In case you haven’t yet seen Thursday night’s (10-4-2018) episode of “Iyanla Fix My Life,” featuring a 2-part season finale with the Braxton fam,’ get ready, because bombshells were definitely dropped.
In a nutshell, the whole family has serious issues with each other. It was the typically guarded, Toni Braxton, who had her sisters and parents damn near clutchin’ their pearls with her latest confession. Simply put, the R&B legend is hurt and pissed with her family- ALL of them…including her Moms. Matter of fact, not only is Toni pissed with them, she does NOT even like them- her words, not ours. Don’t take our word for it though, see what she said for yourself below.
(Video) Toni Makes Shocking Confession To Family
In a tense family therapy session with the ever-so-talented life coach, Iyanla Vanzant, Toni let her family know exactly how she feels about them:
“I am confessing that although I love my family, most of the time, I don’t like my family. Everyone in my family. Everybody. It’s like, I’m angry at everybody in my family. I don’t like my family! If they weren’t my family, they wouldn’t be my friends.”
Peep her video confession here:
Whew! Toni gave it to her family straight up, with no chaser, did she not?
Needless to say, her confession caught all of her family off guard, as they looked on in shock and the camera cut to Tamar giving her big sis’ the side eye. Guess they have a lot of things to discuss moving forward…to say the least.
In addition to Toni B. telling it like it is, Tamar and Tracy made it known how they felt as well.
As we previously reported, Tamar was NOT feeling how Iyanla was making her look at herself and she ultimately ended up storming out of one of their family therapy sessions. She was also seen telling Towanda that she was concerned the therapy sessions would turn into a “bash on Tamar” meeting:
“I don’t want to get in the middle of no drama,” Tamar later said in her confessional. “I don’t necessarily feel like I need to get my life fixed. I’ve been fixed and healed and redeemed. I’ve got peace and serenity… That said, call me P and S. OK? Can’t get me off my cloud. No, God!”
Following the show’s taping, Tamar then bashed Iyanla on “The Wendy Williams Show.” As a result, Iyanla has reportedly now threatened to sue her for defamation.
As far as Tracy Braxton, her take on the therapy process was far more receptive than Tamar’s. In an interview with “Entertainment Tonight,” Traci referred to the intense sessions with Iyanla, as “strenuous.” However, she’s grateful she went through the process.
“She didn’t fix my life, but she helped me see better and keep my process going positively,” said Traci.
The Braxtons seem to truly love each other to the core…but sometimes family can cut you deeper than strangers ever could. There are several issues that they’ve admitted needing help to resolve. But we, here at ILOSM, simply respect them all for having the courage to hash out their problems in front of the world, because by doing so, they’re helping SO many others.
