She’s a talented opera singer and a certified life coach, best known for her role on the popular WE TV reality series Braxton Family Values. Her name often comes up when fans talk about the heart and soul behind the Braxton family’s story. Before she became a household name, she spent her early years growing up in Columbia, South Carolina. When she was just 13, she moved to Maryland—a move that would later shape much of her personal journey. It was in Maryland where she crossed paths with Michael, the man who would become her husband. Their bond grew strong, and they tied the knot when she was only 18. Over the years, she built a beautiful family, becoming the proud mother of six children: Toni Braxton, Tamar Braxton, Towanda Braxton, Traci Braxton, Trina Braxton, and Michael Conrad Braxton Jr. Her name continues to be synonymous with strength, love, and resilience—qualities that shine through both on screen and in real life.
After her daughters had grown up a bit, she decided to go back to school. She attended both Sojourner College and Bowie State University, continuing her education with a clear sense of purpose.
