1000 Lb Sisters: Fans Slams Amy Following Her Christmas Post!
Reality TV star Amy Slaton faced criticism for her latest post on Instagram. She shared photos of her kids from a Christmas-themed park. Taking a closer look at the pictures, fans noticed Amy’s boyfriend, Brian Lovvorn. Brian, dressed up as Santa, was holding one of Amy’s young boys in the photo.
This shocked fans as they thought the two had separated after their arrest for carrying illegal possession. Apart from pointing fingers at Amy’s love interest, some fans also called her out for letting her boys go barefoot. This wasn’t the first time she had made her children walk barefoot. Previously, in one of the show’s episodes, she let her kids walk without shoes at a shoe shop.
1000 Lb Sisters: Could PTSD Be Driving Amy To Avoid Competition?
During the latest season, Amy Slaton didn’t approve of the idea of a weight loss competition after her siblings proposed it. The siblings wanted to have a competition to encourage each other. Witnessing Amy’s hesitation toward competition, some viewers believe her intense fear is due to her past trauma. One of her fans took to Reddit to share their reaction to Amy’s emotions.
The fan wrote, “I understand Amy when she says she doesn’t want a competition…” Many fans felt that Amy had been through a lot in her childhood. While they believe she receives hate for her wrong attitude, they couldn’t disagree with her childhood trauma. As a result, fans acknowledged why Amy must be holding plenty of PTSD regarding competition.
The original poster of the Reddit thread explained how the family had similar issues in the past when there were competitions. The siblings always turned friendly games into personal ones. Although the poster didn’t defend Amy’s behavior, they wanted her to seek therapy for absolute wonders. Other Redditors sympathized with Amy, saying they have complex feelings for her.
From the beginning of 1000 Lb Sisters, both Amy and Tammy confessed that their childhood wasn’t a great one. They often turned to food for comfort to get over their hardships. This especially happened to them because of their mother, Darlene, who is an emotionally unavailable person. Keep coming back to TV Season & Spoilers, for the latest 1000 Lb Sisters tea.
