Tamar Braxton is asking fans for prayers after a terrifying incident occurred on Sunday. The 48-year-old singer took to her Instagram story on Tuesday to share details about multiple injuries she sustained. To add an extra layer of horror, she has no idea what happened to her.
Braxton shared a screenshot of text. "I struggled to write this, but everyone keeps calling me, and honestly, I can’t even really talk anymore. I’m so weak," she began. “I almost died Sunday."
According to Braxton, she was "found in a pool of blood" by her friend with a face injury. "As the days go by, the worse it is. I fractured my nose, lost some teeth, and mobility," Braxton continued.
As expected after a life-changing event, she said, "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. I don't even know what happened to me."
Braxton has not shared any more details, and it's unclear if she fell or was possibly a victim of a crime.
