Bad news, Tamartians! Tamar Braxton quit ‘Dancing With The Stars.’

Citing health problems, Tamar sent a message to fans that she is not only leaving the show, but she also won’t be going on tour with Kem anymore.

‘The Real’ host unfortunately has blood clots in both of her lungs.

She posted an Instagram picture with a caption that read:

‘With a heavy heart, I regret to inform you that my season of #dwts has 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 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)…..’

Her dancing partner Valentin Chmerkovskiy also shared a loving post about his friend:

This announcement comes right on the heels of Kim Zolciak’s elimination from DWTS after she suffered a mini-stroke.

We hate to see a good woman down, but we hope she recovers quickly. Stay strong, Tamar!

Khloe Kardashian Almost Went To Rehab

Khloe Kardashian almost went into rehab after the death of her famous lawyer father Robert Kardashian.

The reality TV star reveals in her book, Strong Looks Better Naked, that the loss of her father hit her so hard, she drowned herself in alcohol to numb the pain.

‘At the funeral, though, when I saw my father in his casket, I completely fell apart. I don’t remember the details, but apparently I was an emotional wreck, and I’m told that I was so distraught I actually passed out.’

Khloe credits big sis Kourtney for pulling her back into the light.

‘I didn’t end up in rehab or anything because Kourtney put her foot down and forced me to take control of my life, but I probably came close,’ Kardashian said.

No matter how wealthy and famous you are, the sting of death hits hard for everyone. We can only imagine how Lamar Odom’s near death experience brought her back to the brink of that dark place.

In related news, Kardashian gave Extra an update on her estranged husband’s health:

‘He is alive on his own, and no machines are helping him, which is great, but he still has a lot of physical and cognitive therapy to go through, so it’s a long road for him,’ she explained.

In today’s edition of Tales From The Cell, Apollo Nida claims he will be out of prison soon.

At least that’s what he thinks.

Nida was hit with an 8 year prison sentence after being convicted of identity theft and fraud.

In an exclusive with Radar Online, Apollo hints that freedom is not too far away.

Apollo cryptically penned:

‘Thanks for the love and support. I’ll hold all your contact info and reach out to you upon my release – which won’t be long. Much respect.’

Uh oh.

If he is out soon, we worry about what this means for Phaedra Parks, who is currently raising their two boys alone.
