“1,000-Lb. Sisters” star Amy Slaton was arrested at a Tennessee zoo Monday and charged with drug possession and child endangerment.
Deputies were “immediately overtaken by suspicious odors coming from the guest’s vehicle” at Tennessee Safari Park while responding to a call about a zoo-goer being bitten by a camel, the Crockett County Sheriff’s Department wrote on Facebook.
The reality star, 36, was arrested and charged with illegal possession of schedule I and schedule VI drugs and two counts of child endangerment, authorities confirmed.
A man who was with Slaton inside the vehicle, Brian Scott Lovvorn, was also arrested on the same charges.
“Both subjects have been booked into the Crockett County Jail,” the sheriff’s department said.
“The charges and allegations referenced in this release are merely accusations of criminal conduct and not evidence.”
Cops released a mugshot of Slaton wearing an orange jumpsuit and looking worse for wear.
Police also shared Lovvorn’s mugshot in the Facebook post.
The news comes after Slaton finalized her divorce from her ex-husband, Michael Halterman, in September 2023.
He filed to end their marriage in March 2023.
In documents obtained by Page Six at the time, Halterman requested a restraining order to keep the TLC personality 500 feet away from him. He also asked that they stay 500 feet from each other’s residences.
The exes eloped in 2017 and said “I do” in front of cameras during a more formal wedding ceremony two years later.
They share sons Gage, 3, and Glenn, 2.
Slaton weighed more than 400 pounds when she first appeared on her popular TV series with her sister, Tammy Slaton, in January 2020.
She has since undergone gastric bypass surgery, which has helped her lose more than 170 pounds.
