1000-Lb Sisters fans have lauded star Chris Combs for his behavior at Tammy Slaton’s wedding. When 1000-Lb Sisters debuted in 2020, Tammy, alongside her sister Amy Slaton weighed a combined 1000 lbs. Although the sisters planned to work on their weight and get their life together, they had to overcome certain obstacles to achieve their goals.
Tammy’s journey took longer than her siblings’ for many reasons. However, after a life-threatening incident, Tammy has achieved her weight loss goals and even found a lover. Given Tammy’s history of pain on the show, her wedding to Caleb Willingham delighted fans and her family.
During the 1000-Lb Sisters Season 4 finale, fans watched Tammy slip into a beautiful white gown, holding onto a large bouquet of sunflowers. Tammy had the support of family and friends, including her sister Amy doubling as an event planner and bridesmaid. However, another family member who stole the show was beloved elder brother Chris Combs.
1000-Lb Star Chris Combs Looked Proud of Tammy
Since Tammy’s wedding episode aired, fans have been raining plaudits on Chris. The viewers were so impressed by his behavior throughout the ceremony, and they took to Reddit to air their thoughts about him. One Reddit user, u/urkelplop started a discussion thread about Chris’ behavior at the wedding with the caption, “Chris seemed so proud.” The OP then highlighted Chris’s look when he saw Tammy in her dress.
The 1000-Lb Sisters fan also labeled Chris a “big ol’ brother bear” and noted how enjoyable it feels watching Chris care for his siblings as he does. Most of the fans agreed with the OP’s sentiments and praised Chris for being the best brother to his siblings. While commenting, u/Granny_Skeksis listed all of Chris’ outstanding qualities. The user wrote,
“Chris is a real prince. He’s so protective and clearly loves his family. I’m literally so proud of him, too, with his weight loss. He looks amazing.”
1000-Lb Star Chris Combs Is Protective of His Sisters
One factor that makes Chris popular is his personality and pivotal efforts in his sisters’ weight-loss journey. A Redditor, u/Princess-Soprano, pointed out how Chris almost plays a father-like role in the family. The user praised him for being very protective of his sisters and consistently trying to look out for their best interests.
Fans highlighted how immense he has been for the girls, given the void left by the “absence” of their mom, Darlene Rednour. However, the sisters’ poor relationship with their mom has been swept into the background thanks to Chris’ calming presence. Meanwhile, some users also used the opportunity to commend Chris on his weight-loss journey. One user, u/1Czy-Bleu_Bird2576, said,
“He looked really good! Very proud of his success. He started a bit later than his sisters with weight loss surgery but has passed them up. He’s really dedicated to his journey.”
It is almost impossible to take the place of a parent for any child — no matter how old. However, Chris has seemingly slotted into that role for his half-sisters, and fans love him for it.
