In a significant development, Tina Knowles, fashion designer and mother of global icon Beyoncé, has taken a decisive step to conclude her second marriage with actor Richard Lawson. After an eight-year union, Tina has officially filed for divorce, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split. The date of separation has been stated as the preceding Tuesday.
Tina Knowles and Richard Lawson tied the knot in April 2015, embarking on a journey together. However, their relationship did not include having children of their own, as Tina’s two beloved daughters, Beyoncé and Solange, were from her first marriage with Mathew Knowles.
According to documents obtained by TMZ, Tina is seeking to terminate the court’s ability to grant spousal support to either her or Richard. This decision indicates an amicable approach to the dissolution of their marriage, as both parties seem to agree on the matter. Alongside this move, Tina has decided to revert her name back to Celestine Knowles, embracing her original identity.
As news of the divorce surfaces, representatives for Beyoncé, Tina, and Richard Lawson have not issued immediate comments on the matter.
