Toni Braxton has split from her husband Keri Lewis after eight years of marriage.

The Un-break My Heart hit maker has two sons with her spouse, and she revealed in an exclusive interview with The Voice that she’s not entirely sure why the marriage broke down.

“I’m newly separated – no-one really knows what went wrong,” Braxton said. “My husband and I are still cool – we get along great. But that could become challenging. If things go further, you may read about some things… things will have to be split and all of that.”

However, the US songstress is hopeful that the split won’t become a messy battle that’s played out in the public eye.

“Oh, it’ll nothing like that,” she said. “We were friends for years before we started dating and we’ve been married for almost nine years. I’m a little sad about it and I can’t see anything down the line because it’s all so new. We’re sorting different things right now.”

Braxton has been hit by a string of personal dramas in recent times. In 2008, she was diagnosed with the heart condition, microvascular angina, which forced her to scrap a series of concerts in Las Vegas. She has since been facing financial difficulties and is currently embroiled in a legal battle with her insurance company, as the firm has refused to pay out on the axed shows. But Braxton is confident that she won’t be left short.

“Be it the underwriter of the insurance company, someone is going to pay me,” she insists. “I spent thousands of dollars on insurance and somebody needs to pay me my money!”

Apparently, Toni Braxton does have a broken heart according to… Toni Braxton. But her insurance company doesn’t see the need to reimburse her for that!

Lloyd’s of London is actually looking for damages from Toni after she cancelled her Vegas show back in 2006 because of a heart ailment. The problem is not so much that she cancelled, but rather this information of a “pericarditis condition” was never disclosed on the insurance application. She conveniently left that part out! And then she had the audacity to sue the company for not cutting her a piece of the action after she cancelled.

Somehow, we think L & L has a better case in their countersuit. But we wonder – does she really have a broken ticker or did she bow out of the gig simply because she didn’t want to sing Unbreak My Heart for the millionth time?

It sure would have been one devious diva move!
