After an emotional season of WeTV’s hit series the “Braxton Family Values“, singer Tamar Braxton said she’s quit the show for good.

Braxton has experienced a whirlwind of family drama and emotions during season 6 of “BFV”, but that chapter of her life has come to an end. The “Empty Boxes” singer took to Twitter on Friday night and revealed she will not be filming another season of the reality show.

One of Braxton’s fans asked the star if she’s “coming back next season?” She abruptly replied, “No!!!” followed by dozens of explanation points

Fans flooded the singer’s Twitter to send Braxton their support.

“I’m sooo glad! It’s gotten so toxic!”

“Although I’m going to miss you,I’m so happy you’re not returning. It only makes others THINK that they have the authority to judge or criticize you.& that shit pisses me off.They pick & choose what to believe or what to deem as TRUTH.I look forward seeing achieve ur every desire.”

“I will miss your presence, but I understand sometimes you just have to move on! Blessings to you!”

“It might be best. I like you because you are who you are🤷🏽‍♀️. There are some things that you need to work on but hell… me too. I understand you’re upset at Ms Iyanla but she’s really good.”

“Yesssssssss!!! Good for u babe.”

During the current season of “BFV” Braxton revealed to her family she was sexually abused by a family member, spoke about her divorce with Vincent Herbert and got into a huge fallen out with her sister Traci Braxton in the midst of filming.

Tamar thanked her fans for supporting her through such an emotional season and said she hopes she can “continue being a reflection of REAL LIFE.”

“This has been one INCREDIBLE journey. I have experienced extreme highs and extreme lows all in front of you all! Being open and honest with you guys is what I feel made us all connect in the first place,” Tamar tweeted on Thursday. “I hope that just as you can see the anger and pain you can see the desire and dreams that have come true.”

Still independent.

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.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
