The cast of “Breaking Amish” has come a long way from the days of horses and buggies. Now, it seems, drama has finally begun to overtake the Dutch.
First for the TLC program, there was Rebecca Byler’s shocking confession that she has an infant daughter. Now, it’s aspiring model Kate Stoltzfus saying she has no connection with her castmates…and expressing hopes to land her own reality show.
“Kate hates her castmates from ‘Breaking Amish’,” a “show insider” is quoted as saying by US Magazine. “She has no camaraderie with them, she can’t really relate anymore. She has big dreams and they aren’t in line with everyone else.”
Making matters worse for the “Breaking Amish,” Byler was apparently married before she joined the show. But there has been much speculation as to the father of her baby. Her new hubby Abe Schmucker says to those questioning them: Leave his family alone!
There are also rumors that Byler and Schmucker dated before the show. But Byler says it isn’t true. “[Fans] can believe whatever they want, but if they want to know, they can watch the show. If they don’t want to believe, they don’t have to believe it. That’s my opinion. I don’t give a s–t what anybody thinks. People have to discuss our lives so much that we can’t even have our own life anymore. They’re making us out to be somebody I don’t even know.”
In the meantime, Stoltzfus has been working toward getting her life back together. She is dealing with the aftermath of her Florida DUI, and completing alcohol education classes. Kate says, “I’m trying to get everything in my past and move on,” she said during the November 18th reunion episode of the show.
Kate plans to move to New York permanently soon, and is looking to do a spin-off show detailing her aspiring modeling career. On the season finale, Stoltzfus did a photo shoot for a Spiegel catalog, and as the US insider says: “Her team has their fingers crossed on the spin-off.”
Will there be a “Breaking Amish” season 2? With all the drama surrounding the cast and Kate’s aspirations, it seems less and less likely.
