"1000lb Sisters" star Tammy Slaton is reportedly back on the dating scene again, but casting her net wider this time.

As fans are aware, the 37-year-old reality TV star recently said farewell to her husband, Caleb Willingham, who sadly passed away earlier this year from unknown causes. However, a month after she laid him to rest, Slaton, who came out as pansexual in 2021, is ready to date again, but insiders have spilled that she may be looking for something a little different.

"Tammy has lost all of this weight, and she's ready to get back out there," the insider revealed, referring to the TV star's nearly 400 pounds weight loss journey. They continued saying:

"Caleb passing away was hard for her, but they were already having problems, and she felt he didn't have time for her. Tammy felt that he didn't put effort into trying to move to Kentucky and get out of rehab to be with her."

As iterated, this announcement comes after she hosted Caleb's burial ceremony near her home in Kentucky, surrounded by friends and family to pay their respects. However, it seems the intimate gathering didn't go as she had hoped.

Per reports, the widow was mad at the reality show producers for making her late husband's funeral appear more "depressing" than it was. She blamed the channel for "forcing drama" at what should have been an extraordinary event.

Slaton was spotted shedding a tear in the front row at the funeral, where she sat alongside her sister Amy Slaton. However, a source had affirmed that the ceremony "wasn't that sad."

"The filming of the funeral was 'completely not natural,' and things were put in there to make it seem sad when it really wasn't that sad. People were having fun, but [TLC producers] made it depressing," they claimed.

The insider also said that the doting wife worried fans would think she had relapsed because of how TLC filmed the funeral before adding, "She isn't emotionally relapsing or going back on her diet - she's doing great."

A second source mentioned that Slaton is determined to stick to her diet as she believes it "could have been her" who died. This is in spite of Caleb, whose health had reportedly "continued to get worse" before his death after he allegedly gained 30lb (2.1 stone) while at a food rehabilitation center.
