The 'If I Don't Have You' star is stepping down from her post as co-host of the talk show, leaving behind the show's current hosts Tamera Mowry, Jeannie Mai, Adrienne Bailon and Loni Love.

A statement released jointly by the show's network and Tamar herself said: "The Real and Tamar Braxton have mutually decided that Tamar will not be continuing with the show for its upcoming third season.

"She will be leaving in order to concentrate on her solo career. Everyone associated with The Real appreciates Tamar's efforts and the contributions she has made to the show's success, and we wish her all the best for the future."

The news comes only hours after the 39-year-old beauty claimed she had "been stabbed in the back by someone I stupidly trusted".

She wrote on Instagram: "I love u all but I have been stabbed in the back by someone I stupidly trusted (not my man or my sisters) I am not about to be tried and tested to snitch and it's not in good taste to tell you who.

"But as #tamartians you are very smart and can figure things out on your own. But know that every one who smiles in your face is NOT your friend and is NOT cheering for you and will LIE and try and tear u down to TRY and dim your light. Thank GOD HE HOLDS MY FUTURE AND MY HAND! (sic)"

Tamar, who rose to fame as part of music group The Braxtons with her siblings Toni, Traci, Towanda and Trina, had co-hosted 'The Real' since it hit screens in 2013.
