Toni Braxton and Keri Lewis
R&B diva Toni Braxton reunited with old friend Keri Lewis when she was encountering a few woes in her professional and personal life. Back in the 90’s, Toni filed her first bankruptcy. It was Keri that encouraged her to push on and continue to fight during adversity. In her interview with Vh1, Braxton said, “Keri was my rock.” Their friendship flourished into a relationship, and Keri and Braxton married in 2001. They had two children, Denim and Diezel. At one point, Keri was Braxton’s manager and had more say in her career. But Braxton and Lewis went their separate ways and Braxton talked about her failed marriage on Vh1’s Behind the Music. “I had to figure out a plan for my life that had nothing to do with him,” she explained. “I was angry with everybody. I couldn’t believe this was happening to me. I felt that I was a person dealing with a lot of struggles and here comes another one.”
