AMY Slaton has left fans very concerned after opening up about her mental state.

The 1000-Lb. Sisters star spoke about her mental health in a clip from the new season shared on Instagram.

In the video, Amy, 36, spoke to her family about her mental health and parenting her two children, Gage, 2, and Glenn, 1.

The TLC star was in tears as she sat at the kitchen table, and admitted: "I'm just like... he's running around, he's running around, and I'm just like exhausted all the time and hurting 24/7.

"Because I'm trying to take care of two boys and take care of the house, take care of mom. It's just a lot. And I was good before Glenn was born, like I had it under control. And when he was born it just went..."

Her sister Amanda Halterman cut in, and reminded Amy of her husband Michael Halterman, 40, from whom she's now divorced.

Amanda urged: "But listen. You're not alone in this, you're not the only parent. You have a husband that is perfectly capable of taking care of these kids for you to have a moment."

Amanda then summoned Michael into the room and pointed out Amy's emotional state, telling the man: "You know what I see when I walk in here? I see a messy house, yes. But I see that my sister is so depressed that she has no energy to get up and clean and do dishes."

In the comment section, many fans sympathized with Amy, and slammed Michael for not helping out with his kids.

One person asked: "Why is Amy taking care of everyone? Seems like the family needs to step up. Not her responsibility."

A second added: "I have two kids as well same age as them. I know how it feels, not having some free time. Feeling stressed, but my partner does help me. Michael needs to help her so that she doesn’t have to feel that way."

"Michael needs to help! They’re his kids too … he needs to act like a dad," said a third social media user.

Another fan simply said: "Hugs it will be alright."

BOY, BYE

Amy and Michael finalized their divorce on September 6, 2023, according to court documents obtained by The U.S. Sun.

Michael had originally filed for dissolution of marriage with children against Amy on March 13 and the exes had a long court battle spanning six months.

A memo left beside the court document read: "Marital settlement agreement is approved and incorporated by reference as if set forth verbatim and the parties are ordered to obey the terms thereof."

Michael filed for divorce against Amy back in March, but the reality star filed domestic violence claims against her former partner in February - and those charges have since been dropped.

After a long battle over the custody of their two children, Michael and Amy are splitting custody.

SUPER SISTER

Although Amy's divorce has only just been finalized, the star has quickly found a new man, Tony Rodgers, who has reportedly moved in with her in Kentucky.

Amy's sister Tammy Slaton, 37, reportedly doesn't approve of her new romance.

Despite Tammy's thoughts on her sister's relationship, a source claimed that she's stepped up to help out with the kids.

The insider claimed: "She has been taking care of [Gage and Glenn] a lot.
