Heavy/Bravo A former DWTS competitor is engaged.
Former “Dancing With the Stars” competitor Tamar Braxton is engaged to JR Robinson. According to People magazine, Robinson proposed to Braxton on the finale of Peacock’s “Queen’s Court.”
“I prayed for somebody to understand me and not look at me and my flaws and just accept me for who I am. And then I met you. And then I saw every single that I ever prayed for as a child,” Braxton told Robinson on the finale.
“Queen’s Court” is a reality dating show featuring Tamar Braxton, Evelyn Lozada, and Nivea. The three women meet and date 21 “confident and successful prospective suitors” in hopes of finding love. For Braxton, the process worked.
“I thought that I just needed love. I didn’t. I needed a friend. And you’ve been that for me,” Braxton told Robinson on the show. This will be the third wedding for Braxton, who was previously married to Darrell “Delite” Allamby from 2001 through 2003, and to Vincent Herbert from 2008 through 2019.
Braxton is a mom of one son, Logan Vincent Herbert, who was born in 2013. According to People, Robinson has five children “with four different women.”

Evelyn Lozada Also Got Engaged to the Man She Met on ‘Queen’s Court’
Braxton wasn’t the only star of “Queen’s Court” to find love. Lozada, whose ex-husband Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson appeared on season 10 of “Dancing With the Stars,” also got engaged to someone she met on the show — Lavon Lewis.
The engagement took place in December on Lozada’s birthday, according to People magazine.
“The thing about Evelyn is, it is very hard to surprise her,” Lewis told People. “I told her to pack her bags, we’re going somewhere. She was blindfolded until she got to the front door. She walked in to about 20 close friends and family and the big ‘marry me’ letters, roses on the ground, things like that,” he added.
Although Lewis and Lozada aren’t exactly Instagram official just yet, Lewis called the show “one of the greatest experiences” of his life in an Instagram post that he shared on February 13, 2023 — two months after he and Lozada got engaged.
