It’s going to be an emotional season for Amy, but we already know that she’s moved on from Michael and is now in a happy relationship.
Amy Slaton opens up about her new boyfriend Tony Rodgers
Amy is no longer hiding her man from the public as she went TikTok official with Tony a few weeks ago.
However, the mom of two has taken things a step further and is now talking about her new romance.
During a chat with E! News, Amy admitted she wasn’t sure when would be the right time to go public with her relationship after a public divorce.
However, Amy said, “The sparks just flew and I knew I had to go for it.”
She also touched on her divorce from Michael during the interview and noted that filming her marital issues proved “emotionally challenging.”
Nonetheless, the 36-year-old reasoned that it was “worthwhile” if it could “help other women stand up in a bad marriage.”
“It’s important to be vulnerable because even if it’s hard to watch, I know that’s going help somebody somewhere,” added the TLC star.
