1000-Lb. Sisters megastar Tammy Slaton has clarified her sexuality not up to twelve months after the demise of her husband, Caleb Willingham.
“I’m a supporter of everybody,” Slaton, 37, stated in a Tuesday, January 16, TikTok video, responding to a social media commenter who requested whether or not she is a member of the LGBTQIA+ neighborhood. “Well, I was saying I was pansexual but I kinda stopped messing with guys after my husband passed. So, I’m like a lesbian.”
She added, “Love is love. Everybody deserves love whether they’re gay, straight, trans, pan, bi, nonbinary [or] whatever. I’m just a lover.”
Slaton married Willingham in November 2022 when they met at a rehab facility twelve months prior.
“It was the best day of our lives,” Slaton gushed to E! Information in January 2023 in their wedding ceremony day. “There was so much love in the room. I’m thankful that so many family members and our family from the rehab were able to come. … When we had our first kiss he leaned forward and hit the control switch and drove right into me knocking me back into my wheelchair!”
In a while after their nuptials, Slaton underwent gastric bypass surgical operation with Willingham by means of her aspect.
“We support each other wholeheartedly,” she solely informed Us Weekly in February 2023. “On our weight loss journeys, when he’s having issues with wanting to eat because he’s bored or because he’s an emotional eater, he comes to me and we talk about the situation. It’s the same for me and I talk to him. We talk about our issues and why we feel this way. We are true partners.”
Slaton added on the time, “He treats me so different from any other person I was with. He truly was a godsend [through my weight-loss efforts].”
5 months later, Willingham died on the age of 40.
“Rip sweet angel you will forever be missed and loved so much,” Slaton wrote by means of Instagram in July 2023. “Thank you Caleb for showing me real love and happiness ❤️❤️.”
A number of days later, Slaton published by means of her TikTok that she used to be dealing with the other “stages of grief.”
“Yeah, we were having problems, but I loved that man and I still do,” Slaton stated via tears. “I know he’s looking down on me. You know, he’s not in any pain anymore. I know he’s in a better place.”
Willingham used to be laid to leisure in an intimate funeral carrier in August 2023. Tammy used to be joined by means of her family members, together with sister Amy Slaton, on the memorial.
