Tami Roman is back in action and looking great after fans of the former Basketball Wives star criticized her tremendous weight loss.

After Tami revealed that she lost weight due to diabetes, the Basketball Wives star claims she feels insecure when it comes to younger females being in her new beau's presence.

According to Sister 2 Sister, his name is Reggie and he is 17 years younger than Tami. Reggie seems fine with the age difference, but Tami seems cautious.

“Of course I would be insecure. I can’t be out at the club. I can’t be twerking. My knees is bad ... I have real bills and expenses and mortgage and cars and stuff and they have no responsibility,” the reality star revealed to thejasminebrand.com about her worries from younger women who may get the attention of her man. “He is more age appropriate with that particular demographic than with me.”

Tami shared that she and her new love have plenty of things in common, including past trust issues, but Tami said they are growing strong and learning to trust each other.

Tami admitted she didn't want to talk about Reggie during her time on the show, claiming that:

“I’m very private when it comes to my relationships. In order to have a good relationship, there are no signs of it on Instagram,” she added. “I’m taking a chance right now. Let me just be open and honest about what’s going on in my life ... I am so afraid that I’m just going to be labeled the cougar of the century.”

Reggie is close in age with Tami’s older daughter, as she's almost the same age as Reggie’s mom. But age difference is the least of Tami's worries: She said debating on having a child together is the issue now.

Reggie wants a child of his own, and Tami already has two girls from her previous marriage.

“We’ve talked about it. We’ve had several discussions. It’s up in the air right now,” she shared.

As for their date nights, Tami said it's all about compromise because they like different things, like movies.

“When I go to the movies, I want to see The Butler or something like that, where he wants to see the Ninja Turtles,” she giggled.
