Tamar Braxton is finally breaking her silence about her divorce from Vincent Herbert.
In a lengthy open letter, Braxton explained that she could no longer fake the funk in her marriage, writing in part, “Sometimes we stay ‘married’ for face value or to say ‘we did it”’ but the truth is..it couldn’t be more broken & further apart than we are NOW!..even on an anniversary!
“You can say he did this,she did that,I put up with ‘this’ & I’ve suffered & endured ‘this’ for so long..but the TRUTH is that this was your choice2 stay??♀️we get so caught up in WE are ‘winning’ in love that we are LOSING a battle that doesn’t have ANYTHING 2 do with us!”
While Braxton’s family members have gone so far as to suggest that Herbert could have been violent with his wife, Braxton is careful in her letter not to give specifics. However, she did hint that things weren’t as good at home as they seemed:
I decided I didn’t want to be married for the sake of saying so.I wanted to have a relationship.Someone to share my/our dreams,our successes, our failures,our past,present & future with..& not finding out shenanigan online??♀️..some of us ??have been have been living a LIE!..& sometimes when things R shared,what’s NOT being surfaced is that he has one or several girlfriends,or she’s never home,or he’s very general when he speaks,or “this doesn’t sound like him”? or he’s so busy lately!!.etc.etc..u have to think to yourself?When is enough enough? Is it ok that he checks up on u when his phone(s) R stuck to him like glue?Is it ok that his friends are HIS friends but my friends are “our” friends? Or, we fight but that’s “passion”❌ let’s get deep for a second..we can argue & u can tell me to gtf out of “your”house when I’m the house of cards?None of this is ok..& while I’m not pushing anyone out of the door..I’m just telling you what has pushed me out of mine!That LAST time was the LAST time??
It sounds like this divorce is going to stick, despite reports that Herbert is trying to reconcile. We’ll just have to wait and see how things ultimately shake out.
