KJV - Genesis 38:11

Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at thy father’s house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brethren did. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father’s house.

Judah told Tamar, his daughter-in-law, to stay a widow at her father's home until Shelah grew up. He feared that if she married again, he might also die like his other brothers. So, Tamar moved back to her father's house.
