Tammy Slaton Shares Heartfelt Moment with Fiancée Amidst Family Tragedy
SHE'S HEAVEN-SENT! Tammy Slaton Breaks Silence After Cousin's Tragic Passing
The 1000-lb Sisters star has finally opened up about her cousin Katie Slaton's heartbreaking loss, and trust us, it's a rollercoaster of emotions. Just when you thought the Slaton family had weathered their fair share of storms, tragedy struck again.
Katie, who was only 37, had been bravely fighting stage 4 gastric adenocarcinoma – a rare and aggressive form of stomach cancer that diagnosis just a few short months ago. The news of her passing sent shockwaves through the family and fans alike, with Tammy's sister Amanda Halterman sharing the devastating news on social media.
"It's with a completely crushed heart and spirit that I have to post this," Amanda wrote on Instagram. "My little cousin went to sit at the feet of Jesus yesterday. She was a force to be reckoned with and showed love that was accepting and given freely. She was the life of the party, and my best friend."
Now, Tammy Slaton is attempting to stay positive, sharing a heartwarming TikTok video of her dancing in the car with fiancée Andrea Dalton – just two months after revealing their engagement on the Creative Chaos podcast.
The clip shows the couple having the time of their lives, laughing and joking as they dance to Footloose. "Me and my fiancée, we just kind of chill at home," Tammy said in an interview with Hunter Ezell, shocking him with the news: "Hold on, you said fiancée?"
As fans fawned over the adorable couple, it's hard not to notice the spark between them. After all, they've been together for around three years – a far cry from the recent revelation that Tammy has lost interest in men after her previous husband Caleb Willingham's passing.
In a jaw-dropping moment of honesty on her reality series, Tammy revealed that she had only recently come out as pansexual and was now interested in women. "I don't know how my family is going to react when I tell them I'm seeing a woman," she confessed, revealing the couple has been together for almost three years.
But let's take it back to Katie – whose passing has left an indelible mark on the Slaton family and fans alike. Before her passing, Tammy had rallied behind her cousin on social media, asking supporters to donate to her GoFundMe page and share their thoughts and prayers with the family.
"Y'all, I'm so sorry to be asking a big favor like this," she wrote, "but if anyone can help, even if it's a dollar would help my cousin out so much. She has been on my show, but this is something new; our family just found out about her having cancer."
As the family navigates this difficult time, fans are sending their love and support to Tammy and her sister Amanda – who will undoubtedly be grieving the loss of a loved one.
But don't worry, folks! As we wrap up this somber article, we're reminded that even in the darkest times, there's always hope. And what better way to celebrate life than with some good old-fashioned dance moves?
