Tammy Slaton embraces new beginnings in brother Chris Combs' renovated home

In the clip, Tammy Slaton and her brother, Chris Combs, walked through a home that he renovated hoping Slaton would be his tenant.

“Just keep your mind open,” Chris Combs encouraged as they walked through the under-construction home tailored for Slaton’s needs.

The 38-year-old reality star, visibly grateful, expressed, “I’m just one of those really appreciative, thankful people.”

Acknowledging her limited knowledge about home construction, she added, “I’m just thankful to have a place offered that has a roof and stable foundation.”

Family tensions flare as Chris and Brittany Combs clash over renovations

However, the home tour took an unexpected turn as Chris Combs and his wife, Brittany Combs, clashed over additional kitchen renovations.

Brittany’s desire for more space led her to describe the current layout as “dumb,” sparking a brief but heated exchange.

Fans quickly took sides in the comment section, with some praising Chris as a “wonderful brother", while others questioned his approach after witnessing the exchange.

“I like the layout,” Slaton shared optimistically, adding, “I think it would be a suitable place for me.”

She made a heartfelt plea to her brother and his wife for peace, saying she didn’t want to be the reason behind any family strife.

Fans laud Tammy Slaton’s weight loss transformation but also express concern

While viewers celebrated Tammy Slaton's 500-pound weight loss and fresh start, the video sparked heated debates around her finances and family dynamics.

"Good. He’s a wonderful brother," said a user.

The clip also prompted viewers to wonder about Slaton’s financial situation, with comments like, "I don’t get how Tammy can’t afford to buy her own house? She’s got to have money."

"How much is this show paying them because Tammy been the star for about 8 years now, where is the money 😏," chimed another.

"My guess is Chris was just super overwhelmed already by all the renovations that needed done, and he didn’t want extra added on top of that. I think eventually he’d be open to her suggestion. Cut him some slack people, he’s human like us. He’s shown he’s a great guy," read a comment.

"Seriously TLC! Why can't Tammy afford her own place? Are you not paying these people enough to afford decent housing while you pocket a fortune off their talent? This is disgusting & although I love the show, it's shameful actually!" penned a user.

"Tammy has really turned a new leaf and I'm so happy for her," said a user.

"TAMMY HAS COME A LONG WAY🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷" added another.
