Tina Knowles-Lawson initiates divorce from Richard Lawson following an 8-year marriage
After eight years of marriage, Tina Knowles-Lawson and Richard Lawson are parting ways. Knowles-Lawson filed for divorce in Los Angeles, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason. She requested the court to terminate spousal support for both parties and revert her name to Celestine Knowles.
The couple tied the knot in April 2015, but their connection goes back decades as they had known each other for years before dating. Tina was previously married to Mathew Knowles, with whom she shares daughters Beyoncé and Solange. Richard Lawson was also married before, and they have a daughter named Bianca.
On their wedding anniversary in 2021, Richard fondly recalled the moment his late sister introduced him to Tina. He expressed his admiration for her beauty, heart, compassion, generosity, and philanthropy, and how his attraction to her had grown over time.
