Instead, she was the one who stepped away due to the show starting to focus more on the cast members’ journey to weight loss surgery. She added, “I admit, I’m frustrated by what I feel was manipulation and dishonesty behind the scenes. However, I’m relieved not to be dealing directly with the negativity that surfaced throughout this process.”

  • “As much as I don’t care for her I don’t believe this lol.”
  • “their whole storyline is fake because they said that they all went to school together. They all went to the high school reunion together but Megan and Vanessa are like 41 or 42, Ashley‘s like five years younger than them and then Tina is like 14 years older? The only ones that I think knew each other was Vanessa and Megan.”
  • “While she does not look great, she looks great for 55!!! I would’ve thought 45.”
  • “I can see the new Tina being 55, but not the old Tina.”
  • “There is no way she is 55. She just posted that to get compliments.”
  • “I think she is older like 50 but the ages on Cameo are wrong. They said Dr. Procter is 31 years old.”
