1000-lb Sisters Season 7 Episode 5 featured Tammy's mom, Darlene, meeting Andrea for the first time. Before their meeting, both Tammy and her girlfriend Andrea were nervous. Tammy worried that her mom might embarrass her too much in front of Andrea.

On the other hand, Andrea was nervous because she usually feels this way before the first meeting with anyone. After they all met, things went well, and they enjoyed their chicken and drinks.

After meeting Andrea, Tammy's mom figured out that she was Tammy's girlfriend. She confessed to the cameras that it was "the way Tammy spoke" about Andrea.

"I think Tammy was afraid for me to meet Andrea, but I don't really care about women on women and men on men deals. So I figured it out on my own that it was her girlfriend in the way she spoke about her. If Andrea genuinely cares for Tammy and makes her happy, then I'll be happy with her," confessed Darlene.
