Tamar Braxton Unfollows Her Entire Family on Social Media After Stating They Filmed About Her Suicide Attempt for ‘Braxton Family Values’ Behind Her Back

“I don’t need you or your show!”

Tamar Braxton is not happy that WEtv chose to film her family reacting to her July suicide attempt, and after taking the network to task for the decision on Twitter and Instagram, the former Braxton Family Values promptly booted her entire family from her social media accounts.

The Neighborhood Talk confirmed that Tamar is no longer following any of her sisters, or her mother Evelyn, as of press time. This mass “unfollow” seemed to happen around the same time that Tamar took to Twitter to rant about her family and WEtv’s decision to film about her suicide attempt, despite the fact that she is no longer on the show.

On Instagram, Tamar told a follower that the trailer for the upcoming season of ‘Braxton Family Values’—which shows the Braxtons finding out Tamar tried to take her own life— had scenes that were filmed after she left the show and “behind my back.”

In the new trailer, Tamar’s mother and sisters each talk about how they felt when they heard Tamar had tried to commit suicide. 

“I was stunned and really numb,” Towanda Braxton tells the camera. 

“There was no way to prepare for this,” Trina Braxton adds.

Tamar took to Twitter on Wednesday to express her anger towards the network and “others” (presumably her family members) for using her “pain for their pleasure and ratings.”

“After waking up to that disgusting trailer…. F**K @wetv and whomever else is participating in using my pain for their pleasure and ratings,” Tamar wrote, while promoting her upcoming “tell all” interview on The Tamron Hall Show. “ … at some point this abuse HAS to STOP!! !!”

Following her suicide attempt, Tamar slammed WEtv for not letting her out of her contract, as well as underpaying and overworking her, among other things.

First and foremost, Thank you. Thank you to each and every individual who has prayed for me, thought of me, sent me their love and has showered me with their support. In this present moment, it is my only responsibility to be real with myself and to be real with the ones who truly love me and care for my healing. I have without fail, shared with you my brightest days, and I know that sharing with you what has been my darkest will be the light for any man or woman who is feeling the same defeat I felt just only a week ago. Every one of us has a desire, whether small or big, to make it out of where we come from to an ideal future place that includes, freedom to be who we choose, security for our children and families, and fortune to share with the ones we love. We believe these things can co-exist with just being happy. I believed that, that as a black woman, as an artist, an influence, a personality I could shape my world, and with whom I believed to be my partners, they could help me share my world. Over the past 11 years there were promises made to protect and portray my story, with the authenticity and honesty I gave. I was betrayed, taken advantage of, overworked, and underpaid. I wrote a letter over 2 months ago asking to be freed from what I believed was excessive and unfair. I explained in personal detail the demise I was experiencing. My cry for help went totally ignored. However the demands persisted. It was my spirit, and my soul that was tainted the most. There are a few things I count on most to be, a good mother, a good daughter, a good partner, a good sister, and a good person. Who I was, begun to mean little to nothing, because it would only be how I was portrayed on television that would matter. It was witnessing the slow death of the woman I became, that discouraged my will to fight. I felt like I was no longer living, I was existing for the purpose of a corporations gain and ratings, and that killed me. Mental illness is real. We have to normalize acknowledging it and stop associating it with shame and humiliation. The pain that I have experienced over the past 11 years has slowly ate away at my spirit and my mental.

WEtv promptly cut ties with Tamar after her statement was released; the network chose to continue to air Tamar’s spin-off show, Tamar Braxton: Get Ya Life, though.

ToniTrina, Evelyn and Towanda and Traci Braxton have yet to comment publicly on Tamar’s latest rant.
