Mathew Knowles Clarifies Stunning Response He Gave When Asked About Tina Knowles’ Contributions To Destiny’s Child
On Wednesday, March 4, Page Six published an exclusive interview with Mathew Knowles, and the outlet questioned him about his now-viral sitdown with PIX 11 News anchor Kendis Gibson. Per the outlet, Mathew explained that he doesn’t “do interviews.” As an alternative, he has “conversations.”
“I didn’t know what he meant by that,” Mathew explained to Page Six, referring to his conversation with Kendis Gibson. “So, I’m saying, well, calmly, ‘What work did she put in?’ That was an issue. I don’t understand how it became a comment, but it surely was an issue. If someone diminished what Tina does and just say, she did the hair, after which I come back and say, ‘No, she did the styling, isn’t that me giving flowers?”
Moreover, Mathew told the outlet that he’s “baffled” by the general public response and the clip’s virality.
“You possibly can’t even discover a negative comment I’ve ever said about Tina. So, I don’t get it… People attempt to bait us on a regular basis to be against one another. There was an entire misrepresentation here – and I’m evaluating all legal remedies right now,” Mathew added, noting that he and Tina have a “wonderful relationship” and he doesn’t confer with her as his ex-wife. “That’s a negative term… I’ve never referred to Tina as my ex. I’m all the time positive. She’s my former wife, and I give her the respect of that relatively than saying ex.”

Let’s be real, we all know Ms. Tina did way greater than just hair and styling. Being the mother played an enormous role in why all those girls are still thriving unlike most teen stars. Tina deserves all her flowers.”
