It seems that every last one of the Braxton sisters and also their mother, are fed up with their own reality show, “Braxton Family Values.” It’s not that they aren’t enjoying the success of the show, it’s more-so that they have a serious problem with what’s goin’ down behind the scenes.

Word on the Old School curb is that Trina, Tamar, Towanda, Traci, and Tamar Braxton, and Mama Evelyn are currently out of a gig, after the move they just pulled with WeTV, the network that airs their reality show.

According to what has been reported, all of the siblings were scheduled to tape upcoming episodes in Atlanta last week. However, the only Braxton sis’ who showed up was Traci. Seeing as how it’s pretty tough to film a Braxtons TV show with just one Braxton, the crew had to shut down production and go home.

The Braxtons are reportedly boycotting their show because they’re demanding that WeTV and Magical Elves production company cut far bigger checks to them. It’s being reported that the final straw for the ladies, was when their wardrobe and travel stipends for season 6, were far lower than average. They also reportedly want to be paid ‘appropriately’ for their worth.

WeTV has now canceled the show indefinitely, as a result of the Braxtons refusing to film the second half of season 6 until they’re paid more. The Braxtons are currently under contract through season 9 though, so this may possibly result in a legal issue soon, if nothing gets resolved.

Overall, this season of filming has been shrouded in controversy. In particular, much of the talk has been about the drama behind the scenes with Tamar Braxton vs. her siblings and mother, over her estranged husband, Vince Herbert.

In case y’all missed why Tamar was livid with her fam,’ here’s a quick breakdown of what went down between them in March 2018. As we previously reported, Tamar was reportedly pissed off with Mama Evelyn and her sisters because she thinks the ladies are trying to create “fake storylines,” by bashing Vince, during season 6 of the show. Tamar reportedly believes her family is plotting to gang up on Vince, in order to destroy him and portray him as ‘a villain.’ It’s also been reported, by sources close to the Braxtons, that Tamar is NOT happy her moms and sisters would “stoop so low for personal gain” a.k.a. television ratings. She also allegedly refused to promote the show, unless she has final approval of which scenes -as it pertains to Vince- make the final cut before they air on TV.

Trina, Towanda, and Traci Braxton are not ones to take Tamar’s claims lightly. That’s why they decided to speak out to tell their side of the story to TMZ. First, they wanted to give Tamar a wake up call- ‘HELLO!’…they’re all on a reality show, where they display real incidents that happen in their lives. The Braxtons are letting Tamar and the world know, that just because Vince is Tamar’s husband doesn’t make him off limits, when it comes to them giving their opinions about him on their show. The ladies also pointed out that when they were having problems and/or going through their own divorces, they not only shared that part of their story on the show, but Tamar had a LOT to say about it ON THE SHOW. Check out their video reaction below:

Tamar filed for divorce from Vince in 2017 and prior to that, there were several reports and/or allegations of cheating, domestic abuse, and side-baby rumors.

Overall, Towanda, Tracy, and Trina make a good point, especially given the fact that Tamar has not even kept much of her and Vince’s problems (with the exception of those domestic violence incidents) secret from the public. She and Vince discussed it on their own show, “Tamar & Vince,” and she’s also discussed it in interviews. So uh….yeah, Tamar’s marriage is fair game. None of that is relevant now though, because at this point, none of them will be discussing anything on “The Braxton Family Values”…until further.
