Tami Roman has had her feuds and laughs with multiple ladies on the VH1 hit Basketball Wives in which she amassed millions of fans. Although the show has given her a huge platform which she launched multiple businesses and even her own Bonnet Chronicles show from, she is saying goodbye to the series after this season.

A fan page posted an interview from her appearance at the BET  Awards where she explained why she was not signing up for any more installments.

‘The final season for me, season 8, but I’m sure they will get another season, and you’ll be able to see all the ladies. I’ve been doing this [the show] since 2010, and it’s just run its course for me in particular. It takes a lot of time to film Basketball Wives, we’re in that thing for six to seven months at a time, so I just wanted to have the opportunity to have some free time to do some other things.’

Roman has had her funny and relatable moments as well as her harsh and villain-like storylines on the show making her great for TV no matter what your opinion is on her. In the season that’s currently airing, Tami has secretly wed Reggie Youngblood and is contemplating whether she wants to tell her co-stars due to the fact that she doesn’t know who will be genuinely happy for her.

The comment section was flooded with people who will be sad to see her go but understand her decision.

One fan wrote: ‘I’m glad she moving on. I’m very proud of her.’

This one added: ‘Very proud of Tami! You’ve got to know when to open your hand and go out with grace!’

While another said: ‘I will not be watching anymore if she not on it, so this will be my last season too.’
