Firebrand senator Jacqui Lambie wished Tammy Tyrrell well after she announced her decision to quit the Tasmanian's network and go it alone on the crossbench.
In a statement released on Thursday evening, Senator Tyrrell revealed she had resigned from the Jacqui Lambie Network and would remain in the upper house as an independent.
Senator Lambie on Friday issued a response.
"One of my missions has always been to give people who aren't part of the political class an opportunity to serve the Australian people," she said.
"I wish Tammy all the best of luck. We will both continue to represent the great state of Tasmania in the Senate.
"This does not change our working relationship or friendship."
In her own announcement, Senator Tyrrell said she no longer had the confidence of the Jacqui Lambie Network.
"While Jacqui has not kicked me out of the network, she has suggested that I go it alone," she said.
Senator Tyrrell was elected to the upper house in 2022.
She worked for years as Senator Lambie's office manager before entering parliament.
The Jacqui Lambie Network won at least two seats in the Tasmanian state election.
