1000-lb Sisters' Tammy Slaton shares emotional post one week on from husband's death

1000-lb Sisters' Tammy Slaton has shared an emotional post one week on from her husband Caleb Willingham's death, with fans quick to support the star.

Last Saturday (July 1) it was announced via Facebook that Tammy's estranged husband Caleb, 40, had died. His younger brother took to the platform to reveal the sad news, with Tammy later confirming his death online and to People Magazine.

And now Tammy, 36, has seemingly shared an emotional post that fans are presuming is about her late husband.

Taking to Instagram one week after the news of Caleb's death broke, Tammy shared a quote which reads: "Even though we don't talk every day. Just because you live far away. You're on my mind til each days end. I'm proud to say you are my friend."

The reality star shared no caption or further explanation for the post, but fans were quick to send love and support to Tammy, with many talking about and referring to Caleb in their messages.

One person penned: "Thinking of you at this difficult time and sending you healing hugs." While another wrote: "Beautiful post miss Tammy! So sad over Caleb's passing. He seemed so sweet and loving."

"Sending love and prayers you you beautiful lady. He lives on always and will see the world through your eyes always. Stay strong. We love ya," added a third. While a fourth said: "Praying for you Tammy."

Caleb met 1000-lb Sisters star Tammy last year in a food rehabilitation centre, with the pair falling in love soon after and making their bond official by getting hitched. But five months later, the news broke that the couple were parting ways.

Earlier this year an insider spilled to the US Sun that Tammy was in the process of filing for divorce from Caleb, with the outlet and many others referring to them as exes. In reports since Caleb's passing, it is alleged that Tammy split from Caleb back in May due to him not following his diet.

Following the news of Caleb's death, Tammy took to her Instagram page to share a slew of unseen snaps of the couple. "Rip sweet angel you will forever be missed and loved so much thank you Caleb for showing me real love and happiness," she penned in the caption.

She then told People Magazine that she was "devastated" and loved Caleb "dearly", adding: "When I met Caleb he became my guardian angel and now he really is watching over me."
