Amanda Halterman's new relationship is heating up as she and her new boyfriend are getting closer every day. After a lifetime of being unlucky in love, the 44-year-old could have found her person, and she's not wasting a moment making new memories. Though the beloved unscripted series is about Tammy and Amy Slaton, their siblings are a big part of the story, including Amanda. Her star has been on the rise as of late, and her entertaining love life is a big part of the reason why.

In addition to Amanda's love life, her health and fitness goals have also been a major part of her story. The 1000-lb Sisters season 6 star had her second gastric by surgery in March 2023 and immediately lost a significant amount of weight. After a knee injury required surgery, Amanda was sidelined and plateaued. A recent health scare made matters worse. Her health may not be in the best place lately, but Amanda's love life is soaring with her new boyfriend. She has never seemed happier. Could her new boyfriend be the one?
