In an clip obtained by , Amy meets up with her older sibling for a workout and kicks off a conversation about Phillip, which leads Tammy to drop the bomb.

"We broke up," Tammy shares. "I guess you could say I did it, cause I was tired of fighting with him and he said my insecurities were my problem.

"And, like, at the beginning of the relationship I told him, I was like, can you promise you'll help me through my insecurities. He said it got to be too much."

Amy tries to look at the positive side of things and responds: "Him saying you're insecure and stuff, maybe that needs to be the motivation to be, like, getting your inner demons worked on."

"I got an inner demon?" Tammy asks, clearly confused.

"Yeah, your inner food addiction, and your insecurities," Amy says, as she urges Tammy to lose weight before her next visit to her bariatric surgeon, Dr. Eric Smith.

Amy, 34, explains: "Now with your Dr. Smith appointment coming up you've got to show some real progress, so you need to do this like, every day. Even when I'm not around."

During a confessional, Tammy, 35, opens up more about the breakup: "I'm very quick to trust, and that's one of my downfalls. So in the long run, I do end up getting hurt real hard, real bad."

Amy also shares her thoughts in a separate interview: "Tammy told me she broke up with Phil, and I'm like, about damn time.

"Now you need to work on yourself. Tammy don't need somebody that wants her to be a glutton."

Amy adds: I'm hoping with the whole breakup, it don't deter Tammy away from her weight loss, because she needs to lose this 25 lbs. The doctor gave her a goal."

TAMMY LOSES IT

The split comes just a short time after viewers saw Tammy lash out at her sister for slamming her relationship.

In the episode, Amy talked to Tammy and said: "I've got a lot on my mind. A lot on my plate.

"I can't handle your drama, so at the end of the day you have to make your own choices."

Tammy clapped back by saying she didn't expect Amy to "handle her drama."

Amy continued: "You can date whoever the hell you want, but if you want a mistake it's on you, girl. I can't be your mom."

Tammy fought back by saying she knows Amy isn't her mother, and added: "You have no freaking opinion in what I do in my life.

"I'm a f**king grown girl. You isn't my mother."

BBW KING

The drama all erupted after Tammy's family learned that Phillip is known on as the BBW (Big Beautiful Women) King.

On his Instagram page, Phillip makes no secret about his love for heavy women, declaring "the bigger the better" and explaining he is after women over 300lb, or above a clothing size 24.

Tammy previously said: "So he likes big girls. He's just a supporter. And he knows very well that I'm on a weight loss journey. And he's okay with it.
