‘Never Known a Braxton to Not Drink’: Trina Braxton’s Q&A with Towanda Braxton Derails After Fans Speculate Towanda Is Pregnant

Trina Braxton and her sister Towanda Braxton spent the afternoon of Tuesday, May 19, answering fan questions on Instagram Live. During the Q&A segment on their chat, Trina drank a martini, while Towanda politely passed on the alcoholic beverage. The reality stars of “Braxton Family Values” shared their beauty secrets and even gave advice to the graduating class of 2020. However, when a fan asked Towanda if she was expecting, she refused to answer the question.

Towanda revealed on season 6 of “BFV” that she was in a relationship with music producer Sean Hall. Towanda and her ex-husband Andre Carter divorced in 2017 after 12 years of marriage. Together, Towanda and Carter share a daughter in Brooke Carter and a son in Braxton Montelus Carter.

Trina, Towanda, Tamar Braxton, and Toni Braxton went on a siblings trip to Napa Valley, California, last season. Everyone except Towanda participated in the wine tasting portion of their trip, causing Tamar to be suspicious of Towanda’s behavior. The “Love and War” artist explained in her confessional that she believed Towanda was pregnant. Towanda explained to her younger sister on their hit reality show that she was no longer drinking because she did not want to. As of now, neither Towanda nor Hall has addressed the pregnancy speculations.

Independent journalism still matters.

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.
