Over the past few months, Tamar Braxton and her estranged husband, Vince Herbert, have been making headlines for all kinds of drama. From his love child scandal to domestic violence allegations and rumored financial problems, Tamar and Vince have dealt with all kinds of problems. But despite all of the drama, it doesn’t look like the famous couple is ready to completely throw in the towel. For the past couple weeks, there have been more rumors about the couple making plans to reconcile but it’s not all of what it seems.
Her Confession:
As we previously reported, when Tamar and Vince appeared on The View last Friday, they openly discussed the issues in their dwindling marriage. However, Tamar revealed an interesting fact about the rumors circulating about Vince having a love child. For those who missed all that drama, there was a messy triangle involving Tamar, Vince, and former Basketball Wives reality star, Laura Govan. But despite all the rumors and the so-called incriminating evidence, it was discovered that Vince doesn’t have another baby on the way. Surprisingly, Tamar admitted that she jumped the gun when she took to Instagram to blast her husband about the alleged love child. She even admitted that she regrets listening to her friends who claimed the rumor was true. When asked about the rumors, Vince blamed all of the drama on his soon-to-be ex-wife’s so-called “friends.” “People are miserable and if they see you happy they don’t want that,” Vince said.
But Don’t Get It Twisted…:
Despite Tamar’s confession and Vince blasting the singer’s friends in agreement, she made it clear that the love child is not the only reason why she chose to file for divorce. She revealed she filed for divorce because “we’re together each and every single day, we’re attached at the hip and it just got to be too much,” Tamar admitted. She also decided to go a little deeper with her explanation. According to E! News, the “Love & War” singer broke it all the way down. “I wish mine wasn’t real, I wish I could say that a lot of the times it’s made up, just so I could hide behind the truth sometimes,” Tamar shared with the co-hosts. “But in this situation, I absolutely have no reason to lie about my marriage and the things that’s happening in my marriage for ratings. I think that’s disgusting and I would never sell my soul to the devil like that.”

The Tamar & Vince star went on to reveal she and Vince are no different from the lyrics in John Legend’s classic ballad. They’re just “Ordinary People.” She continued, “I have a regular marriage and regular marriages like everybody else, things happen and in my marriage you know it was just to a point where I felt like divorce was the only option that I had left. Although we’re in extensive counseling and that is much needed and it still will always be, but I think the bigger picture of everything is that we have a responsibility to my amazing 4-year-old son and just to raise him in the most comfortable, amazing, loving, secure household that we can. That’s why we don’t live together.”
Living Separate Lives:
Tamar and Vince’s appearance on The View aired days before new reports surfaced about their Calabasas home. According to The Jasmine Brand, the couple has removed their home from the real estate market and re-listed it as a rental property. It has been reported that the couple is looking to rent out the sprawling mansion for a whopping $150,000. Yes, you read that right; $150,000 a month is the rental price tag for the home. So, it doesn’t look like they’ll be selling it anytime soon. Could it mean there’s still a chance for Tamar and Vince? While Tamar claims it’s a done deal, there’s one person close to her who isn’t totally convinced the marriage is over.
Toni Tellin’ It Like It Is?:
According to BET, Tamar’s big sis,’ Toni has a different take on all the drama. Although she made it clear she wouldn’t go into detail, the Grammy Award-winning singer isn’t convinced her sister and brother-in-law are completely over each other. “I think Tamar and Vince are just going through a ‘I hate you, Jody’ phase,” she said. “Remember the movie [Baby Boy]? ‘I hate you, Jody!’ You know that’s just their phase. And I think those two are going to get back together.” She added, “It’s not my business to tell their business,” she asserted, “but if I knew, I wouldn’t say anything.”
Not Here For It:
The couple may be amicable in order to co-parent and maintain their professional lives, but there very well could be a possibility they’ll reconcile. However, the Braxton family matriarch, Evelyn Braxton, ain’t trying to hear none of that. Mama Braxton made it clear Vince needs to stay his distance from her daughter and keep his hands off of her. After the domestic violence claims, the Braxton Family Values star spilled so much tea about the abuse her daughter suffered she sparked a media firestorm. During her quick chat with TMZ, she said quite a bit. “I’m tired of [Tamar] being abused and misused,” she said. “I love Vince, but I don’t want him to kill my child.”

A close friend of the Braxton family also shared similar details with Hollywood Life, “Tamar [Braxton]‘s family is very worried that she’s taken Vincent [Herbert] back again,” a friend of the family said. “This cycle had happened so many times already that it’s almost expected but that doesn’t make it less devastating. Tamar is insisting that she’s not back with him but her actions tell a different story. Her mom is beside herself with worry over her daughter and her grandson. Toni [Braxton] is pleading with her to make a real break and put some honest to God distance between them. It’s terrifying she’s back in this toxic situation.”
Still Amicable:
Despite the back and forth, Tamar insists their marriage is completely over. “We still work together now, we have a couple of businesses that are very successful, we do work together well.” She continued “As well as our connection and responsibly as being parents to Logan.” Best of luck to Tamar Braxton and Vince Herbert.
