Tamar Braxton is reportedly recovering in the hospital after being found unresponsive.
According to The Blast, who was first to report the news, the 43-year-old singer was staying at the Ritz-Carlton Residences in downtown Los Angeles with her boyfriend David Adefeso.
Sources tell the outlet that he discovered Braxton unresponsive and called 911 to report that she had been drinking and taken an unknown amount of prescription pills. The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to The Blast that they received a call for a medical emergency related to a possible overdose around 9:45 p.m. on Thursday, July 16.
A spokesperson for Braxton also told the outlet, “Tamar has had a very tough and emotional day — more information will be coming in the next few days. Please pray for her.” Access Hollywood has reached out to her team for comment.
The singer had reportedly been stressed about an ongoing contract dispute with We TV over her reality show, “Braxton Family Values.”
