Toni Braxton Reflects on Marriage to Birdman in Rare TV Interview

Her TODAY comments frame their on‑off timeline through a decades‑long friendship plus steady support during her lupus.

Overview

  • In an Oct. 29 appearance on TODAY with Jenna & Friends, Braxton discussed her relationship and called Birdman her “dearest, dearest friend.”
  • Court documents show the couple quietly married on Aug. 8, 2024, after years of public ups and downs.
  • Braxton filed for divorce roughly two weeks later, listing Aug. 10, 2024, as their separation date, according to reports on the filing.
  • She dismissed the petition in January 2025 with Birdman’s agreement, leaving the marriage legally intact.
  • Braxton said their bond grew from more than 25 years of friendship and his steady support during her lupus, and she marked a first anniversary with an August 2025 Instagram post.
