Tina Knowles, Beyoncé’s mother, is preparing to give her ex-husband Richard Lawson a sizable payout.

According to In Touch, Knowles, who divorced Lawson last year, stipulated in their settlement that Knowles would give $300,000 to Lawson.

Both sides won’t receive any additional spousal support after that.

Furthermore, a non-disparagement clause in the settlement prohibits Knowles and Lawson from speaking negatively about one another, their children, or the spouses of those children.

Knowles’ second spouse was Lawson. 2015 saw their marriage.

In July 2023, Knowles filed for divorce, claiming irreconcilable differences. There are no children between the pair.

“Ms. Tina” requested at the time that the court take away Richard’s right to request spousal maintenance, ensuring that he would not approach her for money following their divorce.

In addition, she asked the court to revert her legal name back to Celestine Knowles from Celestine Lawson, which she had changed when she initially got married.

Beyoncé is currently experiencing more good things in her life, such as a number of well-known Black country musicians covering her songs.

Brittney Spencer, Tanner Adell, Joy Oladokun, BRELAND, and other artists perform singles by Beyoncé, including “1+1,” “Drunk in Love,” “Irreplaceable,” “Sandcastles,” “II Most Wanted,” and “Halo,” as part of Apple Music’s “Nashville Sessions” series.

Tiera Kennedy, who appears on the six-song playlist, told Apple Music, “Beyoncé has opened a door that’s going to be really hard to close.”

Since its release in March, Beyoncé’s own country endeavor, Cowboy Carter, has seen significant popularity. With 407,000 equivalent album units in its first week, the album topped the Billboard 200 chart, marking the largest sales week of 2024 at the time. However, Taylor Swift’s most recent release has since surpassed it in sales.

The Houston native’s career total of Billboard Hot 100 songs is at 106, with twenty-three of the album’s 27 tracks reaching the chart. Since the Hot 100 was first introduced in 1958, she is currently just the 17th artist and the third woman to receive over 100 entries.
