Tina Knowles Claps Back at Kanye West's Controversial Tweets About Beyoncé's Kids!

Tina Knowles is standing up for her family.

Following Kanye West posting an inappropriate comment about Rumi and Sir, Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s seven-year-old twins, Tina Knowles-Lawson (also known as Beyoncé’s mother) gave a discreet response.

Today, Tina is on the filming set of a photoshoot for her book. Exuding an enhanced look, she posted a video on Instagram on March 19th and shared that she couldn’t resist telling a cheesy joke due to her fancy hairstyle and makeup.

She went on to say, “Would you like to know? I’ll tell you. When a snowman gets upset, he experiences a thaw-off.” (Thaw = melt, off = down)

The 71-year-old, who is Solange Knowles’ mother, playfully grinned at the camera and said, “You all know that’s amusing.

Tina’s reply follows the latest series of contentious social media messages from rapper “Runaway,” which also involved damaging allegations against his former partner Kim Kardashian, regarding their children North (aged 11), Saint (9), Chicago (7), and Psalm (5).

Despite her former partner’s recent outburst in the public eye, Kim has remained silent about his comments. Yet, Kanye posted what appears to be their text messages on March 15th.

In our chat, it’s reported that Kanye, being deeply passionate about his craft, seems to respond to Kim’s attempt to prevent him from releasing a track featuring our daughter North and the esteemed artist, Diddy Combs—who, at present, is detained pending trial on accusations of sex trafficking and racketeering.

Kanye West, known for his hit “Jesus Walks,” previously posted messages on social media (since removed), where Kim informed her former partner that she had submitted legal documents to ensure she wouldn’t appear in a song with Diddy, for her own protection.

In a different purportedly sent message, Kanye claimed that Kim had registered the trademark for their oldest child’s name.

In a separate message, Kim stated that she had previously asked if her name could be trademarked. Kanye replied affirmatively, indicating that when she turns 18, the rights would be transferred to her. Therefore, he urged him to stop the issue.

Kim hasn’t explicitly spoken about co-parenting with Kanye, but in the past, she mentioned on a podcast that she feels like she’s essentially raising their four children alone.

On the “What in the Winkler?” podcast in November, she shared with Zoe Winkler that they primarily bonded over parenting experiences and judgments, often feeling isolated despite having strong support networks.

In a 2013 blog post, she expressed that motherhood is a precious gift, acknowledging its challenges, particularly when it comes to juggling a career. She went on to say that she feels privileged to emulate her mom and make her as proud as she is of her.

In essence, it’s crucial that children are made to feel cared for and understood, as Kim expressed during her GQ interview in November 2023. She emphasized the importance of being considerate because they are still young, and any change can be difficult, regardless of their age.

In a November 2023 episode of “The Kardashians,” she expressed, “‘Dad is amazing,’ she said. ‘He manages everything on his own – no nanny, no chef, no security – living in an apartment.’ And then she’d get emotional, saying, ‘Why don’t we have an apartment like him? I can’t believe we’re not living in one too.’

In a 2023 episode of The Kardashians, I playfully teased my sister, Kourtney Kardashian, saying she believes North serves as my life lesson here on Earth.

She jokingly mentioned that her eldest daughter is teaching her the value of patience, as she put it. In essence, she has imparted profound wisdom about life to her.

In a piece for Wealthsimple published in July 2018, she expressed concern about overindulging her children. They don’t receive gifts casually; they have to truly deserve them. Regular discussions take place in our household about avoiding excessive possessions and aiming instead for balance and well-roundedness.

In 2018, during a Calvin Klein ad campaign photoshoot, I shared that being a mom doesn’t just mean caring about anything else; it means focusing solely on what’s happening within my home at the moment. The rest of the world almost seems to disappear.

The SKIMS entrepreneur emphasized, “Only what your family provides truly matters. I believe this focus aids significantly in finding balance and staying rooted.

In a Mobio Insider Q&A, Kim once stated, “It transformed my existence entirely. I now possess a completely different set of values,” or alternatively, “It revolutionized my life. Now, I uphold a fresh collection of values.” Furthermore, Kim expressed, “What’s crucial is the newly formed family I have.” An alternative phrasing could be, “The most important thing to me is this newfound family I’ve created.

In a 2017 blog post, Kim expressed an endless, unwavering affection for her children. Regardless of the circumstances, she will continue to cherish them and provide support for any path they decide to take in their lives.

Being a mom also shined new light on her own upbringing.

She expressed that her family was incredibly close when she was young, and as a mother herself now, she appreciates the connection her parents shared with us. Despite the challenges that come with raising children, she continually gains valuable insights from them. In her opinion, being a mom is the most significant role she embodies.

On “The View,” she clarified her approach to sharing aspects of her life. Although she enjoys doing so, she mentioned that she’s become more guarded recently about what she shares. She’s learned from past experiences that certain details shared in real-time might need to be adjusted. For instance, she might take a photo, save it, and post it later when she’s no longer at the location or has moved to another place. This change came after she found posting every detail didn’t work out so well for her following the Paris robbery.

She shared with TopMob News that after having her baby, she took a break and found it tough to return to work due to not wanting to be apart. However, she adapted, reprioritized, and managed to find a way to make it work!

Kim expressed on The Real in 2017 that she needs to comprehend something before others can fully appreciate it, and if there’s a reason for celebration, she wants to celebrate the baby. Yet, she believes she should clarify her thoughts to her kids first and determine how she will explain it to them appropriately.

She expressed her heartfelt gratitude in a 2017 episode of ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’. She’s deeply thankful, incredibly grateful for this person because they are so unselfishly kind and thoughtful in what they did.

In a post on her app in January 2015, she stated, “Some individuals view breastfeeding as an intimate, personal act, while others are more open and may even do so in public settings. As a mother now, I believe that whatever helps you feel at ease is acceptable.

Back in 2015, I frequently mentioned my little brother to TopMob News. She’s such a darling! Just the other day, she asked if she could give baby brother a kiss on my belly, and she did! What a sweetheart!

Kim acknowledged that her daughter, North, is exceptionally sweet, yet she confessed there were times when North found it challenging to be around other infants. However, Kim noted that North has been improving in this area recently.

She added, “I’m hoping that with her brother it’s a whole new experience.”

In a 2015 episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Kim expressed her gratitude, saying, “I don’t underestimate it. It’s a miracle that I’m expecting again, and I feel incredibly blessed.

During her pregnancy with her second child, Kim expressed on Twitter in June 2015, “Expectant Kiki means business! *BLOOP!*

In a June 2015 Instagram post, Kim expressed that moments like traveling with you are what truly makes life worth living for her. She went on to say that you are an amazing father to North and will continue to be an exceptional father to your upcoming son as well!

In a tweet posted in July 2015, during her pregnancy with her son Saint, Kim wrote: “I found secret joy in the speculation that I was pretending to be pregnant because I was so slim! Now it’s not a secret anymore – I’m 5 months (20 weeks) along and have gained 20 pounds.

In her interview with TopMob News in November 2015, she expressed that she feels incredibly fortunate and grateful to be pregnant, as she faced significant difficulties conceiving. She emphasized that despite the challenges, it’s all worth it a million times over.

In a response to internet critics who doubted her pregnancy, the star of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” posted a nude selfie with the comment, “Initially they thought I was too thin and had to be pretending, now they say I’m too large and must also be pretending…Sigh!

She emphasized in a post from August 2015 on Instagram that each person’s body is unique and every pregnancy varies considerably. What she has come to appreciate, she stated, is loving her body at all its stages!

During this pregnancy, I find myself yearning for a Lorraine Schwartz diamond choker, similar to the ones I’ve donned at the Art + Film Gala in the past. I jokingly mentioned it on my app back in November 2015, saying “Perhaps too extravagant? Laugh Out Loud!

“Having my daughter is my biggest achievement. All the things you used to do, you just don’t care about anymore. Your child becomes the #1 priority.” -Kim Kardashian, Twitter, February 2015.

2015 saw me expressing my greatest accomplishment yet on Twitter – the joy of becoming a father to my precious daughter. Since then, I’ve been blessed with the arrivals of my sons as well. Now, things that once mattered little to me no longer hold the same weight. My children have taken the top spot in my priorities, making them my utmost focus and passion. #1 Priority, indeed.

She playfully commented on Instagram in October 2015, ‘I feel like a super model!’, followed by laughter emojis and the hashtag ‘#InStyleAwards’.

Kim reused the Givenchy dress she had worn at the 2013 Met Gala, while she was expecting North, transforming it into a Halloween costume as she prepared to welcome Saint.

“Still fits,” she captioned an October 2015 snapshot. “I think I nailed the Kim K costume!”
