Tammy Slaton, known for her journey towards weight loss and a healthier lifestyle, recently reprised a scene from 1000-Lb Sisters that originally featured her sister, Amy Slaton Halterman. This decision has left TLC fans frustrated, as Amy had played a significant role in motivating Tammy to make positive changes in her life.
A new friend, Haley Michelle, has entered the picture, and fans are not pleased with her habit of using show-related hashtags when mentioning Amy’s sister. Just a few days ago, Haley shared a photo on Instagram featuring herself with the 1000-Lb Sisters star. In the caption, it was revealed that the two women, along with another friend, were on a road trip and had gone shopping together. While fans expressed happiness about the road trip, some believe that Haley is leveraging the TV star for personal gain.
Two days after embarking on their trip, Haley used the hashtag #1000LbSisters once again in an Instagram post. She then shared the reprised scene from the show. This has caused confusion among some TLC fans, as Tammy recently claimed to have a new girlfriend named Andrea. The status of Tammy’s relationship with Andrea remains unknown, but Haley and her new bestie appear to spend a significant amount of time together. As a result, people are questioning who Haley is and when she became a part of Tammy’s life.
The new version of the footage was filmed by Tammy and Haley beside a picturesque lake, whereas the original scene was nothing out of the ordinary. However, most of the dialogue remained the same, with Haley assuming the role of Amy. When Tammy famously snapped at Amy, saying, “Try being my size, Amy,” it went viral. Today, you can find merchandise such as notebooks, tote bags, and clothing featuring this quote. Additionally, a TikToker saved and shared the clip, allowing people to revisit the iconic moment.
In the Instagram reel posted by Haley, Tammy Slaton repeated her famous line:
“Try being my size, Amy. You don’t know how it is.”
Haley responded, “There is stuff you can do; you just want to be a big baby about everything.” Tammy then retorted, “A baby? You’re the big baby.”
The new version of the scene did not sit well with many viewers. Here are some of the reasons behind their discontent:
“Why is this woman sticking to Tammy like she’s her skin?! Why is she voicing over Amy?! She’s not her sister! She’s trying to make herself look better next to Tammy and clout chasing! Poor Tammy!”
“Tammy, NOTHING is stronger than blood. You pulled some ‘big *ss BS,’ and your sister still kept trying to help you. You will regret disrespecting Amy. Sad.”
“If they are such BFFs, where was she when Tammy was struggling and fighting for her life?”
“I just don’t think this ‘friend’ would’ve had Tammy’s back at her lowest/heaviest! Just my intuition!”
As fans continue to voice their frustrations, it remains to be seen how Tammy’s relationship with Haley will further unfold on 1000-Lb Sisters.
