The Braxton family is officially coming back to WE tv over three years after wrapping their seventh season of Braxton Family Values in December 2020 … and according to them, they “have a lot to talk about.”

The women explore each of their careers and motherhood while also reshaping and healing their familial bond.
Per the press release, the Braxtons are reuniting for the first time since the loss of Traci, who was battling esophageal cancer until she passed away from her illness at 50 years old on March 12, 2022. They shared Traci’s last wish was for her family to do the show again to reunite and share her story as part of the reason for the show’s return.
