On Instagram, some of Braxton’s fans responded to WE TV’s statement with criticism for the network. “It’s your fault,” one fan replied in the comment section, while another wrote, “She wants to end the contract she has with y’all…” “I’m still waiting for y’all to speak on the hell y’all was taking her through,” another fan replied. “Sometimes, it’s best to not comment WE TV,” another fan responded.
As we previously reported, earlier in July, Braxton was in stable condition but still unconscious, and was under 24-hour watch at the hospital after a possible suicide attempt, as The Blast reported. The “Love & War” singer was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital after she was found unresponsive by her boyfriend David Adefeso. She was staying at the Ritz Carlton Residences in Downtown Los Angeles, near LA Live, according to sources.
Adefeso found Braxton “unresponsive” and dialed 911 to report that the singer and reality tv star had been drinking and had taken an unknown amount of prescription pills. According to sources, he believed Braxton attempted suicide.
The ambulance arrived at the residency and took the “Let Me Know” singer to California hospital in Downtown L.A. Los Angeles Police Department confirmed that they had received a phone call around 9:45 P.M. in regard to a 43-year-old female who had a medical emergency listed as a “possible overdose.”
According to The Blast, Braxton has been extremely emotional due to an ongoing contract dispute with WE TV. Braxton has been attempting to get out of her contract, as she believes that she has been treated unfairly for years.
Earlier in July, the trailer for Get Ya Life was also released, and according to The Blast, Braxton felt blindsided by it and hated the way it portrayed her. Earlier in the week, the singer vented her frustrations about her “Braxton Family Values” contract on Twitter, as we previously reported.
