Tina Knowles Files For Divorce

Late last week word broke out that after nearly 30 years of marriage Tina Knowles filed for divorce from Mathew Knowles.

The split of Beyonce’s parents follows previous reports of a paternity suit filed against Mathew by actress Alexsandra Wright, from Los Angeles, who claimed that Papa Knowles is the father of her unborn child.

The 55-year-old mother of Beyonce began divorce proceedings against her husband on November 11.

However, while the two are ending their marriage neither party plans to do so on bad terms.

Both Mathew and Tina have released a statement that reads:

“The decision to end our marriage is an amicable one. We remain friends, parents, and business partners. If anyone is expecting an ugly messy fight, they will be sadly disappointed. We ask for your respect of our privacy as we handle this matter.”
