‘1000-Lb. Sisters’ Reality Star Tammy Slaton’s Husband, Caleb Willingham, Dies At 40

Caleb Willingham, the husband of 1000-Lb. SistersTammy Slaton, has died at the age of 40. The news was confirmed by his stepmother, who did not state a cause of death or any other details.

“I am devastated to share the news of my husband’s passing,” Slaton, 36, said in an official statement. “He was my best friend, and I loved him dearly.” Slaton continued, saying that she appreciated everyone’s sympathy and asked for fans to respect both families’ privacy.

The TLC series 1000-Lb. Sisters centers around Amy and Tammy Slaton, two sisters whose combined weight is over 1,000 pounds. The show depicts their weight-loss journeys.

Slaton met Willingham at Windsor Lane Rehabilitation Center in Gibsonburg, Ohio, last year. He proposed to her in October, and the couple married a month later at the same rehab center. The celebration was small, including only 30 friends and family members, and was officiated by their home care nurse, Billy.

Speaking about the ceremony, Slaton said, “When I saw Caleb at the altar, I was just picturing doves and butterflies all around like God had opened up the clouds and let the sunlight in.”

Caleb Willingham aka Killa K aka Double K aka one-half of the dynamic WWF tag team champions The W Boys aka my biggest supporter in anything I do. You will be forever loved and missed. Until we meet again.”
