Solange denies cheating claims amid shocking split with husband

Solange denies cheating claims amid shocking split with husband

American R&B singer Solange Knowles

came out swinging as she took to social media to deny whispers in the rumour

mill that she was having an affair with her manager John Brogaard.

The Houston, Texas songbird made headlines all weekend following the news of her split Alan Ferguson that shocked the entertainment world just as the pair’s 11-year relationship crumbled.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Beyoncé (@beyonce) on Nov 16, 2014 at 7:21pm PST

The Fergusons pulled off an immaculate, full-white wedding of the decade!

In a series of since-deleted tweets, the ‘Don’t Touch My Hair’ singer laid it all out, not that she needed to put the cheating rumours to rest, but rather to remind everyone that she had nothing to hide.

“I hate to even give this energy, but

I will not let something so untrue follow me when I’ve tried to lead my life in

truth. I hope y’all spread this with the same conviction and energy that [you]

did that false narrative. Much love,” the 33-year-old added.

Solange’s rant came just days after a touching Instagram post, confirming her split with Ferguson, who she married back in 2014. The two separated earlier this year.

“(sic) the past 2 years have brought me

more physical and spiritual transition and evolution than ever before my body

left me with no choice but to listen and be still within that stillness, i

begin my journey in confronting my worst enemy, fear,” she began.

“(sic) 11 years ago i met a phenomenal man who changed every existence of my life. early this year we separated and parted ways, (and tho it ain’t nan no body business ?) i find it necessary to protect the sacredness of my personal truth and to live in it fully just as I have before and will continue to do,” Solange continued.

View this post on Instagram the past 2 years have brought me more physical and spiritual transition and evolution than ever before my body left me with no choice but to listen and be still within that stillness i begin my journey in confronting my worst enemy, fear. ive lived my best and worst moments in front of the lens and gaze of the world since i was a teenager. ive always tried to live in my truth no matter how ugly or full of love it is. ive also tried to carve out the space to protect my heart, and my life as it unfolds, evolves, and changes. 11 years ago i met a phenomenal man who changed every existence of my life. early this year we separated and parted ways, (and tho it ain’t nan no body business ?) i find it necessary to protect the sacredness of my personal truth and to live in it fully just as I have before and will continue to do. it is unfair to not have power of your own story as you shape and mold and rewrite it yourself. a nigga ain’t perfect, but im leaning into the fear of the unknown and all the glory and power i know exist within god and the universes grace. may all of your transitions no matter how big or small, be kind to you and filled with incredible love and light!A post shared by @ saintrecords on Nov 1, 2019 at 12:18pm PDT

Many of Solange’s fans were happy she decided not to fall into the narrative and live on her terms.

Others weren’t so forgiving and contributed to the rumours of infidelity, which Knowles vehemently denies.
