Tina Knowles to Mathew Knowles: “To the Left, to the Left”

mathew and tina

Not that we’re surprised – who has seen these two together in the past few years? Looks like Tina’s back on the single girl scene even though we doubt she’ll be gettin’ her cougar on

Hi Soulgirl
My mother is a friend of Tina Knowles. They often go to the same nail/hair salon together and catch up whenever Tina is in town. Tina told my mother that her and Mathew have been seperated for at least a year now and are living in different homes even though they have kept their main house.
Tina spends all her time running around after Beyonce and Solange and focusing on the clothing line which has kept her busy through the seperation. You won’t see them getting divorced anytime soon and they also remain dedicated to supporting both of their daughters. Mathew’s narrowmindness and lies have seen Tina turn her back on him and his dealings. She will always love Mathew but she can no longer live in his controlling ways.

Mathew’s a straight dictator. That’s why Bey hasn’t popped out any kids for Hov and why he’s tryin’ to bar LeToya from performing at the BET awards.

    1st?

    IMO, they are way too private and prideful to go through a public divorce. They will probably stay together for duration. After all, it’s business, not personal, when you share a child who is the main source of income for the family…

    they’re keeping up pretenses for the public. but this is kinda old news.

  • bianca

    Ummm I dont think Beyonce listens to Matthew. She does what she wants to do. She is a grown as woman.

  • Star

    The Knowles family is weird. All they care about is image and trying to be perfect.

  • Jade Silver (the truth shall set you free)

    Oh well, atleast their kids are grown. I hope they work things out. Separation/divorce is not a nice thing.

  • Plastic007

    I DONT BELIEVE U , U NEED MORE PEOPLES POINT BLANK

  • JUDY

    Oh well…..the best of luck to Tina.

    They ain’t split up- NO WAY! Viagra is doing it. These old azz men getting carried away!

  • john hope franklin

    tina probably got that fall in…

  • Mhhh Huhhh….

    well, it doesnt matter, they will go on as partners, and isnt that what all long term marriage turn into? more of a partnership, based on respect, understanding compromise than being lovers and such? nothing to see here…

  • brooklyn kid

    he’s the devil incarnate.

  • breeee.

    whatever is goin on between them has been brewing for a while. beyonce mentioned something about her mother bein “run over” in one of her songs.

  • Aunt Viv

    This doesn’t surprise me unfortunately. Marriage and celebrity don’t seem to mix well :(

  • john hope franklin

    fall in i say!!!

  • peewee

    If it wasn’t for Matthew jump startin Beyonce’s career…they’d still be in Houston with Solange & Daniel living with them…Beyonce seem like a hard worker so she would still probably be good. REAL TALK.

  • missunderstood

    @chaka1 – ugh! The dreaded middle age crisis! All men go through some form of it when they realize they are no longer spring chickens… we (ladies) just go through menopause and become SUPER BYTCH! lol….

  • HANNIBALS PIMP AKA MR.BACKHAND

    Well Tina need to come to me and get that old licked,lapped and scrapped.

  • http://bossip.com too cute

    not sure if this story is true,but you never see them together anymore,believe they are on their way to a divorce,they are just private about it,Mrs Knowles looks just like Bey in this pic,thats what she will look like when she gets older.

  • mel

    AN THERE WAS ME THINKING BEYONCE LIFE WAS PERFECT OBVIOUSLY IF THE PERSON IS POSTING ANONYMOUS THEY ARE NOT GOING TO SAY I WAS IN TINA SALON YESTERDAY AN SHE SAID BLAH BLAH TO MY MOTHER THAT WOULD BE A BLATANT GIVE AWAY

  • mel

    ALL MY SINGLE LADIES, ALL MY SINGLE LADIES.. SORRY TINA COULDNT RESIST THAT

  • candi

    I’m not surprised. However, Tina made sure to make her money before they started to separate. Smart move Tina!

    As much as I “don’t get” beyonce, is funny/sad to see her running around daddy when she’s almost 30! So now I see why her a Jay are a perfect pair.

  • me

    she married her dad… this will be a replay in 20 years.

  • 303

    this is a stunner
    i am shock ! not bey parents –
    i didnt know things could go wrong in bey’s iconic world — i see where bey get her good hair from –
    her mama awe!

  • TKThomas

    As GORGEOUS as Tina is I”m surprised she married his ugly #%# in the first place!

  • the_one

    This is not news, just truth, church, tabernacle, choir, Mt. Zion and Jesus take the wheel.

  • Apres Ski

    They’ll keep this hidden until one of them falls in love & wants to get remarried.

  • Apres Ski

    Tina married him in the first place, because she realized she could manipulate him into doing her bidding.

    Now that Bey is on top and Sol is next in line, they’ve made their money back 10 fold and now, they want their lives back without each other . . . but with all the money style & comfort can buy!!

  • Huh?

    Well wouldn’t be surprising, they split before when Mathew was tryna get DC out there. Plus haven’t seen them together for a loooong time…but it’s true they’ll probably never actually do it coz of their ‘picture perfect’ family image

    [...] Tina Knowles leaving Mathew Knowles? [...]

  • http://www.myspace.com/colefuzion Can I Express Myself

    Come on people be sensible they perhaps stay together for the daughters sake and seeing now Matthew made a whole bunch.He is a smart crude business man you must admit.
    He’s not one of these lame ballers out here today. He married her so long ago when prenup wasnt imaginable so now it makes perfect sense its cheaper to keep her even if they lost the fire between them.
    And we know that Tina will be taking him for half his worth too so they both just humbly accept it

  • 2hot

    these are some ugly werid lookn ppl

  • Lil Mama C4

    @Star..yes hunny you hit the nail on the head that is why they won’t divorce they can’t be seen as “human” just “perfect”… Sheesh

  • Black, Yet Never Incarcerated!

    Tina has some spectacular tits. If I were single, I’d want to hit.

  • Black, Yet Never Incarcerated!

    Why is it so important to some people that Beyonce be made out to be older than she is?

  • http://BOSSIPP Gold Digger

    YOU CAN TELL MS.TINA WAS A GOLDIGGER IN HER DAY NOW MATTHEW CAKED UP HE DON’T WANT HER ASS.NOW SHE CAN GO GOLD DIGG OFF B

  • Truth-is-Truth

    I believe whole heartly that Bey is 37. And alot of other people do to. Even Gabby because she is the one who say the shyt.

  • SOMER

    I don’t believe Bey is 37 but I don’t believe she is 27 either. Putting back your age has become a standard in Hollywood. Alica Keys, John Legend and Aston Kutcher have all put their ages back. Demi & Aston are only 10yrs apart not 15. Alicia & John did not graduate high school at 16. If I had to guess, I would guess that Beyonce is around 31 or 32.

  • i don’t think so

    Beyonce did not graduate from high school. She dropped out.

  • bobbi

    LOL@ i don’t think so…

  • Savvy

    if this has any truth to it, it’s very sad.

  • Black, Yet Never Incarcerated!

    i don’t think so

    Beyonce did not graduate from high school. She dropped out.
    ———————————————-

    Your credible source for this is what?

    To accommodate her touring and performing schedule, Beyonce entered into a home schooling/tutoring program under the supervision of Alief Elsik High School and she did, in fact, graduate from there. Her father insisted that she complete high school and he has said in several interviews that he would have insisted that she go to college and prepare for a traditional career if the entertainment career had not taken off.

  • Black, Yet Never Incarcerated!

    I know it makes some people feel better to say:

    “Yeah, she’s rich and successful, but she didn’t finish high school and she lies about her age.”

    Like I said, if you know a person’s real name, then their age, date of birth, place of birth, and schools they attended is public information and easy to find out.

  • Black, Yet Never Incarcerated!

    Considering that Beyonce’s parents are supposed to be so “snobbish”, does it stand to reason that they would allow their daughters to have the negative social stigma of being a high school dropout attached to them?

  • i don’t think so

    To Black, Yet never Incarcerated:

    Beyonce did not graduate from high school and the fact that I posted that clarification is a matter of correction and nothing more. Keep reaching…and don’t bother to respond – my play time is over and I’m focused on other things now.

    Gold Digger: “YOU CAN TELL MS.TINA WAS A GOLDIGGER IN HER DAY”

    ————————————-

    Tina, a gold digger? Really? Tina Knowles owned one of the most successful hair salons in Houston (Headliners Hair Salon). She worked many long hours to build up her business. Working long hours and being an entrepreneur are not stereotypical “golddigger” traits…are they?

    Furthermore, Tina and Mathew separated for a while due to his pursuit of “stardom” for his daughter, which caused him to quit his job and put a greater financial burden on Tina. If she was such a golddigger, seems like she would have been pushing the stardom thing along with Mathew. To the contrary, she has stated many times that she was happy with the life she had and the money she and Mathew were making prior to the show biz success.

  • Black, Yet Never Incarcerated!

    i don’t think so

    To Black, Yet never Incarcerated:

    Beyonce did not graduate from high school and the fact that I posted that clarification is a matter of correction and nothing more. Keep reaching…and don’t bother to respond – my play time is over and I’m focused on other things now.
    ——————————————–

    Why am I the one who is “reaching”? I am not the one repeating unsubstantiated irrelevant “hearsay” picked up off the Internet.

    Even if it were true that B is 40 years old and dropped out of school in the 3rd grade, it still does not diminish her success and accomplishments one bit.

  • MS. E

    Mama Mila hit the nail on the head! yall need 2 be tryin 2 figure out how 2 reveal the fact that Kellyy Rowland is his actual child {y else u think Ms. Tina allowed her 2 come in…dont tell me u actual believed that “bff” -ish}

  • http://BOSSIPP HOLD YOUR HORSES

    TINA STARTED HER BUISSINESS WITH MATTS GOLD MONEY GET IT RIGHT LIKE ALL GOLD DIGGERS TRY TO START A SALON, CLOTHING LINE OR SOMETHING

  • http://BOSSIPP I AGREE

    Most gold diggers do take their husbands change, and try to start a clothing line or something.she did set up shop off of matthews money

  • real talk

    I can’t vouch for anyone, because i don’t know what these people go through in their homes. All we see is the perfect picture outside with all the fake smiles. Whether true or not, I’m not surprised. When priorities change, and money, status, control, ego, and competition starts taking place in marriage, all other things, that takes away the time spent or attention between husband and wife, divorce happens.

    And i will not be surprised if Bey and Jay go down the path too in the future. I’m not fooled about we keep our relationship private, vacationing together, making a lot of money together or the good girl image Bey tries to put on, because all of that don’t matter at the long run. Honestly, i don’t think Bey and Jay-z will last that long, especially with the way people are divorcing nowadays. Now, the obamas, i can definitely see a long life commitment.

  • IndustryInsiderTruth

    black, yet never incarcerated. Beyonce did in fact drop out of school when her career took off! letoya and latavia made a song about it saying they all quit going to school for destinys child and thats part of the reason why they were devistated when he just dumped them. they hadnt planned plan b.

    Beyonce and Kelly later went back and took a fugazy test to get a diploma just to maintain there image in case they were asked did they graduate they had proof they did. They didnt get those diplomas for the sake of an education. they went back and took that fugazy test AFTER they dropped out for brownie points and to manitain there image if asked about there education. People wouldnt have respected them if they dropped out to sing. there label and managment knows that!

    Humiliated?

    Must have been too hard for her staying married to the devil. Good riddance.

    [...] Tina Knowles is Trying to Get Her Groove Back: Mathew Knowles Gets the Boot From Tina [...]

  • Blu

    This is my first time coming to this website…I find it interesting how engaged some people are with the lives of people who aside from their celebrity are otherwise unknown to them! I don’t know any of them at all, so anything I say is mere speculation, but I was traveling through Houston once a few years ago and caught some radio show and they were speaking with both Beyonce and Tina on the phone. Had they not said that they were speaking with Tina and Beyonce Knowles I would have thought that they were just your run of the mill around the way folks. Tina and Matthew look like the type of people who put on airs but I didn’t gather that from the way she and Beyonce were speaking on air. I was actually taken aback by how uncouthe they sounded. I have also heard Solange on an interbiew not too long ago and she was also rather “around the way girlish” !! I love most of Beyonce’s music… I just think that we are a little oversaturated with her right now! You have to give the girl her props though, whether she is 27 or 37 ( and 37 isn’t “old”) She is an extremely successful african american woman and she is married to an equally successful african american man. I think they are both wise to keep the nosey behind public out of their relationship. I think they will have a successful marriage because the public doesnt rule their personal lives. People have the right to deal with their personal lives regardless of what their profession is and the Knowles are no different…. They Kelly theory was somewhat intrigueing though. I mean now that you mention it I never understood why her Momma would give custody over just for the sake of what showbiz? Oh well, thats their business too! This has been rather entertaining and has taken my mind off of my mgraine! Thanks folks I may visit this site again!

    Enough about this Tina and Matthew Knowles situation! If they are separated then its their personal business. What I wanna know is why females out dancing and shaking their butts, they gotta be labeled as ghetto. People really piss me off with labeling people as ghetto because you guys act like ghetto people are the only ones that are capable of wrongdoings and never good. And the last time I checked ghetto people aren’t the only ones out here shaking and showing their asses. Not all people in the ghetto act in negative ways but, too bad they’re all stacked in that category.
