Tammy Slaton, who has embarked on an impressive weight loss journey, was busted for drug possession shortly after her husband Caleb Willingham, passed away.
The “1000-LB Sisters” star was arrested for possessing marijuana and drug paraphernalia in Kentucky after the police responded to a complaint.
‘1000-LB Sisters’ Tammy Slaton Charged With Marijuana Possession
On August 4, a Sturgis police officer responded to a complaint about the incident. It is unsure who filed the complaint, but the reality star was busted. Three days later, she was charged with one count of possession of marijuana and two counts of possession of drug paraphernalia.
The run-in with the law, however, came at a shocking time — a mere five days after she attended her late husband Willingham’s funeral. Recall that he passed away on July 1 at the age of 40. The devastating news was confirmed by his stepmom, Shirley Willingham, who didn’t give more details about his death.
According to criminal records, Tammy is due back in court for some sort of diversion plan on April 24, 2024.

A heartbroken Slaton further confirmed her husband’s passing with an emotional statement that read, “I am devastated to share the news of my husband’s passing. He was my best friend and I loved him dearly. When I met Caleb he became my guardian angel and now he really is watching over me. Our families appreciate everyone’s sympathy and ask that you respect our privacy at this time.”
She later took to Instagram to mourn his loss, sharing a carousel of photos of them hugging. “Rip sweet angel you will forever be missed and loved so much thank you Caleb for showing me real love and happiness,” she wrote in the accompanying caption.
Willingham, nicknamed “Killa K” or “Double K”, met Slaton at a rehab center in Ohio to get medical assistance for obesity. They got engaged in 2022 and eventually tied the knot that same year.
However, around the time of his passing, it was reported that the lovebirds were at loggerheads over Willingham’s dieting issues.
