Tamar Braxton has been rushed to a Los Angeles hospital after the reality star's boyfriend found her "unresponsive" in her hotel room on Thursday, a report said.
Braxton was reportedly staying at the Ritz Carlton Residences in downtown Los Angeles with boyfriend David Adefeso, The Blast reported. Sources told the outlet that Adefeso immediately called 911 after finding Braxton unresponsive on Thursday night, telling authorities that she had been drinking and had ingested an unknown amount of prescription pills.
Adefoso reportedly also told sources that he believes his girlfriend may have attempted to take her own life.
The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to The Blast that they had received a call on Thursday night regarding a 43-year-old female with a medical emergency listed as a "possible overdose."
According to the outlet, the latest update from sources is that Braxton is in "stable condition" but remains "unconscious." The "Braxton Family Values" star has reportedly been put under 24-hour watch at the hospital.
A spokesperson for the reality star told The Blast that Braxton had an emotional day.
“Tamar has had a very tough and emotional day — more information will be coming in the next few days. Please pray for her,” the rep said.
Braxton was reportedly emotional due to an ongoing contract dispute with We TV, the network where her reality shows "Braxton Family Values" and "Tamar & Vince" used to air, insiders told The Blast.
On Thursday, WE TV dropped a teaser for "Tamar Braxton: Get Ya Life!" that shows the singer navigating motherhood and a new relationship as she attempts to relaunch her music career. It is believed that Braxton hated the way the show portrayed her.
Each week, Braxton and her boyfriend star in a YouTube show called "Coupled & Quarantined." The show was scheduled to air on Thursday night.
However, instead of the couple, a message was displayed, saying: "Hello Ya’ll Unfortunately, Your girl Tamar is under the weather today and not feeling well so we need to postpone today’s show (Don’t worry it’s not Covid)."
"We’re sad because we had a great show lined up for you today, but next week’s show is going to be even bigger and better," the note continued. "So sorry for the inconvenience, we know many of you look forward to the show every week. we’ll make it up to you next week."
Braxton and Adefeso made their relationship public in April 2019. She said at the time that marriage was not off the table for them. The reality star also told People that her family approves of her new boyfriend.
She was earlier married to Vince Herbert and has a 7-year-old son, Logan Vincent Herbert, with him.
On the work front, Braxton is set to appear on the VH1 series “To Catch A Beautician.”
