NEW YORK, N.Y. --
Beyonce has a stepmother.
Her
father and former manager, Mathew Knowles, got married last Sunday. His
representative told The Associated Press on Friday that he has wed
former model Gena Charmaine Avery in Houston, Texas. The pair had been
engaged for a year and a half.
The
48-year-old Avery is a realtor. The 61-year-old Knowles guided his
daughter to superstardom with the group Destiny’s Child and later in her
solo career; she released her father as her manager in 2011.
Knowles, head of Music World Entertainment, still manages several gospel acts including Grammy-winner Le’Andria Johnson.
Knowles
and Beyonce’s mother, Tina, divorced in 2011 after 31 years of marriage
and two children — Beyonce and her sister, fellow singer Solange.
