When asked by a viewer if Haley was 'her girl', Tammy explained that 'there is nothing there' between them.
"Yes that girl in the video is me, but the other girl - the blonde - is Haley Michelle, one of my best friends. There is nothing there y'all," she continued.
Tammy went on to urge, per the Mirror: "I wish people would stop assuming stuff about me, like I appreciate you all trying to look out for me and everything, believe me I do. I have a girlfriend.
"Haley is just my friend, my girlfriend's name is Andrea, that's all I'm going to say about my girlfriend."
She concluded the clip assuring fans: "Haley is honestly just a friend, she is married to a man. And the other girl Paela, she's married to a man. It's all friendship, we're just friends."
Fans were quick to share their congratulations for Tammy following her announcement of a girlfriend with one writing: "Don’t worry about what people say that’s your business!!"
"A girl can have friends! Keep going lady!" supported a second, while a third chimed in: "Tammy, since WHEN do you need to explain yourself? You're doing very well with your life, weight loss and all! You look AMAZING!"
And a final TikTok user added: "Girl you don't have to explain yourself to no one. Go live your life and continue to shine!"
The news comes after the death of Tammy's estranged husband, Caleb Willingham, who passed last summer.
The pair first met at a weight loss rehabilitation facility in Ohio back in 2022, and got married in November of that year, only a month after he proposed.
At the time of the wedding, the lovebirds described the special day as 'magical' with Tammy previously telling PEOPLE: "Our wedding day was perfect, there was so much love in the room.
"I literally married my best friend."
Tammy revealed: "I was so nervous sitting in the chair, getting my hair done and my makeup done, seeing my family all dressed for my wedding.
"My brother pushing me down the aisle, seeing all my friends and family just looking their best. And then, seeing my husband and seeing how handsome he looked. It stopped my heart.
“And then the ceremony! Awesome! Everything! The vows my husband said. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding. Then the kiss sealed the deal - that was my husband!"
The romance was short-lived, however, as it was reported by The U.S. Sun that the couple parted ways in May 2023.
