You help them, Eugene. You help him. I tried to stop this. Me and Frankie, we came to you, and we asked you for your help. You could've changed this place into something else, something better. But you took care of you, and now you've gotta live with that.

Following the six year time jump, the Sanctuary fell apart as a community, with most of its residents integrating into Alexandria, Hilltop, and the Kingdom, though some chose not to join any of the communities. Since then, Tanya has not been seen among the communities after the Sanctuary fell, leaving her with an unknown fate.

Killed Victims

This list shows the victims Tanya has killed:

  • Possibly numerous counts of zombies

Relationships

Eugene Porter

Tanya and Eugene seem to have an unstable relationship. However, when they first meet, she seems to like, trust and be entertained by his scientific abilities. This is shown when Tanya jokingly asks Eugene if he can make a bomb, which leads to him to actually igniting a bomb. Tanya claps giddily. Later on, she explains to Eugene about Amber's depression, and being suicidal. She asks him to make pills for her, so she can die peacefully. Eugene agrees to this. When Eugene refuses to give Tanya the pills later, after realizing they were instead intended for Negan, she calls him a coward and threatens to lie and tell Negan that it was Eugene's idea to make the pills. Eugene admits that it would be a mistake as she, as one if Negan's wives, is replaceable and he is not.

Frankie

Tanya and Frankie seem to have a stable relationship. This is shown when they both ask Eugene to make pills for Amber, and are both seen laughing and clapping each when Eugene ignites his bomb. When Eugene refuses to give Tanya and Frankie the pills, they both call him a coward and are willing to lie to Negan to get the pills. Eugene ultimately tells them that it would be a mistake and they both leave.

Negan

Although their relationship has not been explored, Negan seems to be attracted to Tanya, since she's one of his many wives. However, it can be assumed Tanya dislikes Negan when she tells Eugene that he's the only "good man" she knows. When Eugene refuses to give pills to Tanya, it is revealed that the pills Frankie and Tanya wanted weren't for Amber, but for Negan. This shows that Tanya wants Negan dead and therefore doesn't care for him.

Amber

Although their relationship has not been explored, Tanya seems to care for Amber, and feel bad for her situation. This is shown when Tanya comforts her after nearly getting in trouble with Negan after secretly seeing her ex-boyfriend, Mark. It is also seen when Tanya proposes the idea for Eugene to make pills for Amber to take to end her suffering, and saying that all she does is cry and drink. However, it is later revealed that the pills weren't for Amber, opening the possibility of having a more neutral relationship.
