Possible.: There is a chance you can still get pregnant since tubal ligations are not 100% effective. Make sure you check a pregnancy test. If it is positive, see your doctor right away because there is also a chance of an ectopic pregnancy (pregnancy outside of the uterus, e.g. In tube). Best wishes.

Anything is possible: Odds are in your favor the late period sisdue to another cause but u need to check a preg test to make sure a s a tubal can fail anytime but unlikely after all that time.
