Tammy's Swimsuit Pics & Friendship With "Paranormal Princess" Raise Eyebrows (Do You Think Her Pal Is A User?

Summary Tammy Slaton's friendship with Haley Michelle seems genuine, despite fan concerns about ulterior motives.

Fans worry about Tammy being taken advantage of, but Haley appears to be a loyal and caring friend.

Haley Michelle's unique and fun personality brings light to Tammy's life, enhancing their friendship.

1000-Lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton recently dazzled the reality TV world by posting a racy swimsuit photo featuring her and pal Haley Michelle, and the blonde woman who posed with her fascinates Tammy's fans. On Instagram, followers question Tammy's friendship with her new pal, wondering if that woman's using her. While this type of chatter's unkind, Tammy's used to getting shade. She seems devoted to her friend - they enjoy dressing up together. Aside from Amy Slaton and Chris Combs, the blonde is one of the most recognizable faces on Tammy's IG.

Because she has a "witch Barbie" look and Tammy doesn't (not yet, anyway), some people seem to find their friendship odd.

The glamorous Haley is a "princess" type, and, in fact, she refers to herself as a:

paranormal princess

On the surface, these two might not seem like a good match, but there's more to chemistry than how people look. Tammy considers her "best friend" a kindred spirit and soul mate. That's a beautiful thing, but fans worry about Tammy, who lost 420 pounds after weight-loss surgery. They're afraid she's getting taken for a ride by the pretty young woman who's often at her side. On Tammy's Instagram, one "fan" lashed out at Tammy's pal, saying:

Another “influencer “ using Tammy for “More Clout” Listen, ask yourself…would you be friends with Tammy if she wasn’t famous?? NOOOO smh I just think it’s sad Tammy & Amy doesn’t know when they are being used.😢(it doesn’t matter if she already has a large following this will boost it even more)

Tammy Slaton Needs To Be Cautious With New People

However, Haley Michelle Seems Loyal To Tammy Slaton

It's true that famous people are preyed upon. Their entourages usually include people who have ulterior motives. These lackeys are fair-weather friends who may melt away when a star experiences some kind of reversal of fortune. For example, if a celebrity loses their fame or gets embroiled in a wild scandal that negatively impacts their reputation, a hanger-on may let go. Is Haley really a user? Facts about her friendship with Tiktoker Tammy are out there and people may be too hard on Tammy's golden-haired buddy.

Anyone who spends a little time looking at Haley's Instagram posts will probably feel better about her relationship with Tammy. That's because Haley seems like a very nice person. Sure, she might enjoy the clout she gets from being around the newly slim Tammy, but she probably enjoys her company too. People are complicated - Haley could enjoy the clout and also care about her pal. Haley definitely doesn't seem like the kind of person who'd stab her friend in the back.

Haley Michelle Is Funny, Pretty, Kooky & Cool

Haley Michelle's A Fun Friend For Tammy Slaton

On IG, Haley's delightfully kooky - her memes are actually funny sometimes, including the post above, which most introverts will appreciate. Haley seems extroverted on social media, but she's got her quieter, more introspective side, as the post above shows. A lot of her Instagram activity is amusing. In an age where people are bombarded with ego-driven content that's all about trying to be cool, she has the courage to be weird. This self-professed witch loves creepy dolls (so does Tammy), and got excited about finding a Chucky doll (from that Child's Play movie) at Walmart.

Haley is VERY hard to dislike, so it's not just her epic paranormal glamour that makes Tammy a part of her fan club. Haley's a kooky witch, it's true, but this is one pulled together paranormal princess. She's always runway ready. In Othello, as per LitCharts, Shakespeare memorably said:

She never yet was foolish that was fair.

So, if the Bard speaks true, there's quite a clever brain under that candy-floss blond hair and perfectly painted pout. Indeed, Haley's a charmer who does her best to entertain her followers. While her witchy darkness should make her edgy, she's more zany than threatening. Haley probably brings a lot of light to her pal's life. It's unlikely she'd be cruel to Tammy, who's rocked black magic style herself.

Haley's a grown woman with a husband and a taste for impersonating Disney princesses. She's a 30-year-old Virgo who has it together (as most Virgos do). Haley isn't evil incarnate. She monetizes her passions, but what's wrong with that? Nothing. Virgo is an Earth sign, so under all that expertly applied makeup, which she doesn't really need, there's probably a down-to-earth and modest person who goes out of her way to help the people she loves. The sweetest Virgos are the most humble people around.

Judging is easy - nothing is simpler than picking someone apart. It's much harder to try and understand where they're coming from. Fans could be throwing shade at a very nice woman who really cares about Tammy. Critics may be planting seeds of doubt when there's really nothing wrong - that's why keyboard warrior antics can be so negative. Fans should think twice before hurting Tammy.

Haley seems empathetic on Instagram - not mercenary. While Instagram is theater, it does leave clues as to a person's "real" self. Haley seems confident and her friendship with Tammy appears to make her happy. She isn't hurting Tammy - just look at 1000-Lb Sisters' Tammy Slaton's face when she's with her friend. She looks overjoyed.

Whether fans approve or not, Tammy and Haley are definitely in the swim of things. They're having fun and creating some amazing content at Instagram and TikTok. Hopefully, Tammy (learn about her weight loss journey in the clip above) won't let fans' doubts and fears get in her way. She's overcome so many obstacles, and when fans try to make her afraid, even if they mean well, they're possibly doing a lot of emotional damage.

If Tammy trusts her friend, that should be good enough. The last thing that Tammy should do is live in fear. Dealing with problems head-on, if and when they arise, is her best plan, and so is focusing on her health. The 1000-Lb Sisters star has shown the world that she can do anything. For the brave body makeover sensation Tammy, the sky's the limit.
