In her public statement, the "All the Way Home" songstress, 43, revealed that she “wrote a letter over 2 months ago asking to be freed from what I believed was excessive and unfair.” Braxton said she detailed the “demise” she was experiencing at the time, however, her “cry for help went totally ignored.”
Now, on Friday – WeTV told Fox News they’re honoring Braxton’s wishes to move on from their 10-year partnership.

“Tamar Braxton has been an important part of our network family for more than a decade,” the network said. “As she focuses on her health and recovery at what is clearly a difficult and personal time, we will work with her representatives to honor her request to end all future work for the network. We wish her nothing but the best.”
The network had been home to the Grammy-nominated singer’s reality series “Braxton Family Values” for six seasons and Braxton also has another project on the horizon, titled “Get Ya Life!”

Braxton is said to still appear in a few episodes of “Braxton Family Values” during Season 7, which began production prior to Braxton’s “attempt to end my pain and my life,” according to Variety.
The show has been on air since 2011 and also stars Braxton's sisters Toni, Traci, Trina, and Towanda, as well as their mother Evelyn.
Braxton, along with her family – including R&B star Toni Braxton – has spent plenty of time in the public eye thanks to her endeavors in television, including the reality shows "Braxton Family Values" and "Celebrity Big Brother," while she also served as a co-host of "The Real" for three seasons.
