Best wishes to both parties! However, bossip why are you bleeping out words that are not profanity?
oh please 12/18/09, 12:26:AM

Stop it these two have been living, seperate and divorced, for the past three years…. and that old geezer has a baby on the way.
darealwifey 12/18/09, 12:26:AM

@ D. Brown

If the sanctity of the marriage has already been broken, then what spirit are you continuing to bind yourself to?

I think this marriage was broken long ago, but they put on a united front for the sake of their girls’ careers.
Ne Ne aka iB@S 12/18/09, 12:27:AM

excuse me ‘reliable source’, but takin the time out to go search for someones divorce papers is nosey!
Vern 12/18/09, 12:32:AM

It seems like a marriage isn’t worth a dime anymore!

kapreeshus™ 12/18/09, 12:52:AM

Oh yeeeeaaaa, Bossip????????
I guess it is what it is. Tina and Matthew are on seperate grinds, tho.
I remember seeing them both while I was in Houston a couple years back, but, they were never seen together.
kapreeshus™ 12/18/09, 12:55:AM

That pic just says it all, though…
leah 12/18/09, 01:01:AM

This will have an effect on Beyonce the most!
Kigali 12/18/09, 01:07:AM

@Vern

The issue isnt marriage its the people involved.
Kigali 12/18/09, 01:07:AM

Well these two had a good run. They raised their children to adulthood and they did very well. I hope and wish for them the best.

Well shit happens. Is it big news? NO people get divorced everyday. It is unfortunate but why be UNHAPPY! I am tired of media dragging families through the mud this is still hard to go through.

Wish him/her and the family the best!

If a man go gets a baby outside of our marriage..I would leave his ass too. We don’t know how many years she has been dealing with Matthew’s bullsh**. She rich now anyway so she will find someone else..
anonymous 12/18/09, 03:33:AM

First of all it’s about being happy. At least they were able to raise their daughters unto adult hood and teach them morals and repect. Saying that Tina should remember her vows, what about Matthew. He’s the one that step outside of their marriage and even reproduce with some whore ass person. Their daughters will be ok. Matthew is just a big asshole that have cheated before and was given a chance to change.
S-DUB:SoundsOFF | Yes, This Shit Right Here, Is Tha REALEST! 12/18/09, 04:57:AM

[...] Bossip is reporting that Tina Knowles filed for divorce from Matthew Knowles last month. This apparently happened a month after love child rumors came out about Matthew. [...]
Lyrically Challenged 12/18/09, 05:03:AM

We fell in love
And who could blame us
The word was we were just beside ourselves
And everybody said it wouldn’t last
Now they wonder
Why we didn’t last

We fell in love
It seemed so righteous
Couldn’t compare our love to no one else
And everybody thought we could not win
It’s no wonder
Love came to an end

And our feelings
Just aren’t feelings anymore
They’re just words that come from whispers
From people we don’t know
And our feelings
Just aren’t feelings anymore
They’re just words without emotion
From people who don’t know

We fell apart
The bond was broken
Should’ve kept our thoughts between ourselves
And though they say they cared
They didn’t help
Makes me wonder
Should we blame ourselves

So here we are
Broken hearted
What in the world have we done to ourselves
When everybody said to let it end
It makes me wonder
We can’t let them win

HOOK

If we’d only just try we could make it by
And maybe in time we could make it right
If we only had done what we shoulda done
We’d both be here still making love
I wanna know that, that we can go back
Back to the times when the lovin’ was all that
When no one could come between our love

HOOK

If this can be believed:

“Mathew Knowles (born January 9, 1951)”

This old b-a-s-t-a-rd should be somewhere teaching his grandson how to play “tee ball”, instead of going out there making a new uncle or aunt that will be 5 YEARS YOUNGER than the grandchild.

“No fool like an OLD FOOL”.
Carmen 12/18/09, 06:57:AM

Next. Beyonce and Jay-Z…their marriage is a SHAM too.
Gmen 12/18/09, 07:41:AM

Married women unite. If the man you married is trash. Rake his a** and take his cash. Not all men cheat.
Re 12/18/09, 08:01:AM

WOW. Although I can’t say I’ve been a fan of Matthew Knowles, I kind of liked that he and Tina were married for so long.

Divorce is sad no matter how old the kids are…but at least it happened now as opposed to then.
