FANS have claimed that 1000-Lb. Sisters’ Amy Slaton’s new boo looks just like Teen Mom Jenelle Evan’s ex-boyfriend Kieffer Delp.
The TLC star has recently returned to the dating scene after divorcing her husband of six years, Michael Halterman, in March 2023.
Amy, 36, posted a slew of new photos on her TikTok profile on Saturday as she enjoyed a hibachi dinner with family and friends.
In the first snap, the reality star posed for a selfie with a mystery man who was dressed in a black button-down with a white t-shirt underneath.
The guy soft-smiled at the camera, showing off his dark beard and a nose ring.
Meanwhile, Amy grinned by his side, flaunting her bright blue hair and black painted nails.
For a second photo, the TV personality snapped a candid shot of the same man seated alongside her nephew.
The pair seemed to be ordering meals from the server at the time the pic was taken.
Amy also shared a photo of the hibachi chef as he cooked, who was wearing a bright red and black kimono and a large black chef hat.
In a final photo, the YouTuber snapped her two sons, Gage and Glenn, who were seated in high chairs at the table.
The boys wore matching t-shirts that read, “Mom and son best friends for life.”
The tiny tots looked very focused on the hibachi grill as they watched their meal being prepared.

Amy captioned her post, “Amazing with @turnerturner31.”
FAN THEORIES
Fans were quick to narrow in on her mystery companion, as several raced to the comments to note that he looked strangely familiar to a former MTV star.
“Is that Kieffer?” one asked with a laughing crying emoji, suggesting that the man was Jenelle Evans’ ex-boyfriend Kieffer Delp.
Nearly 2500 people liked the comment as they agreed the two shared a strange likeness.
“Holy crap!!! Kieffer is that you???” a second wondered in all caps.
“‘Jenelle I know you’re with Kieffer,'” a third joked, noting a well-quoted line from the Teen Mom’s time on the show.
“Please tell me that is not Kieffer,” a fourth begged.
A fifth hoped that Amy wasn’t dating again already, pleading with her to remain single for a while.
“Amy it’s okay to be alone! Take time to heal and find yourself please,” they asked.
CLAPPING BACK
However, another fan seemed to dispel rumors that the mystery friend was Kieffer at all, writing, “Amy has known him since 2021.
“Y’all relax. Just cause she shares a picture doesn’t mean she’s dating them. We all gotta eat!!”
Amy replied to the comment, helping to clear up the speculation, saying, “He has a boyfriend!!!! They all be jumping to conclusions.”
In another comment, she further addressed rumors that her friend was Jenelle’s ex, saying, “That’s my nephew and my friend who has a boyfriend.”
Jenelle and David’s relationship timeline
The tumultuous pair have had their fair share of falling outs
Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans met David Eason on Tinder in September of 2015.
Jenelle got pregnant in April 2016 and announced she suffered a miscarriage, then she became pregnant again with her and David’s daughter, Ensley, a few months later.
The pair got engaged in February 2017 and tied the knot that September.
A year after saying “I do,” Jenelle called 911 and accused David of assaulting her outside their home. She would later call the incident “a drunk and dramatic misunderstanding” and said she was “fine.”
In around May 2019, David shot and killed their French bulldog puppy named Nugget. Weeks after the incident, CPS took custody of all of the children, including their daughter, Ensley, Jenelle’s son, Kaiser, and David’s daughter, Maryssa.
When her children were returned to her, Jenelle fled to Tennessee with Kaiser and Ensley and filed an order of protection against David in October. She ultimately dropped the case and went back to him.
In the following years, the couple sparked split rumors as the pair would often unfollow each other on social media and update their Facebook relationship statuses.
As The U.S. Sun exclusively reported, on February 23, 2024, Jenelle filed for separation from David. She stated that she filed the documents with “the intent that the separation be permanent” and claimed that Eason had “exhibited concerning and at times disturbing behavior towards [her]” throughout their marriage.
JENELLE AND KIEFFER
Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans’ ex Kieffer Delp was famously her first on-screen boyfriend.
The former MTV stars reportedly first met while attending a beach party in 2010.
He appeared in many episodes and was even the inciting factor of several blowout fights between the TV personality and her mom, Barbara Evans.
Jenelle and Kieffer were off and on for years, as she would regularly return to his company after breaking up with her other short-lived romances.
They were last together in 2015 shortly after her split from Nathan Griffith, with whom she shares her son Kaiser.
LEGAL STRUGGLES
After his last breakup with the Teen Mom star, Kieffer went off the radar for a while, until he turned up in Pennsylvania in 2018.
The MTV alum made headlines that year when he was arrested for running a meth lab out of his apartment.
He was charged with possession, intent to distribute drugs, and risking a catastrophe, according to The Trib.
Kieffer was found guilty and sentenced to 18 months in prison which he served and was released in 2020.
But his freedom was short-lived as he failed to report to his parole officer and was forced to return to prison for five more months the next year.
In 2022, Jenelle’s ex was arrested again for shoplifting before falling off the radar once more.
He hasn’t posted on any public social media profiles since 2024.
Meanwhile, Jenelle married David Eason in 2017 and the couple has suffered various marital issues throughout their seven-year relationship.
