‘Amish Mafia’ Star Esther Schmucker News: Former Reality Star ENGAGED To Abusive Ex-Boyfriend Imir R. Williams? [VIDEO]
Amid reports that she won't be returning to her hit reality show if it is allowed to air a fourth season, Amish Mafia star Esther Schmucker is also allegedly engaged to the ex-boyfriend who severely beat her last fall.
Esther Schmucker Not Returning For Fourth Season Of 'Amish Mafia?'
A post was allegedly made on her official Facebook page over the weekend, the first in over a month, which announced that she was engaged to Imir R. Williams, but it was swiftly deleted, making fans wonder on the page if the star's account had been hacked.
"Her marriage announcement must have been the work of a hacker. I see that the picture and comments are gone," one fan posted on her page August 16.
"I saw her husband post now missing and wondered what was up," another fan commented.
And while any potential posts by Schmucker which could announce that she intends to marry Williams have been removed from Facebook, the private Instagram account she had previously told fans was her official one does feature a profile photo of the star, with a man who appears to look like Williams kissing her cheek, hinting she could still be with him.
Williams confirmed last week that Schmucker would not be returning to the Discovery Channel series for a fourth season when appearing before Lancaster judge Dennis Reinaker for allegedly contacting Schmucker over 400 times while serving a five-month prison sentence for violating the terms of his parole from his first prison stint after he attacked her last October-breaking her nose, cheek and several teeth in the process.
Williams defended his most recent actions, which included using another inmate as a liaison between himself and Schmucker by telling the judge that he loved her and had only wanted to check on her falling a car accident in June.
"I love her, your honor," he said at his August 12 hearing. "I didn't even find out about the accident until reading the newspaper. I've been sitting in jail and realized my freedom is important."
If Schmucker and Williams are actually engaged to marry, it wouldn't be her only reported engagement this year. The third season of Amish Mafia, which was filmed during the same period of time as Williams' attack, saw the engagement of Schmucker and her co-star Lebanon Levi Stoltzfus.
That engagement ended on the show however, after Stoltzfus shacked up with an English girl in Atlantic City and was caught by Esther. According to how the story was told on the show, she began seeing Williams shortly after, which led to the attack.
Amish Mafia has not yet been confirmed for a season four return.
