The Braxton sister, Trina Braxton Engaged to Von Scales, Shows Off Her Engagement Ring At The Braxton Family Values Sixth Season Premiere:

At the debut of the sixth season of Braxton Family Values, Trina Braxton flaunted her new diamond engagement ring. On a family vacation to California wine country, the 44-year-old musician proposed to Von Scales. Tamar and Traci’s birthday trip took the entire Broxton family.

“We were in Napa Valley, you know, all the girls were around, we were filming and he just sorta, like, placed the box on the table and just, I lost it, absolutely, fully, and utterly,” she said at the premiere of her engagement.

The mother of two also discussed her ex-husband Gabe Solis’ death. “She remarked,” she said “We’re all getting older, and since since my ex-husband, Gabe, died, I’ve been reminded of how brief life is. You know, the foolishness is pointless, and there’s always time to make amends and resolve as long as we have breath in our bodies.” Her ex-husband passed away in December 2018 after a long battle with cancer. They divorced earlier this year.

The loss of Gabe and Trina’s grief process are set to be prominently addressed in the next Braxton Family Values series.
