A few weeks ago, Tamar Braxton shocked fans when reports surfaced about her divorce filing. But what was more shocking was her mother’s response to the whole ordeal. For those who missed it, Evelyn Braxton let the cat outta the bag when she revealed her estranged son-in-law, Vince Herbert, had been physically abusing her daughter. Of course, there was lots of speculation about domestic violence between Vince and Tamar, but Mama Braxton confirmed it all and she hasn’t stopped talking since.

Now, she’s sharing even more details. This time, she’s opening up about an incident she experienced, firsthand. Apparently, Vince also got out the box with her on this particular occasion.

Witnessing Abuse:

Evelyn Braxton recently appeared on the daytime talk show, Sister Circle, and she admitted that she was actually inside the house with Tamar and Vince during one of his alleged abusive episodes. She recalled hearing a sound in the house that seemed as if “the elevator was falling.” Mama Braxton claims she saw her daughter running from Vince. At the time, she had her grandson in the room with her but she stepped out of the room momentarily to confront Vince. That’s when she claims he went off on her.

“I ran back to the room because the baby was in the bed with me,” she added. “I was very much afraid for the baby. I put a chair behind the door. I barricaded myself in the room, and held that baby all night long. That’s no way, no way, for anyone to live.”

Damage Control Or Nah?:

The latest news follows reports about Tamar’s relationship with her mother. Apparently, she’s not too happy about her mother speaking publicly about the abuse she suffered during her marriage to Vince. An insider claims that, as of two weeks ago, Tamar wasn’t speaking to her mother, according to Page Six. “Tamar is not speaking to her mother right now after [Evelyn] told [paparazzi] cameras Vince needs to keep his hands off of her. She added fuel to domestic violence rumors,” the insider said.

Tamar also attempted to do damage control following her mother’s previous statements. “My husband and I work very close together and it’s really hard . . . He’s my best friend. It’s a lot of things to discuss and argue about.”

Despite Tamar’s attempts to do damage control, Mama Braxton has made her sentiments quite clear. She refuses to remain quiet about the abuse her daughter has suffered. “I think Vincent is a bully, fighting, cursing, name-calling,” she said. “What bothers me is that the baby is right there in the midst of it.”
