Tammy and Phillip’s breakup

Tammy’s sister Amy Slaton was not a fan of Tammy’s last boyfriend, Phillip.

“I’m trying to motivate Tammy, because I do have my worries about Phillip, the new boyfriend,” Amy said in a recent episode. “He loves big women, but she needs to lose this weight.”

But Tammy’s relationship didn’t last long.

“We broke up,” Tammy told Amy. “I guess you could say I did it, cause I was tired of fighting with him and he said my insecurities were my problem. And, like, at the beginning of the relationship I told him, I was like, can you promise you’ll help me through my insecurities. He said it got to be too much.”

“I’m very quick to trust, and that’s one of my downfalls,” she continued. “So in the long run, I do end up getting hurt real hard, real bad.” 

“Him saying you’re insecure and stuff, maybe that needs to be the motivation to be, like, getting your inner demons worked on,” Amy said.
