The 1000-Lb Sisters Family Has A Tight-Knit Bond
While it's unclear if 1000-Lb Sisters is coming back for another season, there's been a lot of speculation about whether Amanda has been trying to steal the spotlight from Tammy and Amy, which could lead to a changing onscreen dynamic if the show does return. However, regardless of the speculation and rumors, as well as any arguments that the cameras have captured, the family is still a tight-knit unit and they have each other's best interests at heart. Their social media updates prove that they care deeply about each other and will do anything to make sure everyone's lifted up.
For example, earlier in the month, Amanda shared a throwback photo from 2017 when Tammy was hospitalized with pulmonary embolism. The 1000-Lb Sisters star thanked God for ensuring her sister got better and that she got to be on the journey with Tammy. She ended her Instagram caption by saying she's very proud of Tammy. She included the word "family" in one of her hashtags, further proving the bond she has with her siblings. If one of them is feeling down, the others will be there to lift them up.
Amanda also shared a video recently that showcased Chris Combs and the bond he shared with his son and grandchild. She called it a blessing to be able to witness everyone growing up before their very eyes. These are just a couple of examples, but there are many more that prove their critics wrong and disprove all the rumors.
Our Take On Amanda Opening Up About Her Health Issues
It's Unlikely 1000-Lb Sisters Season 7 Will Happen Soon
Despite her own respiratory difficulties, Amanda has requested that fans keep her family in their prayers. Although she may not be particularly close to Tammy, she is still a valued and affectionate elder sister within the family. There have been whispers about Amanda potentially taking the lead role in the future of 1000-LB Sisters. If Tammy were to leave Kentucky, it would be logical for Amanda to step in and carry on with the show. Unfortunately, Amanda's recent health challenges could potentially postpone the filming of 1000-LB Sisters season 7.
