The Braxtons: release date, trailer and everything we know about the triumphant return of the Braxton sisters
After being away from TV for nearly four years, Grammy-winning Toni Braxton is back with her family in the new series.
It’s with great excitement that we announce the return of the famous singing family the Braxtons in a new series aptly titled, The Braxtons.
December 2020 was the last time fans got to see seven-time Grammy-winning artist Toni Braxton and her sisters front and center on TV in the since-wrapped Braxton Family Values. For seven seasons, the series followed the ups and downs of the Braxton women as they dealt with marital blows, relationship woes, career shifts and of course, the natural conflicts that can arise among sisters. Sadly, in the new reality series, Traci Braxton won’t be featured as she passed away in 2022, but looking at the trailer, her presence will very much still be felt.
Here’s everything we know about The Braxons.
The Braxtons release date
The Braxtons premieres on Friday, August 9, at 9:30 pm ET/PT on WE TV. The series becomes available to stream on ALLBLK. Here is a sneak peek of the season premiere episode.
