Answer 2

Actually layout gravity does not work in Relative layout so should use layout_below, layout_left_of, layout_right_of and layout_above property of Relative Layout. You can also use centerInParent, AlignParentLeft, AlignParentRight property of Relative Layout instead of gravity

@Khemraj Answer is the desired output what you need. But you need in relative layout then try below code

  <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/parent"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:layout_toLeftOf="@id/divider2"
        android:layout_toStartOf="@+id/divider2"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="Title More Text" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv2"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignEnd="@+id/tv1"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:layout_alignRight="@+id/tv1"
        android:layout_below="@+id/tv1"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="description" />


    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv3"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:layout_toEndOf="@+id/divider2"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@id/divider2"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="Title More Text" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv4"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignLeft="@id/tv3"
        android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:layout_alignStart="@+id/tv3"
        android:layout_below="@+id/tv1"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="decsription" />

    <View
        android:id="@+id/divider2"
        android:layout_width="1dp"
        android:layout_height="1dp"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:background="?android:attr/listDivider" />

</RelativeLayout>
