Tamar Braxton Stepping Down From 'DWTS' After Health Emergency

Tamar Braxton has just announced that she is stepping down from Dancing with the Stars after suffering a major health scare.

The 38-year-old entertainer posted the sad news to her Instagram account.

“With a Heavy heart I regret to inform you that my season of #dwts has to come to an end along with the rest of my tour dates with @musicbykem. After yesterday’s final #dwts performance I went back to the hospital (after the doctors didn’t want me to leave in the first place) only to find out that I don’t have pneumonia but something way more serious and that is having several P.E.’s (blood clots in both sides of my lungs),” Tamar wrote on her Instagram account, along with a photo of her in the hospital with her dance partner Val Chmerkovskiy.

“As you all know I will be the first to always encourage anyone to push through any obstacle that comes along one’s way. But in this case, my health is my current obstacle. .. And in TRUE #tamartian form I must go about this the exact same way as I would anything else. I woke up to a mirror and saw myself this morning and that makes me the winner because that almost wasn’t the case. ????Take care of yourselves… I love you and thank you ALL for your support?? p.s. Big hugs and kisses to my boo @iamvalc for being beyond a friend, brother and the BEST partner EVER????????????????????”

We are sending thoughts to Tamar during this time and wish her a speedy recovery!
