Biggest Loser divorce: Sam Poueu and Stephanie Anderson Split Before two months before their first baby is due


Biggest Loser couple Sam Poueu, 28, and Stephanie Anderson, 33, who met during 2010's season, got married in April 2012.

But now, barely a year later, seven-month-pregnant Anderson released a statement announcing their split.

'It is with great sadness that my marriage to Sam Poueu is ending,' Anderson said. 'Thank you in advance for respecting our privacy during this difficult time.'

After collectively losing 241 pounds in body weight on The Biggest Loser, Sam and Stephanie Anderson seemed to be on their way to a long and happy life together.

Sam managed to lose 136 pounds after taking part in the show, and ended weighing 236 pounds, two pounds less than his target.

Meanwhile Stephanie dropped over 100 pounds.

By episode three of the show they were dating and Sam proposed on the show. They married in the same San Francisco Catholic Church where her parents had wed 39 years earlier.

The wedding came 8 months after Sam almost died after falling 54 feet from a fire escape.
