Tamar Braxton and Traci Braxton Not Speaking After Emotional Apology on ‘Braxton Family Values’ Finale

The season finale of “Braxton Family Values” aired Thursday, Oct. 4 and despite and emotional family mediation session with Iyanla Vanzant, things have not wound up harmonious between Traci Braxton and her younger sister Tamar Braxton.

After Towanda Braxton, Toni Braxton, Trina Braxton and Tamar walked off the set of BFV with their mother this summer, tensions within the family flared. Flames were fanned even more because Traci decided to keep filming with former “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Phaedra Parks. Tamar, in particular, took issue with that. In August she went on Instagram to blast Parks’ involvement, which Tamar said the family was “blindsided” by.

“I am confessing that I have been spoiled, obnoxious, emotional, unkind, unfair, disrespectful,” Tamar says when it’s her turn to admit what she’s contributed to the family’s dysfunction. “I have to be honest with everybody at this table. I came into this situation to basically exonerate myself and be right. That’s not my goal anymore. My goal now is to choose to be a better person.”

Fans weighed in on the moment online.

“This was so amazing and emotional…I’m proud of u.”

“Love Tamar for this, much love and respect ✊”

“NOPE! Not buying it!! #GirlBye.”

“She so full of s—.”

Tamar also gave an emotional apology to Traci and begged her to forgive her.

Traci did and asked for the same from her sis. Then, she said their “slate is clean.”

However, a recent interview Traci had with “Dish Nation,” indicated the siblings are still at odds over Traci continuing to film while the rest of the family ditched shooting over the summer.

While acknowledging that if she never had communications with her sisters again it would be “devastating” and feel as if she “lost a limb,” Traci also revealed during the Sept. 27 chat that she hasn’t spoken to Tamar since March.

“My sisters are everything to me. And maybe she’s waiting for me to reach out to her. And I’m waiting for her to reach out to me,” she added.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

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.
