Tamar Braxton hospitalized with flu: ‘I couldn’t breathe’

Tamar Braxton shares news about her recent hospitalization for a severe case of the flu. In an Instagram post, Braxton revealed that she was taken to the hospital by ambulance because she couldn’t breathe. Braxton said it was surprising because the day after spending time with friends and doing Christmas shopping, she became seriously ill.

In her post, the singer/actress shared photos of herself before she got sick, along with photos of herself in the hospital. She also said she had no idea how she contracted the virus.

She has since been released from hospital and is recovering at home, but says she is in “complete isolation” and is urging her fans to stay safe.

Braxton starred and was executive producer Braxton Family Values on WE TV. She was last seen in a major recurring role on BET+s kingdom affairs.
