Inside Slatons' London trip expenses: '1000-lb Sisters' vacation hits wallet hard with ancestry hunt
'1000-lb Sisters' stars Amy and Tammy Slaton along with their brother, Chris Combs, and sister-in-law, Brittany Combs, went on a London trip which will be featured in an upcoming episode of the TLC show. The adventure came with a lot of expenses including sightseeing, meals, and accommodations which would cost around $800 to $1000.
However, the viewers have been wondering if the trip was funded by TLC or if the cast members had to pay their own expenses. While TLC has not confirmed who covered the expenses, there are speculations that the production likely picked up the tab for most of the trip.

Amy, who is a history buff, recently discovered that her family has been related to the Queen of England. She claimed that her mother often talked about their UK roots when they were kids. The TLC show stars want to dig deep into their ancestry and want to visit all the places in London that could probably answer their questions.
