Tina Knowles has come to the defense of her family after Kanye West made disturbing comments about Beyoncé and Jay-Z‘s children.
West questioned the cognitive development of Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s 7-year-old twins, Rumi and Sir, using offensive language in a since-deleted post on X.
Tina Knowles responded with a subtle yet powerful message on Instagram, sharing a “corny joke” about a snowman having a meltdown when it throws a tantrum.
In her initial caption, Knowles addressed the challenge of staying positive in the face of “ignorance and evil,” affirming her faith that no harm would come to her family. She later edited the caption to simply read “Corny joke, time!” with a heart emoji. Knowles’ response was widely praised for its classy yet firm stance against West’s remarks.
Kanye West later expressed regret over his post, citing the potential suspension of his X account as the reason for its deletion. He also shared grievances against Jay-Z, including feeling hurt by Jay-Z’s absence at his wedding to Kim Kardashian.
Tina Knowles has been promoting her upcoming memoir, Matriarch, set to release in April. At a recent summit, she emphasized the importance of family and resilience, values she instilled in her daughters, Beyoncé and Solange. Knowles’ defense of her family highlights her commitment to protecting them from public scrutiny and negativity.
