How old are Tammy and Amy Slaton?
Tammy and Amy are so close in age that it's no wonder some people assume they're twin sisters. Tammy turns 37 on July 27, 2023 and Amy turns 36 on Oct. 28, 2023 — meaning Tammy is currently 36 and Amy is 35.
To be more exact, they are a year and three months apart. It makes sense, then, that they always seem to be at odds with each other. They also used to live together and Tammy expects a lot of Amy despite Amy moving out, getting married, and having a kid.
In some ways, Tammy and Amy argue like teenagers. Then again, they're sisters. And sisters sort of get a pass to be immature when they fight with each other. Just look at the way Amy and Tammy call each other "b---h" like it's a term of endearment. There's little chance that anyone else could get away with treating Amy the way Tammy does.

Tammy and Amy often butt heads on '1000-lb Sisters.'
When Amy decided to step back from her caregiver duties with Tammy in Season 3 of 1000-Lb Sisters, Tammy didn't like it. From her perspective, Amy has all the time in the world to help her out and hang out with her during the day while Amy's husband is at work. But Amy decided she was ready to focus more on being a mom and less on caring for Tammy.

This led to the sisters squabbling over pretty much everything. From Amy's decision to hire a home nurse for Tammy to Amy insisting that Tammy calls in her own prescriptions, things haven't been easy between them.
But Tammy and Amy's relationship is rarely easy.

Tammy Slaton's health issues have been serious through the years.
Regardless of Tammy's age, she has health problems that have needed immediate attention through the years. Because of her weight and the fact that she had COVID-19, she was oxygen, seemingly around the clock. She also had trach put in when she suffered from carbon monoxide poison.
These days, Tammy's weight loss journey is looking up. That's because she was approved for bariatric surgery in Season 4 after exceeding her goal of getting down to 550 pounds. Her most recent weigh-in showed 334 on the scale!
Watch 1000-Lb Sisters on Mondays at 9 p.m. EST on TLC and on Discovery Plus.
