Tami Roman fans are concerned about the “Basketball Wives” star’s weight. A new photo of the reality star posted on her Instagram page even has her acknowledging her clear slimdown.

“Dear collarbone, long time no see. Glad to have you back in my life 😂😂😂😂🤷🏽‍♀️ only @styledbyudi will get this #MyG,” she captioned the Thursday, July 12 post.

In response, fans couldn’t help but sound off on Roman’s thin frame.

“Ummmm… I don’t follow regularly and I’m not on IG a lot but when this picture came up I was shocked. She looks emaciated. I understand the health issue but I have questions?!?”

“Suss, you on drugs?🤔”

“@tamiroman now your weight loss is beginning to appear unhealthy. Happened to me too. Ensure for a week will get you right #trust me.”

Other fans praised the star for tackling her health issues and getting in shape.

“She is getting healthy, eating correctly to keep her diabetes in control. Keep up your health journey @tamiroman, you look beautiful!”

“You look awesome. I’m also diabetic so I know how you feel one day you lose weight then you gain smh keep up good work.”

“Damn!!! People so irritating UGH! She’s choosing a healthier lifestyle which means weight loss is a result smdh. She looks great and seems like she’s in a great place mentally, physically, and spiritually. Yes!!! @tamiroman do yo thang girl👏👏.”

Roman has opened up about her weight loss in the past, acknowledged that she is slimmer and explained it was due to her taking control of her health in the midst of a battle with diabetes. She even slammed co-star Evelyn Lozada for saying she looked “like a crackhead” because of the weight loss.

“I didn’t lose weight, I lost my willingness to die. DIABETES IS NO JOKE!” Roman wrote on IG in June. “I detox, suppress my appetite and make better food choices. So enjoy yourself laughing, leaving negative comments & calling me a ‘crackhead’… but I have two beautiful daughters and I’m gon’ live for them by ANY means necessary. 💯”

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
