Singer Tamar Braxton says she is ready to date again after staying celibate for a while. Her latest decision goes contrary to a previous affirmation that she would not date until her son, Logan, turned 18.
In a recent interview, the 48-year-old admitted that her previous statement about staying single was “a little exaggerated.” Braxton, who shares her son with ex-husband Vincent Herbert, said she has been single for a year.

Apart from wanting to date again, Ms Braxton has started her new show Cooking Sessions with Tamar & Ms. E, which premiered March 25.
