Almost synonymous with the name Beyonce is that of her father Mathew Knowles. Having steered both Destiny’s Child and Beyonce (as a solo star) to the top, Mathew has come to be known as one of the industry’s most recognised managers.
However, new reports are suggesting that Mathew’s increasingly controversial behaviour has caused Beyonce to cease from speaking to him, an issue not only problematic due to their personal ties, but also their business dealings.
Get the full scoop after the jump…
Via the New York Post:
Beyonce Knowles is still refusing to speak to her dad and manager, Matthew Knowles, after he fathered a love child with a woman 20 years his junior — and suits at her record label fear the rift could damage her career.
The superstar singer was horrified when it was alleged last year that Matthew had an 18-month affair with 38-year-old Alexsandra Wright and DNA tests confirmed he’d fathered her son, Nixon, while still married to Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles.
Now, sources tell Page Six that relations between Beyoncé, who is very close to her mom, and her father have reached such a low point that executives at her label, Columbia, are worried.
Matthew guided Beyoncé’s career through her days with Destiny’s Child and is still her manager.
But one music industry insider said, “Beyoncé was horrified to find out her dad cheated on her mom. She always looked up to him, and she is very close to her mom, so this has hit her really hard. She is refusing to speak to him, which is making things difficult where it comes to managing her career. Some people at Columbia now think it would be better to move him aside.”
Drama!

she is a fat irrelevant manwhore
Thats sad i hope shes doin oky and that dont effect her working on a new album yes he may not be a good person but hes one hella of a manger hes smart if she fire him i dont know how is she gonna find a manger like him and he always put her first cuse its his daughter and she bring the $$$
awe poor Bey
I would feel embarrassed if I was Beyonce too, but you have too think there is an innocent child that didn’t ask for any off this Drama
YASSSSSS
i hope that beyonce fires him i think he is the reason that most people hate her
she should hire clive davis (whitney, alicia) as her new manager
I’ve totally noticed that in all her recent interviews…she has commented on how close she is to her mother. Also, if you look at her Grammy performance this year at the end when she sings “you took her for granted” she is looking at the direction where her father is sitting in the audience. I am glad and hope Beyonce distances herself from her father. I AM A SASHA FIERCE STAN FOR LIFE, but there is so much more to Beyonce than she shows us and I thnk that is because of her father controlling her every move.
Feel so sorry for Beyonce…. her Father just can’t have enough… tsk tsk. A Happy Family has been broken by his act. & I hope Beyonce can handle it. (& not crumble like Brit parent case)
I wouldn’t be suprised if this was true. I’ve been suspecting this for quite some time. Think about it; when was the last time you actually saw these two together? Anywhere?
Beyonce has a trillionare father.
how successful she is!
rich woman!
IM KINDA ON THE FENCE WITH THIS, WHILE I THINK BEYONCE SHOULD LEAVE MATHEW ON PRINCIPLE AND STICK WITH HER MOTHER. BUSINESS WISE IT COULD BE DAMAGING AND AS I WANT A NEW ALBUM SOON IMA HAVE TO TELL BEYONCE TO STAY WITH MATTY’S CHEATING ASS LOL
CHECK OUT MY NEW ENTERTAINMENT SITE >>> http://WWW.FRESHURBANENT.CO.UK
who ever released this info is messy as s***! Lol but I’m really not surprised. It’s embarrassing..plus beyonce is so private. I’m sure she hates the fact that her family biz is out on the street. Keep ya head up bey!
BEYONDWHORE IS AN UNGRATEFUL PIECE OF RUBBISH…
AFTER ALL HIS FATHER DID FOR HER, SHE IGNORES HIM.
THIS IRRELEVANT WHO RE WILL GET WHAT SHE DESERVES.
KARMA IS A BYTCH
EVER HEARD OF THE SAYING TREAT YOUR PARENTS NICELY???
TIFF THE LADY IN YOUR AVATAR IS A SHEMALE SOCIETY LOW LIFE TRASH WHO DID INPREGENATED YOUR MUM AND YOU ARE THEIR LESBIAN DAUGHTER.
SAD BUT TRUE.
@ Freshurbanent, I am thinking along the same lines as you. I feel for Beyonce, but what Mathew’s done to ruin her family will always have it’s consequences moving forward. There is a child and like it or not, they’re siblings. Mathew will always be her father and she can’t do anything about him stepping out on Tina. She has to learn to forgive(not forget) and do what’s in their best intrest. If he’s no longer effective as her manager cut the ties, but if he’s still competent then keep him on board. He have to live with his actions regardless.
However much I hate to admit it, matthew knowles is a f****** good manager, he’s ruthless in a good way and he has made sure that the whole world knows beyonce’s name as a solo artist and not the lead of DC, if she cuts ties with him as a manager…..I dont know how her career will be affected unfortunately
I always knew that mixing family and business would come and haunt these two at some point in time
what a shame
awwww my sweet sweet beyonce, I love you so much, I wish you well, hold yah head up
You are a survivor
umm ok…
I SMELL A DOWNFALL FOR BEYAAAWNCE’S CAREER. SHE’S DONE!! WHO ELSE WOULD’VE SWAGGER JACKED ALL THOSE TRACKS AND PUT L’IL GIRL AS CO-SONGWRITER ON ALL THEM TRACKS?? YOU KNOW… THE ONES THAT MATHEW PAPA “MAFIA” KNOWLES ARM TWISTED THE ORIGINAL WRITERS AND PUT BEY DOWN FOR JOINT PUBLISHING RIGHTS AND ROYALTIES. THEM LAWSUITS ARE PRETTY MUCH A HEADS UP!! KARMA IS A B****. GO SIT DOWN BEY!!!!!!!!! THANK YO PAPA HE GOT THEM INCOME STREAMS FLOWIN IN CAUSE BEY AINT “WRITING” ANYMORE SONGS. LOL.
TRUTH!!!
Never trusted that man. But we don’t know the situation, so we can’t really speak on it.
this was expected
I don’t Believe this not one bit. We don’t know what’s going between Beyonce and her Dad. How can this mess up her career? That will NEVER happen. Beyonce is in control of her career Bigger than Ever just won 3 ASCAP Awards About to be in the FORBES LIST
Beyonce IMAGE is what they call PERFECT LOL!
First of all in order to get file for a ” Divorce” you have to be
“Separated” for a year. So Mathew & Tina wasn’t together for a while we have seen Mathew at events with Beyonce within that year “Billboard Woman of The Year” and few other places, We don’t know what the reason why Miss Tina file for a “Divorce”, could be that they just grew apart which is most likely, I’m sure it’s not over Matt having another child. Mathew was with that Woman while he was “Spearated” from Tina it doesn’t take a whole year to give birth to a child, 9 months or early. So to say Beyonce isn’t speaking to her Dad over the Birth of the New Baby isn’t True. Beyonce knew her parnets were filing for a “Divorce” It’s just that ‘WE” all were the last to know like always when it comes to Beyonce’s life.
Umm If my daddy cheated on my mama and got some other bird pregnant I wouldn’t be talking to his ass either. That’s so embarrassing. Especially for someone like her who is in the public eye. Which is why when Kelly made that smart ass comment about Mathew. I knew right away that Bey had a falling out because it had hers and Tina’s stamp of approval on it lol. Solange left a nasty tweet about her daddy on father’s day too. There was definately a falling out.
Ghetto F**
First of all Kelly also Stated that Mathew sent her Flowers for her Birthday but you missed that part uh? lmao ! Have a Seat
I’m sorry, but evey time I see “insider” or, my personal favorite, “sources”, I have to laugh especially when MediaFakeOut does it. Any who, what family did Mathew ruin? And why is it that fools on here are happy she seperating from HER FATHER? I’m guess the ones saying this must not have had a father in their lives. Also who actually believes anything the NY Post page 6 reports? Didn’t they report once upon a time about Beyonce going on vacay with her “step-son” or something like that? Lastly, no one out side of the few little negro blogs care about Beyonce’s parents.Hell! They don’t even care about Solange (as much as I like her), only Beyonce, but if they did happen to care about either 1 it would most likely be her mother since she’s was/is always in the spotlight more than Mathew. Plus people just care about mothers more than they do fathers in general (sad, but true) even though Mathews was the one that put in work.
@Blasian
Calm down, there is no need to call someone that. I swear you must be 8 yrs old. So what if Matthew sent her flowers? Does that change the fact he got a woman pregnant, that was NOT his wife. Telling someone to “Have a Seat” only makes you look foolish…
thekiddz
Yes Mathew got a woman pregnant while he was “Separated” so what’s you’re point dear?
Also looking at this pic (and many others) I can see why my cousin used to question whether Beyonce was ever Mathew’s child. I mean she has absolutley NOTHING of his. And there’s Solange who don’t look like either parent. -__- I tell ya genetics are something crazy….
It would be sad if this is true BUT it definitely does NOT mean the end of Beyonce’s career, lol really? Beyonce knows the business sides of things as well. She recorded BDAY ( her best album by far IMO) without her father even there, her father didnt even know she was in the studio recording it! I dont thin it has to do with the baby per se, just the divorce all in all.
@ AMy look at the ears LOL. Do we need to take these two to Maury lol. All jokes aside. His new baby ( from the pics i saw) doesnt look like him either and it was proven that he IS the father.
Hmmmm, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if this were true. I think cheating on your wife and having another child for your mistress if the epitome of BITCHASSNESS! In my book, Matthew is a douchebag and if Beyonce isn’t talking to him then GOOD! And I don’t think firing him as her manager would in any way mess up her career, I think he needs her more than she needs him.
I don’t feel that her career will be over. It’s Beyonce people, that name alone sells. I understand that her father has done tons for her as well as DC as a group, but Beyonce is on the level that she can take control of her career. Her family problems are her problems not ours, and I’m sure over half the people up her has just as many, if not more, problems that she has. It’s called life people, things happen, but Beyonce will overcome it.
Also I can’t believe her label is worried about her career just because she’s not talking to her manager. Damn it’s Beyonce, you would think they would have more faith in her! I guess she will have to show them the same way she showed them on “DIL” when they told her she didn’t have a single hit on the album; she had 5!
I wonder is she still wants her husband and unborn son to be like her “Daddy”(song from Dangerously in Love) cuz if so Jay Z will cheat on her and have a illegitimate child and her son too…..SMH
Very unfortunate that they won’t be able to go through this in without the world watching. I pray for their family.
@Blasian
Did you not say, “WE” all were the last to know like always when it comes to Beyonce’s life.”? The whole one year of separation is only true for certain states. Where did she file for divorce, if you know? We don’t know how long he has been unfaithful or what goes on behind closed doors. As Bee fans, we feel entitled to know her personally that we forget about the reason we love her in the first place; her music/voice (for me).
thekiddz
Houston so look it up hun you can find the count papers
Which Miss Tina already stated that “If you’re looking for a messy “Divorce” it’s not going to happen”
Like I said; to say Beyonce isn’t speaking to her Dad over the Fact he has had a Baby isn’t true . Beyonce knew her Mom & Dad were getting a “Divorce” and just like I said WE were the last to find out. What that Man did while he was “Separated” is his business. Now how this “Divorce” came about is unkown but be for sure it isn’t over Mathew having a Baby
Blasian
Well, we’ll just leave it at that. Thanks for the info. Maybe all this drama will inspire some good songs on the next album. >.<
thekiddz
NP! I’m sure it well lol
@Tiff….I agree
Who are these two in the pic???
Right : OLD GORILLA with no reaction ?
Left : Black PANDA with fake hair ?

LMAO
Obeseyonce is just a fat wannabe white woman attention seeking fake b**** anyways…….

*WHO OWNS THE THRONE?*
*YOU DO MOMMY!*
she is a pop diva who pushes boundaries.
i definately don’t choose the safe way of expressing myself.
“if you don’t like me, f* you!”
she’s a tr?? blazer, she blaze a tram??
Christina Aguilera started out as a Mouseketeer.
she is smaller than the rest of us,
and then she open the mouth…
sound bigger than us put together.
she was packaged as the pop-princess.
everything is under common control of the label which was insanely frustrating.
this whole buble gang image just was not her.
but christina rebels against her handlers and get herself “dirty”.
@Carlababy
You crazy, those are Tina’s big ears. Lmao! And newborns (especially those fresh out the womb as ‘that’ baby was) never look like anyone until I’d say about 3 months or so. To me all new borns look alike and they all look creepy like little naked mole rats. :-/
so you just completely cut out the part where beyonces rep said its completely false. Next time post the entire article.
ohh pls your ugly ass husband will do the same to you in a few years. didnt you say you want a man like daddy? well u got one..
So
@whateva
Please have a seat fellow. I’m sure you have home work from summer school to complete, so get to it!
this is none of no one’s buisness but theirs. leave them alone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hmmmmmmmm dats so sad
omg are you an idiot? can you read? did you not read the part where her father f****** cheated on her mother? be nice to your parents? how about DON’T CHEAT ON YOUR WIFE WHO YOU HAVE CHILDREN WITH? HE is the W****. Not Beyonce. Idiot.
