Tamar Braxton Denied The Allegations Of An Affair : Recently, rumors of an alleged romance between R&B singer and reality TV star Tamar Braxton and Birdman (Brian “Birdman” Williams) took the Internet by storm. The matter heated up when Tamar’s sister, Towanda Braxton, hinted on an episode of the family reality show ‘The Braxtons‘ that Tamar had also had affairs with Toni’s former lovers. Fans and media began to link these gestures directly to Birdman, now husband of Toni Braxton. However, Tamar has strongly denied all these speculations in a candid interview on Sherri Shepherd’s show and has revealed the truth about the family relationship.
Root Of Controversy : That Controversial Episode Of ‘The Braxtons’ Show
The whole controversy started with a tense episode of ‘The Braxtons’ that aired in late October. The episode featured an argument between the sisters over financial issues, where Towanda accused Tamar Braxton of embezzling her money for years. During the same heated debate, Towanda also pointed out that Tamar has had relationships with Toni’s male friends in the past. Although Towanda did not directly mention any names, fans and media immediately compared it to the scene where Tamer wiped the sweat from Birdman’s head during the Cash Money vs. No Limit Versus Battle in October. This simple collaborative gesture turned into a romantic gesture in the eyes of fans, further fueling the rumors.
Tamer’s Explanation : “Birdman is my brother, I Introduced Him to Tony.”
On Sherri Shepherd’s show on December 16, Tamar Braxton spoke about the issue in a direct and candid way. Not only did she call the rumors false, but she also went into detail about her relationship history with Birdman.
Were friends first, became brother-sister : Tamar Braxton explained, “Brian (Birdman) and I were friends first. Real, platonic friends. Actually, he was dating a friend of mine a long time ago. When they broke up, Brian and I became really good friends because he and his brother Slim Williams wanted to sign me with Cash Money Records.”
The link that introduced her to Tony : According to Tamer, Birdman started asking out Toni when she was still married to her then-husband Kerry Lewis. “I said, you know my sister is married, please go and sit down,” Tamer said. But when Tony got divorced in 2013, Birdman started seriously liking Tony and came into his life.
‘Brother’ status : Defining their current relationship, Tamar insisted, “He’s my brother-in-law now. He’s my brother – like my blood. I tell you how close we are. Me, Tony and Brian are on three-way calls all day long.”
Viral Moment of Versus : Wiping Sweat Was Not Romance, It Was Support
On the viral scene of Birdman wiping off his sweat during a Versus event, Tamar Braxton said it was merely a friendly and supportive gesture. He explained that his sister Toni was not present at the event at the time, so he supported Birdman on her behalf.
“When I was wiping the sweat off his head, the first thing he saw was water,” Tamer said, laughing. “I was just saying, ‘Wipe me off!’ I was completely immersed in that moment.”
Family Discord And The Path to Reconciliation
Towanda’s allegations not only raised questions about the relationship between Tamar Braxton and Birdman, but also created tension within the entire Braxton family. Tamar admitted that it was embarrassing to watch their fights depicted on the show, especially for her mother, Evelyn Braxton, who has instilled good values in her.
However, now the situation is improving. Tamar Braxton said her mother intervened and inspired all the sisters to apologize to each other and strengthen their bond.
“We’re in a better place now,” Tamer said. “I think everyone is taking responsibility for their role in what happened, both publicly and privately. Now, it’s time for recovery and unity. If recovery means we don’t talk every day, or even occasionally, and when we do, it’s pleasant and cool, then that’s good enough for me.”
Where Did This Rumor Come From? The Pain Behind Towanda’s Allegations
Tamer also revealed that Towanda‘s allegations were particularly painful to her because they were not only false, but they were rooted in misinformation from a man who had been “unfair” to Tamer in the past. Tamer insisted that she would never betray her sisters.
Conclusion : The Importance Of Family Bonds, Rising Above Rumors

Tamar’s explanation not only debunks a specific rumor, but also sheds light on the dynamic within the Braxton family. This incident reminds us that even behind the scenes of celebrity life, there are normal family ups and downs, misunderstandings and attempts at reconciliation. Ultimately, the story revolves around the enduring power of family, faith, and forgiveness.
