Tammy Ly celebrated her birthday in the back of a van after getting sent home on the latest episode of Bachelor in Paradise.
Despite finding chemistry early on with Aaron Clancy, she thought she found the connection she was looking for in his arch-enemy from his season of The Bachelorette, Thomas Jacobs.
Aaron told Tammy that she would regret her decision in choosing Thomas over him and it seems like she did after she was sent home crying on her birthday.

One fan also connected with the failed dating experience and wrote, “Oh man, Tammy housing that sadness cupcake reminds me of a terrible New Years date I had one time.”
Another viewer admired the Bachelor alum and wrote, “Say what you will about Tammy, but she looked damn amazing on her birthday, even while eating a cupcake alone in a car after being broken up with. We’ve all been there girl.”
