Tammy Slaton’s Husband Has Died
1000-lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton’s husband, Caleb Willingham, has died aged 40.
Slaton and Willingham first met last year while attending a rehabilitation facility in Ohio, where they received treatment for obesity.
They quickly fell in love and made their relationship official through marriage.
However, their marital bliss was short-lived, as they decided to end their union just a few months later.
Willingham was married to Slaton for five months before their separation, and tragically, his death has now been confirmed on Facebook.
