Gladys Knight’s Son Alleges Her Husband Is Pushing Her to Perform Despite Health Concerns
Gladys Knight’s son, Shanga Hankerson, has accused her husband and manager, William McDowell, of pressuring the 82-year-old singer to continue performing despite concerns about her wellbeing. Hankerson said he fears Knight is being overworked and alleged that the situation amounts to elder abuse. McDowell has maintained that Knight wants to keep performing and that her schedule was being reviewed. Knight recently said she plans to complete her remaining shows this year before moving on to other projects. She is scheduled to perform three more concerts next month before her tour ends in California in November.
