Beyonce Has Mended Fences With Her "Proud Dad"
Posted on Thu May 19th, 2016 9:40am PDT By X17 Staff
Beyoncé seems to have patched things up with her estranged father Mathew Knowles. The pop star's mom, Tina Knowles-Lawson, posted a smiling photo on Instagram of the daddy-daughter duo backstage of her Formation Tour.
Bey's mom captioned the smiling snap, "Houston Concert proud dad!!!!" Beyoncé's mother captioned the picture that was taken on May 7.
This interesting turn of events comes a month after Queen B's new song, "Daddy Lessons," hit the masses. The song, which is off of her controversial Lemonade album, references a cheating father (as well as husband) with the lyrics, "You remind me of my father, a magician. Able to exist in two places at once. In the tradition of men in my blood, you come home at 3 a.m. and lie to me. What are you hiding?"
In an interview, the father/former manager said that he "can only speculate like everyone else" as to what the lyrics meant but then in another interview he said, "I can only speak of being a proud father."
Beyonce and her father have been having issues for a number of years. Her mother and father divorced in 2011. Later that year, Bey cut business ties with her father, who had managed her career since she began Destiny's Child in the late '90s.
The whole family has been at odds since the divorce (and we assume since the events that led up to the divorce), but we are glad to see that Bey and her sister Solange can come together with their father and put their past behind them. You only get one dad!
