What is Bianca Lawson's net worth?
Bianca Lawson is an American actress who has a net worth of $2 million. Bianca Lawson is the daughter of actor Richard Lawson and singer/actor Denise Gordy.

Marvin Gaye & Beyonce Connection
In 1965, 14 years before Bianca was born, her mother Denise gave birth to a son. Just five days before the baby was born, Denise turned 16. It would later be revealed that singer Marvin Gaye was the boy's father. Gaye at the time of his conception (when Denise was 15) would have been 25. During her pregnancy, Marvin's wife Anna, who was roughly 42 years old, pretended to be pregnant herself when she went out in public. After the baby was born, Marvin Gaye III was adopted by Marvin and Anna. Marvin III is one of three children who inherited the rights to Marvin Gaye's estate. These heirs would later successfully sue Pharrell and Robin Thicke for copyright infringement related to the song "Blurred Lines," and unsuccessfully sue Ed Sheeran related to the song "Thinking Out Loud."
From 2015 to July 2023, Bianca's father Richard was married to Tina Knowles. Tina's children are Solange and Beyonce Knowles. So during that eight year period, Bianca's half-sibling was Marvin Gaye III and her step-sisters were Beyonce and Solange.
