A representative for the Braxton family confirmed his passing to TMZ. “It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Von Scales,” the representative said.
The family representative described Scales as Trina’s “beloved husband.” The family also asked supporters to respect their privacy during this difficult period. “The family appreciates your thoughts and prayers but is asking for privacy,” the representative added.
Sources close to the family said Scales died around 2 a.m. Thursday in Atlanta. He had reportedly been battling heart-related problems. His cause of death remains unknown, according to the report.
Scales was 58 when he died. Trina married him in 2019 after their relationship became part of her public life. Their wedding was featured on the family’s reality series, Braxton Family Values.
The couple’s marriage came one year after Trina’s former husband died. Gabriel Solis died in 2018, according to the TMZ report. Trina later found love with Scales before their 2019 wedding.
Scales became connected to the Braxton family through his marriage to Trina. Their wedding received attention through the family’s reality television series. The relationship also marked another important chapter in Trina’s personal life.
The family’s statement emphasized their need for space while processing the loss. They thanked supporters for their thoughts and prayers during the difficult time. The family has not publicly shared additional details about his death.
Scales remained Trina’s husband from their 2019 marriage until his death. His passing comes more than six years after the couple married in St. Louis.
Von Scales’ death marks a difficult loss for Trina and her family. His family has asked the public to respect their privacy, and further details about his death have not yet been disclosed.
