One user succinctly summed up everyoneโ€™s incredulity, writing online: โ€œAye what Richard Lawson was on!?โ€

The Daily Show comedian and correspondent Roy Wood Jr. even joined in on the tweets, attempting to make light of the situation: โ€œItโ€™s late enough in the evening, airplay them Richard Lawson likes to the TV and set the mood.โ€

Lawsonโ€™s account has since been deactivated.

As previously reported by The Root, this NSFW debacle comes shortly after it was announced that he and Tina Knowles were divorcing after eight years on marriage. According to court documents obtained by People on Wednesday, Knowlesโ€ cited irreconcilable differences as her reason why and requested that neither party receive spousal support. She also requested for her name to be restored to Celestine Knowles.

Since tying the knot in 2015, the couple would often post pictures and videos of each other during random outings and various escapades on social media. However, the last photo of them together was dated all the way back to March and neither of them have come out to comment on the recent news of their marriage dissolution.
