Amy Slaton has a new boyfriend, but here are 7 reasons why her relationship with Bryan Scott Lovvorn is doomed. When the unscripted series premiered in 2020, Amy was married to Michael Halterman. The newlyweds wanted to start a family, but Amy's weight was in her way. When Amy stepped on an industrial-sized scale during the premiere episode of the unscripted series, she weighed 408 pounds. Since then, Amy has lost weight, had two sons, and divorced Michael. After finding herself single again, Amy kissed a few frogs before finding Bryan.

Amy has had multiple failed relationships since her divorce, and her relationship with Bryan could end badly too. Before the premiere of 1000-lb Sisters season 7, Amy announced that she'd met a new man on social media. Amy and Bryan have been inseparable since they met at a concert. They spent a lot of time with Amy's children, and Bryan asked them all to move in with him. He also asked Amy to have his baby, so the couple moved very quickly. Though Amy seems happy now, there are already signs the relationship won't last.

7 The Age Gap

Bryan Is Much Older Than Amy

At 50 years of age, Bryan is considerably older than the 37-year-old Amy. Though 13 years is a big age gap, it's not necessarily insurmountable. Amy has grown up a lot over the last few years, so she's certainly more mature than she used to be. She's come a long way since her divorce, but she's had several setbacks lately. Amy may not be emotionally ready for a much older man right now.

This wouldn't be the only massive age gap on 1000-lb Sisters. Amy's brother, 44-year-old Chris Combs, is married to 36-year-old Brittany Combs, and their relationship appears to be perfectly loving and happy. With good communication, Amy and Bryan could manage their age difference well enough to be happy together, but it'll take work.

6 Moving In Together Changes Things

Amy Recently Agreed To Move Into Bryan's House

During 1000-lb Sisters season 7, Bryan asked Amy to move in with him, along with her two boys. He argued that he has a bigger house and a pool, with plenty of property for Amy's boys to play and grow. Amy agreed to move in after getting Bryan to promise to baby-proof the house well enough to keep her sons safe. Though Amy is happy with Bryan, she's moving too fast. She should take her time to get to know Bryan before she uproots her sons to move in with him.

5 Amy Wasn't Even Interested

She Didn't Spark With Bryan

When Amy and Bryan met, she wasn't even interested in him. The 1000-lb Sisters season 7 star didn't think he was her type, so the attraction just wasn't there for her. Bryan persisted and Amy was persuaded to give him a shot. It's possible that Amy just likes the fact that Bryan is so deeply in love with her. She may not like him nearly as much. When the excitement of a new relationship wears off, Amy may realize that she's better off on her own.

4 Amy & Brian Are Moving Too Fast

It's Taking Focus Away From The Rest Of Her Life

After Amy's bariatric surgery led to her 125-pound weight loss, Amy was finally healthy enough to have two sons, Gage and Glenn Halterman. Since her divorce from their father, the 1000-lb Sisters star has been committed to being a good mom. She's also been working on herself and growing so much. It's great that she's always trying to be active with them to model healthy behavior, but she may have introduced them to Bryan too soon.

If the Slatons never come around to accepting Bryan, the relationship is doomed to end in tears.

The new couple have been celebrating milestones together, with and without her sons. Amy and Bryan recently celebrated Bryan's belated birthday together, and the 1000-lb Sisters season 7 star posted TikTok photos from their romantic dinner at The Olive Garden. Before that, Amy posted a TikTok of Bryan celebrating New Year's Eve with Amy and her sons. She should consider pumping the brakes until she knows him better.

3 Amy's Family Doesn't Approve

The Slatons Are Hard To Please

During a recent episode of 1000-lb Sisters season 7, Brian surprised Amy with a proposal at a pop-up haunted house. With her sisters, Tammy Slaton and Misty Wentworth, looking on disapprovingly, Brian got down on one knee and slipped a ring on Amy's finger. Her siblings were not happy about Amy's engagement, which brought Amy to tears. Amy's brother, Chris, also expressed his displeasure at the pace of the relationship, as did her other sister, Amanda Halterman. If the Slatons never come around to accepting Bryan, the relationship is doomed to end in heartache.

2 Amy's Life Is A Mess

Camel Bites & Court Dates

The truth is, Amy's not exactly in the best place to start a new relationship. During an episode of 1000-lb Sisters season 7, Amy and Bryan took her sons to a safari park across the border in Tennessee. While feeding some camels through the car window, Amy made the mistake of turning her back on the animal. Mistaking her arm for the food trough, the camel took a big bite out of her arm. When the police were called to the scene, they found some marijuana in Bryan's car.

If the judge throws the book at her, Amy could face up to 30 years in jail.

While Amy claims to have a medical marijuana prescription in Kentucky, they were in Tennessee, where her card doesn't protect her. Both Amy and Bryan were arrested. Later, during the same 1000-lb Sister season 7 episode, Amy had to go shopping for appropriate clothes to wear on her court date. If the judge throws the book at her, Amy could face up to 30 years in jail. With everything going on in her life, Amy may not have the bandwidth to focus on her relationship with Bryan.

1 Brian Wants A Baby

He Asked Amy To Have Her Tubes Untied

When it comes to romance, Amy has not always had her head on straight. After her 2023 divorce from Michael, Amy found herself in more than one failed relationship. Things do seem more serious with Bryan, and they're even already talking about expanding their family. During the first episode of 1000-lb Sisters season 7, Amy told her sister, 44-year-old Amanda Halterman, that Bryan wanted her to reverse her tubes being tied so she could have his baby.

"I really think he can be the one, one day."

Amanda tried to urge her sister not to rush things. She warned her that it could take at least several months until someone's true nature reveals itself, but Amy wasn't listening. "I really think he can be the one, one day," Amy insists. Amanda quickly realized that there was nothing she could say to deter Amy. Her brother, 44-year-old Chris Combs, reacted just as badly to the news and begged Amy not to move in with Bryan either. Her siblings know how impetuous Amy can be. If Bryan keeps pressuring Amy to have a baby, it may drive the 1000-lb Sisters star away.

1000-lb Sisters season 7 airs on Tuesday nights at 9 p.m. ET/PT on TLC.
