That's honestly why people need to let go of that "one that got away" nonsense. If they married someone else for that long he should have moved on already. Your not the same person you were when you were young so he wouldn't even know who she really is.

[@latoyahogan8428]

The grass isn't always greener. Plus maybe she had not fully recovered for the divorce of Matthew. Just because they hurt you, doesn't mean you are over them. It's a grieving period. They were together over 30 years. I Love doesn't go away over night.

First of all a man should be able to take constructive criticism not gonna get upset about it because I know that He's been to emotional and he needs to get over that

[@Friends46488]

​@maryhall3635 Hello Maryhall. I've read millions of comments on different videos about Tina being disrespectful. I'm one who thinks hard and deeply about things, and yet I couldn't help but feel the same way you feel. She's an opinionated and strong woman, and sometimes people misconstrue that. I felt that this guy was just toooooo sensitive. If a man will get upset about something so little like that, then he needs a lot of growing up to do. On the other hand, maybe they already had serious issues going on, so any little thing was going to get him so irritated like it seemed he was. At any rate, I don't think Tina disrespected him on that interview. Just my 2 cents.

She seems to me like she thinks she’s better than him. She seems like she never really loved him passionately and that he should be happy that she would breathe on him. That’s just the vibe I get. She also seems like she can be a mess. Beyoncé always said in interviews how much her mama did not play with her growing up. Now i see where Solange gets it from.

[@ShaeNik]

She very well could have married him because she was his dream girl. The idea is sweet but Immature. Tina definitely put herself on a platform and shows it. She has issues she needs to iron out.

[@annettelong2143]

Richard was a rebound marriage. Richard probably wanted a wife and not socialite chasing around A listers and Beyonce tours. That probably wasn't his thing. In the beginning it was just them then started being a socialite.
