'1000-lb Sisters' Season 5 Finale: Who is Kevin? Amy Slaton's new BF expresses anger over threats, says 'not dating for money'
DIXON, KENTUCKY: '1000-lb Sisters' star Amy Slaton has a new boyfriend named Kevin, known as Mr Dad on YouTube and TikTok. Not much is known about his identity, except that he is a YouTuber. Kevin recently joined TikTok, with most of his posts featuring his girlfriend Amy Slaton, confirming their relationship. In a recent post, Kevin admitted to receiving numerous threats since disclosing their relationship.
He said, "The threats are just too much, people saying 'be good to her'...I understand they love Amy, they don't know me, their concern got it." However, Kevin is troubled by the "unnecessary" hate he has been receiving ever since revealing his relationship with Amy. Addressing his relationship with the TLC star, Kevin stated, "I have been good to her, and I plan on being good to her. People need to cut their stuff out because it just pisses me off." Kevin claims he is aware of Amy's fame, saying, "I wanna let everybody know it's not about the money, it's not about the fame." Kevin playfully teased that he has been on TV himself but refused to disclose when or where.
'1000-lb Sisters' star Amy Slaton's new BF Kevin dubbed 'red flag' after being spotted smoking on camera
As Kevin recorded the video about receiving threats from '1000-lb Sisters' fans, he was visibly smoking cigarettes on camera. Additionally, he claimed that he wouldn't care if Amy dumped him. After addressing trolls, Kevin stated, "She (Amy) might be like I don't like the way this guy is responding to my fans or whatever, I don't give a s***." He added, "When people start threatening me, that's s***'s personal right? yeah."
Observing Kevin's apparent indifference to Amy's response, one comment on a Reddit thread remarked, "Sounds like he's just using her for publicity. Amy's only months out from separation from Michael, and she's latched on to some new guy." Another claimed, "The smoking inside thing is wild. And, honestly, that's probably the least of the red flags here."
