“FROM FEEDING A CAMEL TO JAIL,” the statement began.

According to E! News, Michael filed for divorce from Halterman in March 2023. After that, she started dating a man named Kevin, but their relationship was short-lived. It is unclear if Lovvorn is Halterman’s new mistress.

Halterman told E! News in December that despite the ups and downs in her love life, she can always rely on her family, especially her “1000-lb Sisters” co-star and sister Tammy Slaton.
