Tina Knowles remembers Beyoncé standing up to bullies: 'Proud of her'

Tina Knowles recalled how she mentioned Beyonce, Solange and Kelly Rowland in an emotional interview.

On her Instagram, the 70-year-old mother talked about her favorite memories of her daughters when they were little, calling them “three girls.”

She recalled: “Beyoncé was very shy and she got bullied a little bit, but the day she stood up for someone, she didn't stand up for herself, she did it for them. I'm getting emotional talking about it. “I just couldn’t have been more proud of her.”

Tina, who shares Beyoncé and Solange with ex-husband Matthew Knowles, then revealed her second daughter's fondest memory.

“Solange, I was signing a petition at school, I was only in fifth grade and I was out getting petitions signed. That’s why she has always been an activist,” she recalled.

Earlier this month, Tina, who often refers to Kelly as her third daughter, recalled in Today with Hoda and Jenna how he came to live with the family at the age of 11, stating, “That's my baby.”

“Kelly was always that girl who tried to protect everyone. I have a memory of her with her best friend Barbara and her as a mediator and just a little peacemaker,” he shared.
