Beyoncé's mother, Tina Knowles, has filed for divorce from the pop diva's father and manager, Mathew Knowles.
Tina Knowles began legal proceedings on November 11, according to documents filed with the Harris County Court Clerk. She launched the House of Dereon clothing line with Beyoncé in 2006.
"The decision to end our marriage is an amicable one. We remain friends, parents, and business partners," the couple said in a statement on Friday. "If anyone is expecting an ugly messy fight, they will be sadly disappointed. We ask for your respect of our privacy as we handle this matter."
