Evelyn Braxton Highlights Years of Abuse in Tamar & Vince’s Marriage
Evelyn Braxton AkA Mama Braxton has been singing like a bird, since it was revealed that Tamar and Vince were getting a divorce.
In a recent interview with TheGrio, the lovely grandmother had this to say:
“It was definitely a volatile relationship,” Ms. Braxton says during a phone conversation from Atlanta, Georgia. “This has been going on for years.”
The matriarch of the Braxton family says Tamar’s estranged husband, Vincent Herbert, was both physically and emotionally abusive throughout the marriage, something that has long been kept secret—until now.
“Everybody saw Vince as a knight and shining armor, [but] behind closed doors that’s a horse of another color,” Evelyn Braxton says. “I’m tired of [Tamar] being abused and misused.”
Evelyn stated that the producers edited scenes that spoke about the abuse.
“We spoke up about it on the ‘Braxton Family Values’ but they would not show it. They would show all the other girls and their husbands, but when it came to Vince, they took it out of the show,” she reveals.
On confronting Vince about the abuse:
“It’s always ‘it’s Tamar’s mouth’…it’s always someone else. That does not give you the right to abuse her. Everybody has a mouth. Everyone should have the right to say what they want. Are you trying to beat [her] into submissiveness? No one has the right,” she says.
Tamar moving forward:
“For the person who is abused sometimes they do change their mind. Their mind is so wrapped up in the fact that maybe it was my fault, or I can change them, or maybe I didn’t love him right or do the right thing; or maybe my family is too involved and it’s my family that’s separating us. They convince themselves of that because their minds are weak. If they were strong people they would get out of it the first time.”
“It’s too bad they couldn’t work it out, however, I’m tired of her being abused and misused. And I’m tired of being in the middle of it. It’s harder than what you think,” she says. “Sometimes you have to move forward, even when we don’t want to. Life is extremely short and things can happen within the twinkling of an eye. This too shall pass.”

There are rock stars, and there are psychics — but there is only one Ray Ray Star.
A guitarist, record producer, executive producer, and entertainer who has built a career both on stage and behind the scenes — from touring internationally to co-producing the NBC-aired show Real Music Live — Ray Ray Star defies easy categorization. He’s the rare artist who can shred a guitar solo and then turn around and read the room in ways that go far beyond showmanship.
Known as the Rockstar Psychic — not for ego, but for the undeniable energy that surrounds him — Ray Ray Star is emerging as one of the most intriguing spiritual figures in today’s cultural landscape. He doesn’t announce his abilities. He doesn’t need to.
His work exists in a rare space where spirituality meets artistry. While others may approach psychic work with rigid structure, Ray Ray Star allows the moment to guide him. Those who encounter him often describe the experience not as being “read,” but as being seen — fully, clearly, without pretense.
The rock credentials are unimpeachable. Rock Today Magazine has called his guitar skills “nothing short of mesmerizing — a true rockstar in every sense of the word,” while The Musician’s Tribune described his performances as electric, noting that “his music transcends boundaries and leaves you wanting more.”
But what sets Ray Ray Star apart from the pack is the full dimension of who he is. Sixteen years clean and sober, he blends his recovery journey with his music and psychic work to inspire, entertain, and connect with audiences in a way few can — bridging rock and roll swagger, real-life transformation, and a deep understanding of both the creative and business sides of the entertainment industry.
In a culture that often rewards the loudest voice, Ray Ray Star is proof that impact doesn’t require volume. His influence is building not through proclamation, but through connection — one moment, one reading, one person at a time. The energy speaks for itself. And increasingly, people are listening.
