Tamar Braxton‘s fiancé David Adefeso isn’t here for the K. Michelle beef, and he addressed the situation head-on in a video, reminding everyone that now is not the time for division and petty squabbles within the Black community.

During a recent interview with entertainer Ts Madison, Tamar was asked whether she’d participate in a Verzuz battle against K. Michelle, to which the “To Catch a Beautician” co-host responded by simply ringing a bell and holding her drink up to the camera, implying that she’d rather not.

K. Michelle took offense to Tamar’s reaction and hit back by calling Tamar a “muppet” and a “cartoon character,” and accused her of sleeping with hip-hop legend Jermaine Dupri’s father and being beaten up by Dupri’s mother as a result.

Adefeso, who ostensibly runs a financial services firm, wasted no time diving into the recent drama and defending his lady on a new segment of his and Tamar’s “Quarantined & Coupled” YouTube series starting at 10:44.

What I saw this morning made me sad because I saw one strong Black woman, strong good-looking Black woman, tear another strong good-looking Black woman down, and it broke my heart.”
