1000-Lb. Sisters' Amy Slaton Shares Insight Into New Romance

As for Michael, he, too, seems to be focusing on their children in the wake of their split, writing in a rare Instagram post in April, "Happy Easter with my two beautiful boys."

Amy met Michael when she was 8 years old, and they dated throughout her childhood. After a break as young adults, they came together to start a family. "He loves me and supports me," she told The Sun last year. "He don't care how much I weigh, how much I lose. He don't care."

1000-Lb Sisters premieres Tuesday, Dec. 12, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on TLC.
