Over the years, the big cast of TLC’s 1000 Lb Sisters has been a part of multiple controversies. The first three seasons of the reality series were pretty dramatic, given how Amy and Tammy Slaton’s storyline was constantly changing. However, the fourth installment of the weight-loss-centric show had a surprising turnabout. Tammy, who almost became the series villain, has changed her life for good.
Meanwhile, Amy Slaton’s world seems to be crumbling down due to her failed marriage. It had only been months since she gave birth for the second time when reports of her separation from her husband, Michael Halterman, came around. He is currently facing the wrath of thousands of TLC viewers. Amid this, Amy’s ex’s criminal history has surfaced, which is quite controversial indeed. Keep reading for more details.
1000 Lb Sisters: Amy’s Ex-Husband Was Arrested For Domestic Violence! Shocking Criminal History Revealed
The Slaton sisters have been famous for years now. Well, they ran a successful YouTube channel long before their debut on 1000 Lb Sisters. However, fans only got to know Michael Halterman due to his relationship with Amy Slaton. At that time, not much was known about him. But soon, some concerning details began to emerge. Apparently, Michael has a shocking criminal history. He had a run-in with the law back in 2015 when he was arrested in Henderson, Kentucky.
The most unnerving part of it all was the reason behind his arrest. As per a report by Soapdirt, the officials booked Michael Halterman for assault and a 4th-degree minor injury. His mugshot from the time was also released. While other official details about the domestic violence case were not revealed, Redditors decided to do their own research and shed light on the matter. According to these Reddit posts, Michael had struck his previous partner (before Amy) in the face. In fact, there were also accusations against him of ‘putting his hands’ on his grandmother.

As details of Michael Halterman’s criminal history have resurfaced, fans have become concerned about Amy’s well-being. Just months ago, the couple seemed to be in a loving relationship. So, people were confused when news of their separation came along. But as 1000 Lb Sisters Season 4 began airing, Michael’s laziness and ignorance towards fatherly duties came to light. Fans now believe that it was right for Amy to call it quits with him. Her family is also supporting her in this tough time.
Reports say that the reason for their divorce was Michael not helping Amy out with parenting their two kids.

Although the news of their split is already out in public, neither of the 1000 Lb Sisters stars has commented on the same. But the coming episodes of Season 4 might shed some light on the topic. We will update this section accordingly. So, stay tuned to TV Season & Spoilers.
