On Tuesday, August 19, the singer and reality star took to Instagram to share a candid and emotional post about her recent health scare. Reposting a quote that read, “Thank you God for waking me up today,” Tamar added her personal account, giving fans a rare glimpse into her life-altering experience.
Tamar’s Close Call
“I struggled to write this but everyone keeps calling me and honestly, I can’t even really talk anymore I’m so weak. I almost died Sunday,” Braxton revealed. “I was found in a pool of blood from my friend with a face injury.”
She continued, describing the physical toll of the incident:
“As the days go by the worse it is. I fractured my nose, lost some teeth and mobility. The way I look at life now is totally different.”
Tamar also shared that her recovery isn’t just physical. “As my health is on the mend, my mental journey begins. Pray for me for real. I don’t even know what happened to me,” she wrote, asking fans for prayers and support.
Details Remain Private
Braxton did not disclose the specific cause of her injuries or provide images of the incident. She did note that it was a friend who discovered her, highlighting how sudden and serious the situation was.
Fans and fellow artists quickly sent out messages of love and concern, flooding her social media with encouragement. Tamar’s post comes at a time when she is also balancing professional commitments and personal healing.
Returning to Reality TV
Before this scare, Tamar had been involved with her family’s reality series, The Braxtons, which airs on We TV. The show is gearing up for its second season, and Tamar has been featured alongside her sisters in ongoing storylines.
“The main reason for wanting to do The Braxtons again is because of Traci,” Toni Braxton shared in the first season’s trailer. “She asked us to do this — this was her last wish,” added Miss E, reflecting on the late Traci Braxton’s influence on the series.
Tamar continues to honor her sister Traci’s memory. In April, she shared a clip on Instagram celebrating what would have been Traci’s 54th birthday, writing:
“Happy Heavenly Birthday beautiful @therealtracibraxton. We miss you down here sis!! But I know God didn’t want to see you sick like that, so he brought you home to himself to heal you.”
Balancing Career and Health
Amid her recovery, Tamar had been scheduled to tour with Ro James on October London’s October Nights: Calling All Lovers Tour. While she hasn’t yet announced adjustments to her schedule, fans are hopeful she will be able to return to the stage safely.
This near-death experience has also caused her to re-evaluate her perspective on life, emphasizing the importance of mental health alongside physical recovery.
