A spokeswoman confirmed the hospitalization on Saturday but had no other details. However, Toni soon hit the tweets to notify fans that she’s fine and recovering at home.
Going home today! I have a nurse coming to the house for a couple days, maybe I can sneak out & see Diezel’s 1st play “A Mid Summers Dream”

Braxton, 45, revealed two years ago she has Lupus, a potentially deadly autoimmune disease.
She also suffers from a narrowing of the blood vessels in her heart.
The singer was hospitalized earlier this year for her condition after experiencing painful flare-ups related to her condition.
Braxton said in a recent “20/20” interview that doctors told her the Lupus diagnosis meant her performing career would likely be diminished and admits that the disease was a primary cause of her recent bankruptcy.
