*Season 6 of WETV’s Braxton Family Values has been tumultuous. The tension in the family was so serious that they all attended a therapy session mediated by Iyanla Vanzant. The three-day session resulted in a lot of secrets and hidden feelings being revealed.
Towanda Braxton spoke exclusively with EURweb’s Jill Munroe about that therapy session, her guest starring role on Bounce TV’s “Family Time“ (airing tonight at 9/8c) and why church people need sex toys.
Towanda – who confessed in the episode that she wasn’t honest with her sisters and sometimes feels judged – said the session caused her to think more about boundaries. Both personally and from her family’s individual perspectives. As family, there are areas and feelings that we have to be aware of and respect them.”
Overall she said she learned a lot from the experience although painful in moments.
The experience wasn’t positive for all of the sisters, though. Tamar called Iyanla “the devil” after taping the episode in a since-deleted tweet. Trina said she deliberately separated herself from the family and made judgements about them.

Traci confessed that she can be selfish at times but that she feels pain and hurt with her family.
Tamar admitted she can be spoiled, obnoxious, unkind and unfair. While Toni dropped the bombshell that there are times that she didn’t like her family.
Despite all that drama, Towanda said she’s not done with reality TV and Braxton Family Values. She believes that being on the show helps others. She shared that friends and strangers alike reach out to her to share how the show helped them in their lives. “I’ve received texts from friends after that episode telling me how they were balling and could relate. I’ve also gotten DMs from fans saying watching our relationship helps them work through their own family dynamics.”
When it comes to acting, Towanda says she’s taking it serious and hopes to do more. She has two movies coming out this year, plus a guest appearance on Family Time that airs tonight, October 29 at 9/8c.
