Are the Knowles sisters on bad terms? After people couldn’t find more than one picture of Beyoncé and Solange together last week for the “Cranes in the Sky” singer’s son Julez Smith, Jr.’s Luar runway walk at New York Fashion Week, fans believed their theories were true. During the Luar show, Bey and Tina Knowles sat together as they were swarmed by paparazzi, while Solange was in a different part of the room sitting alone, taking pictures and videos of her son.
A couple of days ago Beyoncé’s magazine spread dedicated to her haircare line, Cécred, featuring pictures of Tina, Blue Ivy, and Rumi, all important women in “16 Carriages” singer’s life, but Solange is nowhere to be found. Today, Solange’s magazine feature with Harper’s Bazaar dropped, with no pictures of her sister and only a couple of references to her.
Over the past couple of years, people have noticed that Solange hasn’t posted much of her sister on social media or been seen often with her in public. Fans caught that while other family members like her mother, cousins, and Kelly Rowland were at several Renaissance Tour shows last summer, Solange was only seen at one. She only posted two pictures on her Instagram Story, one of Bey with the caption,“that’s myyyy sister yallll… forever in awe” and the next was a picture of Blue Ivy on stage: “address me as blue’s auntie only.”
Some people think that Bey has been doing more of the heavy lifting when it comes to shouting out her sister. During the Frankfurt, Germany stop of the Renaissance Tour, Bey had an audience say “Happy Birthday” to her little sister and sang her name extra loud during the song “Break My Soul.”
But it could be debated that Solange is simply more private with her support, because on her birthday, she posted a bunch of beautiful pictures and videos on Instagram that featured her sister and Blue Ivy.
If you have sisters, you know the cycle of fighting over the littlest of things and getting right back together, so maybe the two are experiencing a tough spot. But one thing we’re sure about is that they will never admit it to the public.
However, there is a possibility that the distance between the two is due to a collaboration in the works for Beyoncé’s country album, set to drop next month. Fans have already been making similarities between the two artists and their dedication to country aesthetics.
