LANCASTER COUNTY, Pa. (WHP) — After spending a month with Amish families in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, an upstate New York woman has decided she wants to become Amish.
Billie Jo Heffron was one of six English “outsiders” to take part in TLC’s new show, “Suddenly Amish.” Each of the six participants, from all over the country, gave up their worldly possessions, cut ties with the outside world and donned Amish attire to give the lifestyle a try.
Billie Jo was one of two people who decided to pursue the Amish life after the show’s finale. She sat down with CBS 21 Monday to reflect on the experience, what made her decide to stay Amish, and what’s next for her. You can watch the full interview on the CBS 21 YouTube channel…
