As previously reported in Very Excited Details, Tammy Slaton has lost a lot of weight over the past several months.
However, according to a new report, both Slayton and her family members, who want to star on TLC’s 1000-Pound Sisters, Get Some in the coming months:
Wealth.
Tammy and Amy Slaton would like to make a lot of money.
An insider shared some behind-the-scenes information with The Sun a few days ago, alleging that Tammy earns around two or three thousand dollars per episode. (She also used her recent earnings from the series to pay for 14 months of rehab.)
Tammy’s half-sister Amanda – who joined the cast during season three – only makes $700 a month for her appearances on the program.
Amy makes the most of this trio because her very young sons, Gage and Glenn, have their own contracts with TLC; However these funds go to a trust for the children.
Finding accurate salary information for reality stars can be challenging, but a quick Google search reveals that other TLC personalities — such as members of the Roloff family — earn closer to $20,000 or more per episode.
The Sun writes that the Slaytons feel “they can make more money if they leave their current production network contract.”
The outlet says that Tammy, Amy and company are not happy “that every time a cast member attempts to have a serious conversation on the show, producers edit it out.”
Could this mean that the family members look for some sort of spinoff on a different network down the line? Or try to stand firm in future contract negotiations?
It’s possible, but The Sun also notes that each cast member has signed a deal to star in the back half of season 4, which will begin shooting soon, so don’t be going anywhere anytime soon. Will happen.
Finally, The Sun claims that producers are trying to quell any discontent by offering to film the rest of season 4 in Greece.
It would have previously been impossible for Tammy to make such a trip, but she recently underwent gastric bypass surgery and lost hundreds of pounds.
He even left rehab!
Finally!
“I worked my butt off,” Slaton told Us Weekly about how she achieved the weight loss goal required by doctors to qualify for the procedure, adding at the time:
“I was starving for a long time and my hard work paid off.”
It definitely is!
We couldn’t be more proud.
