Nicole Murphy, the former reality star, has broken her silence on social media following the passing of her boyfriend, Warren Braithwaite, who lost his battle with cancer earlier this month.
While friends of Braithwaite had offered condolences online shortly after his passing on March 4, Murphy had remained quiet until now.
Taking to her Instagram Story on Sunday, March 10, Murphy shared a heartfelt tribute to her late partner, expressing her profound grief and longing for him.
Accompanied by a fresh-faced selfie and the poignant song “Kiss of Life” by Sade, Murphy wrote:
“I miss you so much my love. May you rest in peace my sweet. It’s so hard not hearing your voice or seeing your face. You were my world & my everything.”
In a further homage, she added Beyoncé’s song “Heaven,” with the chorus playing in the background: “But heaven couldn’t wait for you/ No, heaven couldn’t wait for you.” The touching tribute was captured by The Shade Room, garnering sympathy and support from her fans.
Many fans expressed condolences and reflected on the couple’s relationship, noting their apparent deep connection and recent happiness together. Murphy and Braithwaite had begun sharing their relationship publicly last year, with Murphy introducing him to her ex-husband, Eddie Murphy, and their children.
The couple’s love was evident in Murphy’s social media posts, where they were seen attending events and sharing intimate moments together.
Their last public appearance was during the 2024 Super Bowl weekend in Las Vegas, where they were photographed enjoying a music day party alongside other celebrities.
As news of Braithwaite’s passing spread, Murphy’s heartfelt tribute serves as a reminder of the depth of their relationship and the profound loss she now faces.
