Tami Roman’s Latest Pic Has Fans Doing a Double Take: ‘I Thought You Were One of Your Daughters’

Tami Roman has legs for days and she flaunted them for the ‘Gram this week, sending fans into overdrive.

The “Basketball Wives” alum dazzled in a bright green, basket-weave dress adorned with purple and gold flowers. With her legs on full display, the 49-year-old stood tall in a pair of red pumps that were the cherry on top of an already splashy ensemble.

In the caption, Roman wrote: “What a blessing it is to stand tall and say, ‘Of course there were times life has knocked me to my knees. I just used them as an opportunity to PRAY before getting back up.’ πŸ“Έ @ksmithqos”

The inspiring post racked up over 27,000 likes from fans, who cheered the reality star’s latest look and couldn’t help but gush over her youthful glow.

“Gurl I thought you were one of your daughters!,” one fan commented under the photo. “Looking so good mama!”

“Come on Legs!!! 🦡🏾🦡🏾🦡🏾” casting director Leah Butler also chimed in.

One fan suggested Roman was turning back the clock, writing: “So beautiful 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 omg you age backwards πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•.”

“U look amazing…that’s what HAPPY looks like…” wrote another.

Roman is stepping into a new chapter of her life after confirming her exit from “Basketball Wives” in September. The outspoken mom of two joined the show in its second season and has become a fan favorite over the years.

“I’m in a different head space in my life right now,” Roman said in an adieu to the Vh1 series. β€œAnd I really want to try to live my life as close to black excellence as I can. I have been around these girls since 2010 and I think it’s time for me to move on.”

“We’ve laughed, we have cried,” she added. “They have supported me in my endeavors and I have supported them. I have been at the forefront of some of the most BS moments in history, and I wanna do better because I know to do better. It’s been nine years, it’s been a good run.”

Independent journalism still matters.

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.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

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.
