To try to correct his problems with We TV, he admits having sent an email to the network. In the email, Braxton destroys the network by broadcasting too much drama, paying the family less, and revealing his sexual abuse secret.

In a long Instagram post, Braxton explains his current issues with We TV.

“Over the past 11 years, promises have been made to protect and portray my story, with the authenticity and honesty that I provided. I was betrayed, taken advantage of, overworked and underpaid, ”she writes.

In the letter, Braxton says that she asks “to be released from what I believed was excessive and unfair.” She says her “cries for help” were ignored.

Tamar Braxton says that he is working to fight for other reality stars.

Braxton is not alone in her frustrations in feeling that reality television is exploitative and only shows a negative portrait of her stars. Nene Leakes is currently struggling RHOA executives, accusing Bravo of making her look like the villain of the show.

In Braxton’s Instagram post, he explains that reality stars are under-represented and not part of the unions. He promises to change the system by working to “establish the initiative that strives for ethical business practices.”

Braxton spin-off, Get your life, will be released on July 30. The network released a statement announcing that it is a delay until September amid Braxton’s hospitalization.

Reports allege that Braxton was surprised by the launch of the trailer for Get your life and became unhappy with the issue. The new season of Braxton Family Values will air this fall. It is unclear if plans for a premiere are still ongoing.
