1000-lb Sisters stars Amy Slaton and Michael Halterman are getting divorced after nearly five years of marriage, and fans of the series are sharing their opinions about it on social media. While Amy and Michael have chosen to share their lives on reality TV, the news of their divorce is still very new. With the show still a bit behind in its own timeline, fans were shocked by the news after recently seeing episodes of the series where Amy and Michael were clearly still together. Even when they were still married, viewers had their reservations about Michael and the couple’s marriage, especially in the most recent season.

　　With 1000-lb Sisters season 4 ending abruptly after Tammy Slaton married Caleb Willingham in their Ohio-based weight loss rehab, fans were shocked to hear the news of the impending breakup between Amy and Michael before it was shown on screen. As 1000-lb Sisters season 4 unfolde d, there was some harsh criticism about Michael online from fans who were unhappy with his behavior towards Amy and their sons, Gage and Glenn. With the couple publicly announcing their divorce, viewers have taken to Amy’s social media to offer their input and show support for the TLC docuseries star.

　　Amy shared a few new photos to Instagram that show off her slimmer-than-ever figure, and tons of fans in her comments are sharing their thoughts about the divorce. One Instagram user said, "Amy-you are looking good, I think the split is doing you & your body well! I feel for you," while another said, "You look amazing! …You never needed him anyway! This is proof! Look at you glowing!" Meanwhile, a fellow fan offered another perspective, commenting, "Michael did a lot for Amy and Tammy. I often wonder if Michael felt unappreciated or taken for granted," while a different fan shared, "Hopefully you and Micheal can work things out."

　　With Amy’s fans somewhat split throughout her comments, there hasn’t been much of a consensus on the divorce just yet. While fans aren’t happy with Michael’s actions, especially throughout 1000-lb Sisters season 4 when he left the kids to Amy while he does other things, many are still wary of the idea of the two getting divorced. Some fans drew the line at Michael pushing Amy to care for their children on her own whil e dealing with several other factors, including her own health issues, while others felt that the couple could still try to make their relationship work.

　　While it’s clear that Amy and Michael have had issues in the past, what exactly sparked their divorce remains to be seen. It’s likely that if 1000-lb Sisters is renewed for season 5, the show will give viewers a more in-depth look at what happened in the couple’s relationship. Overall, if Amy and Michael do decide to stay apart, the fans will certainly have a lot to say about it.
