Tamar Braxton has never been one to shy away from public drama, but this time around homegirl is showing restraint regarding the tension she apparently has created with her fiancé, Jeremy “JR” Robinson. A surprise move for many of her fans, and it’s also proof of her putting her ‘grown-woman shoes’ on and owning up to her part in what JR described as her shadily “poking the bear” when it comes to the level of disrespect she publicly allows to be placed upon their union.
Tamar’s Apology To Fiancé, JR Robinson
In a lengthy apology statement Tamar posted on Instagram, she stated the following:
“When you truly love someone, hurting the person that you love is far worse than being hurt BY the one you love. I’m new to true love and loving myself. I’m so sorry that it’s you that has to feel the trial and error.
I wish for the opportunity to give an apology and be forgiven in it ALL. In relationships, we take being forgiven for granted. It’s a blessing to be able to say I’m sorry and see another day in the war of love in this together. No matter how much I feel like I was right…you felt wronged. And I gotta respect that.”
Tamar continued:
“I’m not embarrassed for being open about how I feel. I’m embarrassed of how I made you feel. I’m sorry.”
JR’s Pissed-Off Statement That Sparked Tamar’s Apology
In case y’all haven’t heard, a few days ago JR took to Instagram to let Tamar know he was sick n’ tired of being sick n’ tired with the shade he says she continues to indirectly throw his way in interviews and whatnot.
Most recently, was the interview Tamar did with reality show creator, Carlos King (see video below). During the interview, Carlos referred to JR as “Colonel Sanders”, stating “Let’s talk about Colonel Sanders, honey. When I look at him I sometimes crave a two-piece chicken.” Tamar lightheartedly responded with, “He do not look like that.” Yet, she didn’t say much else in JR’s defense, as the audience and Carlos pretty much continued to briefly chuckle about the comparison between the Caucasian KFC chicken mascot and JR.

Shortly after the interview aired, JR took to Instagram, via a now-deleted post, to sound off about the continued “shade”:
“Truth is – they are not ready for me to tell my side of the story. I keep choosing grace. But I can only be thrown under the bus and not defended for so much longer… I’ll be Colonel Sanders and give you some chicken to eat with my story… Keep poking the bear!” – JR Robinson
He continued:
“A man can only take so much. I always want to protect – even when we aren’t together, but stop allowing indirects to throw me under the bus. Your shade creates more uncertainty and your people thrive on stating what you never say. I’m too graceful and that’s coming to an end. Thanks CK [Carlos King].
Apologies mean nothing when you come for my foundation. You know the truth but want to kiki – well, I guess the exclusive has to come out. Tired of protecting people and getting sh*t on. Their hoe phase was during my in love phase. Flowers and billboards don’t mean sh*t when you have had your heart broken.” – JR
Tamar became engaged to her attorney-fiancé after JR was a contestant on the Peacock channel’s dating show, “Queen’s Court.” Toward the end of 2023 they had a brief split after JR cited other apparently toxic relationship woes they were having. Two months after their split, Tamar expressed that she wanted JR back, after he’d seemingly moved on with female reality TV star, Tommie Lee. Throughout their relationship, many social media commenters have thrown shade at Tamar for choosing a dude outside of her race. So, maybe that has further intensified the issue JR has with Tamar, when she doesn’t come to his defense after folks throw shade at him directly to her face.
At any rate, wishing those two lovebirds the best goin’ forward.
