Tina Knowles’ net worth: Beyoncé’s mother is a self-made millionaire

If you know Beyoncé, chances are, you know Tina Knowles, too.

Commanding a striking presence at the 2025 Grammys and on countless red carpets, Knowles is the mother of pop superstar Beyoncé and her sister, the singer Solange. 

She is also mother-in-law to the world’s richest musician, rapper Jay-Z (Shawn Carter), and grandmother of their three (already) famous kids: Blue Ivy, Sir, and Rumi Carter.

But Ms. Tina, as she’s called, shines bright in her own right, as a successful entrepreneur, fashion designer, and businesswoman who built an empire with her popular Houston salon, Headliners, that helped fund Beyoncé’s early music career — first with Girl’s Tyme, and later, Destiny’s Child.
