Tamar Braxton Opens Up About Health Scare

Tamar publicly revealed in August 2025 that she “almost died” after a mysterious accident. She wrote on her Instagram Stories that on Sunday she was found “in a pool of blood.” According to her, she suffered serious injuries: she fractured her nose, lost some teeth, and lost mobility.

She admitted she had no memory of what happened — she does not know how she got injured. Ahead of sharing the details she had posted a grateful message: “Thank you God for waking me up today.” This incident echoes a prior serious moment in her life. In 2020 she was hospitalized after being found unconscious by her then-partner, which was later revealed to be related to a suicide attempt. Over the years she has been candid about mental health issues and a “toxic lifestyle,” detailing how that time represented one of her lowest points. After that, she began therapy and raised her focus on healing — implications that her recent accident may come at a sensitive time for her mental and physical health. Tamar said the experience has changed how she looks at life: “The way I look at life now is totally different.” As she begins physical recovery, she said her “mental journey begins. She asked for prayers and support, and also expressed gratitude at being alive. As of now, Braxton has not publicly confirmed, definitive explanation for why or how she got injured. The leading theory, per her dentist, is a possible sleepwalking accident — but that remains speculative, not confirmed as fact.
