Tina Knowles is getting candid in her upcoming tell-all memoir, and one revelation is catching readers by surprise: a secret reunion with her ex-husband, Mathew Knowles, that she kept hidden from their daughters, Beyoncé and Solange.
Though the two officially separated in 2009 and finalized their divorce in 2011, Tina shares that there was a moment before their permanent split when they reconnected privately. According to Tina, the reunion was more about closure and clarity than reconciliation—and it was something she felt she needed to process on her own, without involving the family.
The Knowles family has long been admired for their strength and unity, but Tina’s memoir gives a deeper look at the personal struggles she navigated behind the scenes. Her decision to keep the reunion private was, as she puts it, a way to protect her daughters from confusion during an already emotional period.
The memoir promises more behind-the-curtain moments from Tina’s life as a mother, creative force, and businesswoman—and this chapter is already proving to be one of the most talked about.
