Financial Problems/Calabasas Mansion Ordeal

In 2013, Braxton and Herbert purchased a Calabasas mansion for $10.5 million. By 2017, they listed the property for $15 million, but it struggled to sell. The home faced multiple liens and was in pre-foreclosure by early 2018. Liens totaling over $244,000 were filed against the property, including judgments from Townsgate Capital Corporation, University Limousine, and City National Bank. Additionally, Braxton faced a lien of over $213,000 from a former nanny for unpaid wages.

Today, Tamar and her boyfriend reportedly rent a two-bedroom luxury condo in Beverly Hills that costs $15,000 per month. The building features an indoor and outdoor pool, five gyms, a spa, a restaurant, and a bar offering complimentary drinks.

Early Life

Tamar Estine Braxton was born in Severn, Maryland, on March 17, 1977. She is the youngest of Michael and Evelyn Braxton's six children. She is from a musical family, and eventually, the Braxton children sang in the church choir for the church where their father was a pastor. Toni, Traci, Towanda, Trina, and Tamar Braxton signed their first record deal with Arista Records in 1989. In 1990, they released their first single, "Good Life."  At the time of the single's release, the members' age differences created a problem with marketing. Tamar, the youngest, is ten years younger than Toni, the oldest. Arista Records dropped The Braxtons from the label.

In 1991, a producer heard Toni Braxton singing at a gas station, and he introduced the sisters to super producers and star-makers L.A. Reid and "Babyface" Edmonds. The two producers were in the process of setting up their own record label, LaFace Records. Though the group was not signed, Toni was, and her sisters were hired as backup singers. Tamar and the other sisters released one album in 1996. Then Tamar embarked on a solo career and released her first solo album in the fall of 2000. The album was not successful, and her label, Dreamworks, dropped her. She continued to sing backup on her sister's albums and to perform with her live. In 2010, she signed with Universal Records and also began appearing on the television show, "Tiny and Toya."

Tamar appeared with her family on the reality show "Braxton Family Values," starting in April 2011. Tamar and her second husband got their very own spinoff reality show called "Tamar & Vincent" on WE TV in 2012.
