Tamar Braxton And Vince Share Their Relationship Highs And Lows

Braxton Family Values star Tamar Braxton covers the latest issue of JET magazine with her husband Vincent Herbert. The couple who’ve been together for nine years talked making their relationship work and their first big challenge.

Vince says,

“We have fun, which is what a relationship is all about.   Tamar is the greatest. Like, we’d just drive to Disneyland, then go to the movies and fall asleep. Because we are friends and you can’t stress that enough in a relationship.   We have our arguments and disagreements, but that’s life.”

Tamar added that the biggest low in their relationship came when Vincent suffered a pulmonary embolism and had to be rushed to the hospital,

“It was the first thing we ever had to deal with outside of the normal relationship thing. It went from dinner, to a doctor, to a hospital, to he’s in a coma.   I had to sign a lot of papers. I’m happy that we were friends because when you’re going through ‘what would he do?’ you remember those conversations. At first Doogie Howser was his doctor, and I was like no. I want someone with gray hair.”

“We have a new outlook on life because of what happened. Everything before now has been erased.”

And for those still thinking Tamar is a gold digger, Vince has the answer,

“I love my wife. This girl is so far from being a gold digger. I wouldn’t be with someone like that for nine years.

To cement the point Tamar added,

“When I met Vince I had my own house. I had my own car. I was independent.”

We’ll be seeing more of this fun couple when they star in their own spinoff.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
