become The Pillar Of The Show In Season 6?
Reality TV star Amanda Halterman is new in the limelight due to her dramatic storyline in Season 6. After being on the show, she has kept herself active on social media platforms to enjoy the stardom. Over the years, her life has changed a lot. During Season 4, TLC made her feel at home when she first came.
With time, Amanda went from someone appearing occasionally to one of the main characters. She received a lot of screen time against Tammy and Amy, who were supposed to be the stars of the unscripted series. During Season 5, she and Misty underwent bariatric surgery from the same doctor after pursuing their physical journeys. Interestingly, Amanda’s love life was the most entertaining part, and it helped her achieve prominence.
1000 Lb Sisters: Amanda Has Become A Social Media Influencer Amidst Tammy & Amy’s Jealousy Towards Sharing The Spotlight!
TLC personality Amanda Halterman played a more significant role in Season 6 than in the other seasons, so her popularity has also risen unimaginably. Currently, she enjoys 107K followers on Instagram and 424K on TikTok. She has become an influencer with her active social media presence and growing followers.
Compared to Amanda’s fame, Tammy has 841K Instagram followers and 294K TikTok followers, while Amy has 667K on Instagram and 591K on TikTok. Both Chris and Misty’s social media accounts couldn’t reach these numbers since they have much fewer followers. Hence, it’s proved Amanda has taken her game to the next level over the years.
Amy and Tammy are the big two stars, whose combined weight became the name of the show. But now, they have been gradually sidelined to give Amanda recognition. Tammy and Amy had reached many milestones, just like Amanda. For such television celebrities, enjoying the spotlight with one of their family members could have disappointed them.
Moreover, Amanda is a short-tempered woman with an out-of-control ego. She has been involved in fights with Slatons. Once, she fought due to the pain from her knee surgery, making Amy and Tammy continuously blame her. Even though the sisters don’t like to see her in the same spotlight as them, they probably have no other choice. Keep coming back to TV Season & Spoilers, for all latest reality TV updates.
