    Tamar Braxton claimed she "almost died" at the weekend

    The 48-year-old singer was "found in a pool of blood" and suffered a number of injuries following a terrifying accident, though she cannot remember the specific details of what happened to her


    She wrote on her Instagram Story on Tuesday (19.08.25): "I struggled to write this but everyone keeps calling me and honestly, I can't even really talk anymore I'm so weak.

    "I almost died Sunday. I was found in a pool of blood from my friend with a face injury.

    "As the days go by the worse it is. I fractured my nose, lost some teeth and mobility. [broken heart emojis] the way I look at life now is totally different. As my health is on the mend my mental journey begins... pray for me for real [broken heart emojis] I don't even know what happened to me [broken heart emojis] (sic)"

    The post was accompanied by Clavier's spng Spirit Lead Me.

    Tamar later reposted a page from the Bible showing Proverbs 31, a verse about strong women.

    And before she had revealed the news of her accident, Tamar had shared a short quote to her account.

    It simply stated: "Thank you God for waking me up today."

    The Braxtons star revealed earlier this year she is "not interested" in finding love again.

    The Heart In Me hitmaker - who was married to Darrell Allamby from 2001 to 2003 and record producer Vincent Herbert between 2008 and 2019 - told The Breakfast Club: "I'm still celibate. Not even a kiss, not a date.

    "I have friends, casual conversation, but I'm not interested. There's no one that I've been interested in."

    Tamar still craves some intimacy from time to time. But she's also taking a long-term approach to her love life.

    The singer - who has Logan, 11, with Vincent - shared: "Of course I [crave intimacy], but where does that lead to? If they're not like-minded and we're not on the same page ... I'm dating for intent, and nobody is dating for intent anymore. It's crazy."

    The Love and War hitmaker had previously explained she had put her love life on hold in order to "protect" her on.

    During an appearance on the Sherri show, Tamar explained: "Here's the thing: I didn't want to keep introducing Logan to the people that were in my life.

    "I just want to mentally protect him as much as I can. I don't want to give him any abandonment issues or anything like that."
