Nationwide — Toni Braxton and Bryan “Birdman” Williams have been secretly married for months, but their union has already seen its fair share of turbulence. According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the 57-year-old R&B legend and the 56-year-old Cash Money Records mogul tied the knot on August 8, 2024. However, just two days later, Braxton filed for divorce, listing their separation date as August 10 and describing the marriage as “irretrievably broken.”
Their relationship has had many ups and downs over the years. The couple went public with their romance in 2016 and faced speculation about an elopement in 2017, which Braxton’s team denied. Birdman later proposed in 2018, and the engagement was featured on Braxton Family Values. Despite frequent breakup rumors, their bond persisted—albeit quietly.
By 2019, they confirmed their engagement was off, and Braxton publicly stated they were both single. She even slammed marriage rumors as “#FAKENEWS” in a December 2023 social media post. Still, the couple apparently continued to see each other off and on, eventually leading to their secret 2024 wedding.
Birdman has long spoken highly of Braxton, calling her “my love, my soldier, my life” in a past interview with Wendy Williams. Their emotional rollercoaster over the years seems to reflect a deeply complex and passionate connection.
Though they remain married, neither Braxton nor Birdman has commented publicly on their current relationship status. For now, fans are left to wonder whether this quiet union will endure or unravel once again.
