Bonnie Chapman — the daughter of Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman and his late wife, Beth Chapman — is opening up about her recent weight loss.
On Friday, Nov. 1, the content creator, 25, posted a Reel on Instagram, in which she shared that she has “lost 58 pounds in the last 10 months” by using the weight loss drug Tirzepatide, a Semaglutide similar to Ozempic, and the telehealth service Morph Wellness.
“Tirzepatide is a Semaglutide and a lot of people are going to Semaglutides because they work,” Bonnie said in her video, which was shared in collaboration with Morph Wellness.
She went on to explain that she has polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a “hormonal imbalance that occurs when your ovaries create excess hormones,” according to the Cleveland Clinic, which has made “losing weight impossible” for her “entire life.”

Per the Cleveland Clinic, “between 40% and 80% of people with PCOS have obesity and have trouble maintaining a weight that’s healthy for them.”
Bonnie continued that she “probably” has “not weighed this much since I was prepubescent,” adding: “I am really proud of how I got here.”
The A&E alum also said that the drug has taught her how to make healthy decisions when it comes to her diet, stating, “Sometimes when I ate something that was too sweet, I didn’t feel great afterwards, and I realized, if I want to feel great all the time, I should be putting things in my body that I would be proud to say that I ate.”
According to Bonnie, the drug helps her “process food a little bit slower, so I stay full longer.”
“Here I am, 10 months later, I am so in love with the results. I am able to look at myself in the mirror and feel so proud of where I’ve gotten. I am at my goal weight,” she said.
Looking ahead, the reality TV star explained that she will now be focusing on other health goals that do not revolve around weight loss.
“I think if anything, I want to tone my new body, and I want to make sure that if I do have any fat that’s residual that I am able to get it off,” she said.
Bonnie also praised Morph Wellness and said they were “there with me every step of the way.”
