LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: If one follows Beyonce’s mother Tina Knowles, 69, on social media, one might feel something is off about her marriage with the ‘Black Terror’ actor Richard Lawson, 76. While there has been no public announcement or confirmation, noticing some recent activities on social media, some hawk-eyed fans started questioning whether everything is all right between the ‘Halo’ singer’s mother and her husband of eight years.

Is Tina Knowles splitting up with Richard Lawson?
Lawson’s absence from the Knowles and Carter families’ events is the most poignant clue. Recently, on July 2, Jay-Z’s mother Gloria Carter tied the knot with her longtime girlfriend Roxanne Wiltshire after coming out as lesbian six years prior. The ‘Scream Dracula Scream’ actor was conspicuously absent from the happy occasion. The fans have started noticing his absence from Beyonce’s tour too. Moreover, Lawson has been promoting his film ‘Black Terror’ in several film festivals, including Cannes. But Knowles was not there accompanying him.
Beyonce’s mother was also noticed quietly dropping the ‘The Jericho Mile’ actor’s surname from her name on her Instagram bio, going Tina Knowles from Tina Knowles-Lawson, as per Aceshowbiz. The ‘Sugar Hill’ actor was also seen without his ring recently. All things together have piqued the fans’ doubts who are eager to know whether things are alright between the couple.
'It’s all good'
As per Atlanta Black Star, Lawson posted a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson on June 4 with the caption, “One of my favorite quotes. Emerson is a genius. #wisdom #empower #selfrespect #selfreminder.” However, what draws attention is a curious (concerned” fan’s comments where they asked the actor why has he not joined his wife abroad. The fan wrote, “Why aren’t you with Mrs. Tina overseas. Concerned fan ❤️”
To the question, however, Lawson replied while saying that everything ios all right and thanked the fan for their concern. He replied that he was there in Los Angeles as he was working in his film, “I’m doing a series here in LA and working on my film. Thanks for your concern. It’s all good.”
'Sadly it looks like him and Tina split up'
As Richard Lawson posted a picture with his friend Nicki Micheaux, fans started speculating about their alleged split. One fan commented, "Sadly it look like him and Tina split up. They didn't post anything about their anniversary back in April. Usually she always repost about the Waco theater or something about him being in the Cannes, showing support. Praying everything is ok and hope this is an assumption."
While another commented, "I was wondering. She’s been in tour with her daughter and she posted something so weird a few weeks ago asking why men cheat when they have good wives. She didn’t even join Richard in Cannes for the film , although she was already in Europe. Very sad." Another commented, "Nope he’s been liking some pretty revealing pics of a woman that is probably in her late twenties, early thirties…" Someone else questioned, "Where is Tina have you two split? ???"
