Getting married at 17 and divorced by 21 gave Knowles a great amount of perspective on life.

GIVING IT ANOTHER TRY

Sadly, their marriage was over just as quickly as it had blossomed into something so special. After 3 years of marriage, the couple ended up getting divorced.

They might have put an end to their union, but that didn't stop them from maintaining a good relationship even after their divorce and they continued co-parenting their son, Daniel Julez Smith, together.

Getting married at 17 and divorced by 21 gave Knowles a great amount of perspective on life. So when she decided to marry her second husband, Alan Ferguson, she thought it would last.

At 28, Knowles walked down the aisle for the second time. Her son, then 10 years old, was also in attendance along with her family.

Things were looking great for the duo, but in 2019, their marriage came tumbling down. The couple ended up parting ways. They did not have any kids together.

After their split, fans were left scratching their heads about what might have gone wrong. Some assumed that Knowles' health condition might have played a part in the downfall of their union while others debated that their significant age gap was to blame.
