Tamar Braxton‘s boyfriend David Adefoso has filed a restraining order against the singer and reality TV star, but she is alleging he was the aggressor.
She claims that he assaulted her and threatened to kill her in a “murder-suicide,” via The Blast on Tuesday (September 8).

“According to sources close to Braxton, the ex-couple got into a heated altercation while driving to check the reality star into a mental health facility for treatment. We’re told on the way, Tamar questioned Adefesco about a recent about an Instagram he shared featuring her 7-year-old son, Logan Herbert. At that point, the couple apparently began arguing and Tamar told David he was ‘around for the wrong reasons and could not be trusted,’” the outlet reported.
Tamar says that David became “irate, threatening not only her life but his own,” adding that they’d end up in a “murder-suicide.” Sources close to Tamar said the argument turned violent at that point and he “grabbed her hard” on the arms and caused bruising. There are allegedly photos showing injuries during the incident.
David filed a domestic violence restraining order in Los Angeles County Court asking a judge to order Tamar to stay away from him, although his allegations have not been revealed.
“Any claims that Ms. Braxton was the aggressor and/or abusive are completely false and have no merit. David Adefeso has been upset and abusive since seeing his own true colors on Tamar’s upcoming television show and has been taking it out on Tamar ever since,” sources told The Blast.
David Adefeso‘s lawyer has not yet responded to the outlet’s request for comment.
Last month, Tamar credited her boyfriend with saving her life after discovering her in their home “lifeless.”
