(ThyBlackMan.com) Matthew Knowles, Beyonce’s father and former manager, has dirty laundry that has been all out in the public for years and many are taking different stances in the classic case of an affair gone terribly wrong.
In case you haven’t been following the story, Alexsandra Wright is the woman who had a son by Beyonce’s Father, Matthew Knowles.
I believe the story first broke in February of 2010 and spread like wildfire on the countless gossip blogs and tabloids circulating a picture of the boy making comparisons of resemblance to Matthew.
After a D.N.A. test proved that Beyonce now had a little brother named Nixon Alexander Knowles – notice how his last name is not Wright – the manipulation game was now “on and popping” from Alexsandra’s side of the planet.
First allow me to say this, that I am in no form trying to make an excuse for a man who has cheated on his wife, had an affair and made a baby.
I think it is despicable what he did and I also would have like to think that if he was going to go out their and play that he should have wrapped it up if he didn’t have any intentions of having a child with anyone.
As the now former manager of Beyonce’s career, he should know that he is a target for many women out here in the world who are looking for a foolish old man who has lots of money and looking to recapture their youth with a much younger woman resulting in a mess of a situation.
Their son is innocent and did not ask to be the focal point of the frailties and now very much public character flaws of his parents.
Yes, Matthew Knowles needs to be disgraced in every way possible while stepping to the plate and at least making sure that his son has a reasonable shot at a good life because he can easily provide it being the accomplished man that he is.
But, if he is going to be disgraced, then his former Mistress needs to catch some of the heat also.
Why did she have to go public with this when she could have gone to the courts from the beginning to get Matthew to PAY WHAT HE OWES IMMEDIATELY and refrain from her public displays of imminent poverty?
Listen, it’s not a pretty picture by a long shot but there are countless stories out here of the deadbeat Father who refuses to acknowledge his child/children and have not supported them financially in no way, shape or form.
What do these struggle Mothers do?
They go to the courts and handle the situation as they should by finding these deadbeats and making them pay!
Now these men are usually not as much of a public figure like Matthew Knowles is yet they find them and bring them to task.
So tell me this, if Matthew Knowles is not too hard to find, what is the motivation for such public displays of manipulated sympathy games and what is the ultimate prize that she is looking for if it isn’t to secure her son by forcing Matthew Knowles to contributing to his part of their mutual responsibility?
She is trying not only to shame Matthew Knowles but she is also attempting to play the “this is Beyonce’s little Brother and she should take him under her wing to live the glamorous money is no object life with her!”
“Look,the D.N.A. tests have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that Matthew Knowles is the Father of Nixon Alexander Knowles, but most women that I know who may have been in a similar situation are NOT going to give their child the last name of their deadbeat Father!“
Some do and some don’t but I believe the majority of single women who were in a similar situation to Alexsandra Wright would lean toward given their child THEIR last name.
So to me this is a very public attempt to not only get deadbeat dad Matthew Knowles to cough up the cash that he has in abundance and SHOULD pay up, but also the bigger prize of subtly manipulating Beyonce into somehow getting involved and taking Matthew’s son under her wing which would benefit Alexsandra indirect in a very big way.
Matthew Knowles DID suggest that Beyonce and Jay Z raise Nixon so the seed was definitely planted in Alexsandra head.
Look at it this way, if Nixon gets to go around the world with Beyonce on tour and on her various appearances, wouldn’t it make sense that the Mother will also be by his side reaping the benefits of all of the goodness that falls down on his life?
I swear that this had to be a part of why she is pushing so hard in the wrong direction so publicly in this case.
Beyonce is NOT RESPONSIBLE for her Father and his lack of control in keeping his zipper zipped and I feel that Alexsandra’s equally foolish inability to keep her legs closed was fueled by the fact that she thought that she would be part of an Entertainment Dynasty that has endless money by the boat loads raining down on them like there’s no tomorrow.
Sure, she says the right thing by stating that this is not Beyonce’s issue but she also says that she wants Nixon to meet his older Sister.
But she knows that if this were to happen that the cameras would be snapping like out of control fireworks and it would put Beyonce in a funny position to actually show constant love ($$$$$$$) to her little Brother where Alexsandra would once again benefit?
I say that Alexsandra should stop focusing on her very public rants and go get a job!
She says that she wants to fight for her son then go ahead and get the public assistance as so many Mothers out here have before you, suck it up and make do until the courts bring Matthew Knowles to financial justice!
“As precious and adorable as your son may be Ms. Wright, your situation doesn’t deserve any more better treatment than the faceless women out here who are going through the same thing too!
…….get to the end of the line!
You will always be suspect to me because at the end of the day you ARE a two bit actress (Ms. Wright had a small one time role in the television series “Scrubs” back in 2001) and probably can’t face that you never made it big.
And when will you realize that because of your need to selfishly force yourself into their life by cracking your legs open to a weak willed married man has caused a family to break up?
Yes, Matthew is just as guilty but understand that you might never cash in on your whorish actions because what you’ve allowed has broken up an entire family and damaged their internal business affairs forever.
Whatever happened to keeping your legs closed to a married man?”
So after hearing of this developing mess, Beyonce fired her Father Matthew from being her manager and Beyonce’s Mother – Tina Knowles – filed for divorce to end their marriage of 31 years.
On several occasions Alexsandra has stated that she will never stop fighting for her son’s identity. But what does she really mean by this?
To me that statement is an indication about what this entire affair is all about, to attached her cash cow and meal ticket of an innocent son, to some extremely famous people who could benefit her sorry ass life in a very big way.
She played her hand and found herself on the losing end of the game and now wants to lash out in one last attempt at cashing in.
Listen.
Alexsandra.
Get a job.
Take Matthew Knowles to court as much as humanly possible to make him pay what he owes his son.
Stop the circus and raise your son without the spotlight, paparazzi and cameras.
Lick your wounds, learn from your devious ways and maybe something will work out for you.
Stop making a spectacle of an innocent child and step to the plate as a real woman to do whatever needs to be done to raise him!
Take the same precious energy that you’ve used to bitch and moan publicly and love your Son even more in private.
Maybe then you might get that one unexpected phone call telling you that a little “help” is on the way from your son’s older Sister.
I hope this spectacle has been a learning experience for both men and women alike who might be considering playing the same dangerous game that Matthew Knowles and Alexsandra Wright have with their very disastrous results…….
@Papacool…I just heard about Oprah. It was her stepmom she evicted. She lived with Oprah’s dad, Vernon. They may have been married. Anyway, Barbara (Oprah’s stepmom) busted Vernon with a prostitute named ‘One Tooth.’ I don’t mean to correct you but when I heard about Oprah evicting her stepmom, I thought about your comment. Wouldn’t you know it, even at his age, Vernon subscribes to the Jerry Springer, Maury Povich (thank God he hasn’t made any babies) concept as a personal choice.
This is off the subject, but I’m gonna mention it because I haven’t seen an article about it. Not that long ago, I read about Steve McNair’s widow, Michele, kicking Steve’s mother out of the house he had built for his mother. This story was also featured on one of those ‘Sins and Secrets-‘ or ‘Who The Bleep-like programs.
Amazing article I totally agree with you! Why does this woman clearly keep focusing on Beyonce if its not about money? Maybe I just have not seen it but does she ever mention Solange?
The pictures she arranged for gossip sites in addition to her letter to Sandra Rose followed by her televised interview with Inside Edition shows ME what she’s after. Beyonce’s name is ALWAYS bought up. When two women can lay on top of each other and create a child.. THEN I’ll have sympathy for Alexsandra. She thought she hit the jackpot and failed miserably. IF she don’t care for her own son’s peace of mind and comfort… why should anyone else? What happened to WORKING for a living? Is she retired already at 43? How wonderful for her. ALSO… where’s the $12,000.00/mo she was receiving for YEARS in child support??? You can see the yacht trips and exotic vacations on her Facebook page. Tuh! Who knew children liked diamonds so much?
Predatory male. Predatory female. Human poker chip is the result. Another chance of black male failure due to the results of these two predators. You can’t complain about the fruit when the trees are so rotten.
Here we go these azz long diatrides about morals. How things are handled. What he should know, how she should have known….who gives a damn. I don’t see Nixon’s name mentioned as much as Beyoncé’s This is shameful, this child needs care and there is a way to see that he gets it whether Matthew wants the mother involved or not. So let’s remember who is important her, no matter how he got here…………..Nixon! The rest is grown up dog on dog bull and Nixon should not have to suffer one moment because of it. Young black men are destroying themselves over this type of neglect every day, they look for acceptance in drugs, drinking and violence. They are put at risk everyday. Their lives are not valued in most of the world and they know it. Why in Gods name would anyone put this child in the mind frame, to feel no one cares for him. If he should grow up and become a deterrent to a decent human being, he will blame her and she will blame him. But by that time the damage will have only been done to Nixon. This is a disgrace to the black community at large. We should spend time fighting for our children, not fighting the court system because we didn’t show them the love we know we should have.
I’ve heard this story for days. There is only one point about it that is important….The child…the rest is irrelevant. This story is no more than a point of interest because Matthew is Beyoncé’s father. Stop trying to shift the blame. No man should have to be reminded of that and no man should have to be shamed into caring for his son, regardless of what, who, or how she became to be his mother. There is a child at stake her. There is only one question, when and how is Nixon going to be taken care of the hell with the adults. However this story wouldn’t even have hit print if Beyoncé’s father hadn’t snuck out and made Beyoncé’s little brother. This child needs financial support and Matthew has to supply it until he at least 18. To try to step back on what he has been doing is manlessness. He’s got to do his part and is expected to just like any other man. This child never asked to come here and all this worthless opinions aren’t getting things any better for him. How a society can spend more time talking about what his mother is or isn’t as opposed to what he needs is beyond me. This child will carry scars for life because of this. There are too many children (especially black young men) who spend their lives in destruction because they never felt loved and Matthew has no damn right putting this child in such a postion. Mom wasn’t too low down when he left his home to be with her, for years. But now that he’s moved on nothing he’s done there means anything. Nixon is important. He doesn’t know what his father is or what his mother is, I am sure he loves them both.
Matthew should shut up and take care of his son, just like any other man. The story started when Matthew left his home, period. If the mother is no damn good, that’s the way she was when he bedded her, no surprise and he should not use that as an excuse to short change Nixon. We’ve heard Matthews story, then we here, “BUT” but what…….Nixon is here and he’s his father….But nothing.
Due to the fact that people love to jump to conclusions before getting all of the facts, let me state a few words on this matter. All have sinned and fallen short and if you have not then hooray for you as you cast the first stone. Whatever is done in the dark, will be brought to light. As a man let me state that with our very nature being sinful, we seldom turn down the chance to GET IT ON when the opportunity presents itself. Not every man will do it, but the probability of most men doing it is high. This is a fact. Now, no one besides God and Mr. Knowles and Ms. Alexander know what allowed the opportunity to occur. By having the child, we all know that the act itself happened.
Initially, there have been no reports of any weapons being used or anyone forced to participate in the pro-creation process. Ms. Alexander had to allow herself to be approached or else a charge of rape would have resulted. So far, no charge. The name of this game as all others is that both parties have a responsibility now as the child is an innocent victim of their actions. Pointing fingers or trying to blame one over the other is not going to alleviate the fact that the child, Nelson, is here. Now the true question one should ask is what is acceptable in providing for the needs of the child. A court should not have to decide this issue as both parents have to look out for the best interest of the child. I am Nelson is not even aware of the value of money and has no idea he has more opportunities at his disposal based on the nature of his family dna.
Ms. Alexander needs to honestly look and realize her status both prior to giving birth and after. Her monetary status should be based on what she had at the time and where she is now. Most people of status, both men and women, are opportunities waiting to happen in the eyes of predators. As a society we are accustomed to hearing about child support and dead beat parents, but regardless, the child needs to be raised. Go back to the wisdom of Solomon, the bottom line was that when death of the child was put on the table,the truth came out. The true mother would not allow her child to die. This should be the same principle applied here. It should not matter if Mr Knowles provides or not, someone in the equation has to just take the responsibility of raising the child without asking for compensation.
Oprah just evicted her former mother in law from one of her many properties and this act is not making headlines. Gold digging is being done by both men and women if the truth could be told. By outting someone or trying to make someone pay will only increase hostilities between the parties involved as emotions creep in where they do not need to be. All I know is that I would gladly share any extras I have if it would help someone who has a greater need than me. All of this keeping an eye on what Beyonce has or what her role should be is not logical. All families have some dirty laundry or else we are not meant to be here. Some are just better at flying under the radar than others. Trust me when I state that what goes around, will come around as God is not mocked and no bad deed will go unpunished. This whole situation is a private civil matter and should be treated as such. If Mr. Knowles does not give his son one dime, then he has to live with that. All the talking about and judging him is not going to change the truth from being what it is.
Unless Ms. Alexander is accustomed to sleeping with strangers, you can bet she knew Mr. Knowles and his situation of who he was married to and who his daughter was. Counting on people to accept the failings of others is absolutely insane. Beyonce is not accountable for her fathers sin or vice versa. Being married, Mr. Knowles, could have stated that he was separated at the time, or offer a number of reasons why he did what he did. Bottom line is that only God can judge him, and not us. As people we are often amused and entertained by the failings and weaknesses of others, especially those who are successful.
What we seem to forget that to whom much was given, much is required as they have more responsibilities to live up to. I do not subscribe to such Jerry Springer and Maury Povich concepts as a personal choice. This does not make me immune to problems, but at least I can sleep at night knowing that I am not contributing to the ball of confusion. In closing, be careful what you ask for, as when you get it, it may not be all that it was cracked up to be. Make it better one day at a time. Peace out, Papacool.
“Whatever happened to keeping your legs closed to a married man?” C’mon, now. You know dog gone well there will always be females who only want somebody else’s man. And these men couldn’t be anymore happier until his marriage/relationship/family is no more.
“…weak willed man…” Is that what men have been all these years? That’s the excuse? Being weak allows them to screw whoever. I guess “JUST SAY NO” doesn’t apply to these men because they are weak-minded. Damn.
@Ms. Monica….Look, don’t you ever tell me what I’m too old for. No, two wrongs don’t make nothing right. TWO WRONGS ARE TWO WRONGS! BTW, which statement(s) didn’t you like or disagreed with? I hope all of them because I have some more for ya.
Matthew Knowles (and other cheating spouses) are directly responsible for breaking up their marriages/families. Husbands are the closest to their wives. Not the other female.
“Who does that?” HER AND MATTHEW DID THAT!
“Women can’t do what men do and still be a lady.” Well, she was enough of a lady to be HIS whore. Married men use “ladies” reactions toward them as an excuse fot their own actions.
Look toomanygrandkids, two wrongs make nothing right. Why should she waddle in the MUD like he did ? You are too old to make a statement like that! Women can’t do what mean do and still be a lady. Who does that !
It should read: …wouldn’t be put through…
…in the most hurtful way.
…run deep.
Guess I was typing too fast.
You men and your lack of control. If you didn’t crawl between every pair of legs without protection, so many illegitimate children wouldn’t put through this shit. At his age you’d think he would’ve at least known that it’s possible ANY woman would try to use him. But noooooo. Big Daddy gotta get his groove on. He’s at fault for breaking up his family. He’s the one who betrayed his family in the mostful way. It seems to never dawn on men that mistrust and betrayal runs deep. It leaves a deep scar that sometimes takes a long time to repair. But of course men like Matthew haven’t figured that part out yet.
And this bitch. I bet the words “gold diggin’ ho” was written all over her when she walked up and smiled at Matthew. And she read the words “sucker for a (fill in blank) written over him when he smiled back at her.
I think Tina should had stayed married to Matthew and had an affair of her own. Wonder how Big Daddy would’ve handlled that?!
