Beyoncé is notoriously private, but her mom, Tina Knowles, recently shared a rare interaction of the two of them at home while cheering on Team USA during the Paris Olympics.
The superstar, who lives in a mansion in Malibu with her husband Jay Z and their three children, Blue Ivy, 12, and seven-year-old twins Sir and Rumi, could be heard in the background of a video shared by her mom while they watched and supporting Olympic champion Simone Biles in the gymnastics final.
Tina captioned the post: "Me and the Carter girls when Simone Biles our homegirl won!"

Beyoncé's distinctive voice was unmistakable as she uttered in the background: "C'mon Simone. Come on." As the screen then showed Simone receiving her result – which was a gold medal – Beyoncé and Tina erupted in cheers and "Yeah!" before Tina was then heard saying: "Go girl!"

The 'Crazy In Love' singer, 42, has been backing Simone and Team USA all the way. Not only did she star in a campaign video supporting the Olympians, but she also lent her voice to a video on social media in support and praise of Simone's incredible journey.
In the video, which showed clips of Simone practising and winning multiple awards, the beloved singer narrated: "Let's talk about power. Because, really, that's what this story's about."
She continued: "Physical power: its beauty, its wonder. The way it never stops amazing you. Then there’s spiritual power, the kind that really matters. The power you can't see, only sense. The power you need in those moments when life goes a little sideways on you. And, of course, lasting power.
"Only a select few know what it feels like to get to the top and stay there. And, somehow, keep getting better."

The video also featured a soundtrack of 'Just For Fun' which appears on her latest album, Cowboy Carter.
"Simone Biles inspires me and I’m pretty sure she inspires you too," the mother-of-three continued. "Such confidence in her strength, such beauty in her power, such a great lesson in her story.
"Brilliance, it doesn’t come easy. Gold can be a hell of a journey. And the greatest of all time is willing to put that title on the line every time she walks out there. Take your best shot, world. She's ready for you."
