Kim Davis, 58, can easily be considered one of the most charming and funny participants on the current season of 'The Biggest Loser'. Despite being the oldest one on campus, the witty southern belle never let her age come in the way of her goal to lose weight.

After managing to escape elimination at least four times by the skin of her teeth, Kim finally got eliminated during the seventh week of weigh-in. Despite coming in second on the individual challenge and working tirelessly, Kim lost four pounds and had the lowest weight loss percentage, which meant that her time was up on the show.

When host Bob Harper announced that she would be going home, there wasn’t a single dry eye in the room. Everybody got very emotional about her elimination. She then gave an emotional speech about how being on the show was an opportunity of a lifetime for her, and she thanked everybody for supporting and encouraging her. Kim lost a whopping 35 pounds during her stint on the show, but that isn’t the end of her wellness journey.

During her one-on-one session with Harper, Kim revealed that she is having some issues with her husband and that they had separated for a brief period of time before getting back together. Despite getting back together, Kim said that she is still not happy but doesn’t want to be lonely in her 50s. She revealed how she avoids going back home after work because of her reluctance to face her husband. So, instead, she goes out to a restaurant or café for a couple of hours and goes back home after her husband is asleep.

At the end of the episode, Kim revealed that after going back home from the show, she sat down and had a long talk with her husband and they mutually decided to go their separate ways. She also added that she moved into a new house and is very excited about her life. We can’t wait to see Kim when she returns to the ‘Biggest Loser’ campus for one last weigh-in, and learn more about her health journey.
