Tammy Jean Scalfani (née Flanders; born 17 July 1973) is the wife, special-needs carer and primary enabler of Jack Scalfani, and the mother of Jack Scalfani II. Tammy is the daughter of Carolyn and Donn Flanders.
She did not appear much during the first years of the show, but later played a bigger role both on the main show and Jack on the Go as the camerawoman and taste-tester. After Jack's fourth stroke which rendered his right dominant arm useless, Tammy has played a vital role in Jack's everyday functions and often on the show she has to mix, chop and dice ingredients, lift heavy pans, and pour liquids for him.
Early life
Tammy Flanders was born 17 July 1973 in Tennessee. She moved to Los Angeles sometime during the late 80s and worked as an accountant at several different firms; often holding the title of accountant manager. Not much other information is known about Tammy's life before Jack.
Education
Tammy enrolled in university to obtain a Master of Business Administration (MBA) in order to support Jack's unemployment and his fanciful aspirations of achieving stardom.
According to Jack's ex-friend Joe Chavez, Tammy claimed to have obtained her college degree from a small, former college named "Irvine College of Business" in south Orange County which is completely unrelated to the legitimate and much more prestigious UC Irvine college. Jack asserts that this college is now defunct because it allegedly burned down, so there is no way to verify Tammy's educational background.
However, a search on the degree mill website BuyDiplomaOnline reveals that the Irvine College of Business closed in 1996, contrary to Tammy's LinkedIn profile, which states that she attended the institution from 1993 to 1997. As a result, Tammy may have obtained a fake degree, lied about her qualifications, or simply does not recall her own educational history.
Relationship with Jack
Meeting
According to Jack, in May 1992, he saw Tammy working at a bowling alley when she was 19. Jack, apparently a "sucker for baby faces," would repeatedly return to the bowling alley while Tammy was working to ask her out on a date. Eventually realizing that Jack was not going to give up, she conceded and agreed to go on a date with him.[2]
First date
For their first date, Jack invited Tammy to his job as an MC at Elizabeth Curtain Call, a theatre and dinner show room that is no longer operational, presumably located in or around Orange County, California. Jack was sick with a fever of 104° but was so desperate for a rebound after the failure of his previous marriage, he fought through it; a feat he is greatly proud of[3]. When Tammy arrived, she was ready to leave immediately, only willing to give Jack five minutes to meet her before she decided to leave. However, Jack revealed himself to her over the microphone with a loud "BABE!" At that moment, Tammy, who had only seen Jack wearing a hat before, was shocked to see how bald he was without his hat for the first time, a memory she still recalls distinctly 25 years later.
The show playing that night was Anything Goes, and even on their very first date, Jack complained about the meal, criticizing the dry chicken and insisting that Tammy "review" the sour cream - a pattern that would continue to shape the next 30 years of their lives.[4]
Marriage
The early stages of their relationship are marked by unclear and conflicting circumstances. It remains uncertain what attracted Tammy to Jack, who had previously made his own child homeless. It is possible that Jack withheld these details from Tammy, or she may have been indifferent to them.
Shortly after they met, Tammy introduced Jack to her faith, and the couple married on August 29, 1998, in an extravagantly Western-themed wedding, financed entirely by Tammy's family. Both Jack and Tammy wore inexpensive wedding rings styled in what could be described as "Colombian Drug Lord" chic, which lost their shine in 2015 and required redipping.
In 2000, they welcomed their son, Jack Scalfani II.
