50 Cent reacts to viral rumor claiming Toni Braxton demanded $160 million from Birdman during separation

50 Cent shared his reaction to allegations of Toni Braxton demanding $160 million from Birdman. These rumors spread after the couple filed for divorce just two days into their marriage last year.

Birdman, whose real name is Bryan Christopher Williams, reportedly got engaged to Toni Braxton in 2017. However, their wedding took place on August 8, 2024. As per TMZ, Braxton filed for divorce just two days later on August 10, 2024.

In January this year, the couple dismissed the divorce petition and are hence, legally still married. This, however, didn't stop rumors from spreading that Braxton demanded $160 million from Birdman while filing for a separation.

50 Cent shared a post on his Instagram account on Tuesday, July 29. He shared a video that showed Birdman and Braxton posing, with the headline:

"Dated for 16 years, married for 30 days, and she filed for divorce demanding $160 million."

The text on the video read:

"This is why plenty men in the Western world don't want to get married."

Sharing this post, 50 Cent wrote in the caption:

"SMH. WTF. Now watch women are gonna say, well if you sucked d*ck for 16 years. You would want to be paid for it to. LOL."

The rapper later deleted this post.

However, in 2019, rumors of their breakup surfaced, but neither responded to them. Another bout of speculations in December 2023 claimed that the couple had gotten married in Mexico. However, Braxton denied such fake news, writing on Instagram:

"My dear friend [Birdman] and I are not married...never been married. We are both single."
