Tina Knowles clarified that she did not weigh in on son-in-law Jay-Z’s legal woes.

On Monday (Dec 9) a screenshot appeared to show Knowles, 70, liking an Instagram post from ABC 7 Chicago News about the lawsuit accusing her son-in-law, Jay-Z, of rape.

However, the fashion designer shared on Dec. 9 that she was recently hacked. 

“I was Hacked !” she wrote in a post shared on Instagram. “As you all know I do not play about my family. So if you see something uncharacteristic of me . Just know that it is not me !”

Knowles, 70, previously made headlines for her social media footprint in January when her Instagram account liked a post criticizing Janet Jackson’s concert ticket prices, which she later apologized for.

The music mogul, whose real name is Shawn Corey Carter, was named in the civil lawsuit that was re-filed by Texas-based attorney Tony Buzbee on Sunday.

The original complaint, which had been filed by an anonymous accuser in October, had only listed Diddy as a defendant.

The accuser, who is identified as Jane Doe, claimed she was given a drink that made her feel “woozy” and “lightheaded” before she went into a bedroom to lie down for a moment.

Shortly after, the two rappers allegedly entered the room with the Bad Boy Records founder saying, “You are ready to party?!”

The accuser said Diddy threw her “toward a wall,”leading her to fall, then “grabbed her again and threw her on the bed.”

She said Jay-Z began stripping her down “as she grew more and more disoriented” and held her down as ‘he vaginally raped’ her, while Diddy and Celebrity B watched.

“After [Jay-Z] finished, he stepped back toward the wall. Diddy then stepped forward and vaginally raped Plaintiff while Jay-Z and Celebrity B watched,” the document read.
