Beyoncé's father was reportedly slapped with a second paternity suit after a 30-year-old woman made claims that Mathew Knowles fathered her young daughter. According to Buzzfeed, TaQoya Branscomb claims in 2010 she found out she was pregnant with Knowles' baby, which is around the same time Tina Knowles filed for divorce.
According to court documents, the former lingerie model wants Knowles, 63, to take a DNA test to prove the little girl is his child. Branscomb is also seeking child support and reimbursement for attorney fees.
Knowles, who is the father to singers Beyoncé and Solange, previously acknowledged that he had an affair and fathered a love child with actress Alexsandra Wright. The affair resulted in Tina Knowles filing for divorce after 30 years of marriage.
Last year, Wright made headlines when she accused Knowles of skipping out on his child support payments. During an interview with In Touch magazine, Wright said she and her son, Nixon, were having financial issues and were considering moving into a homeless shelter.
She also told the magazine that no one from Beyoncé's family had offered to help.
"Nixon deserves to know his family, and I hope one day he will meet his sister Beyoncé," she told the magazine. "I can't imagine how Beyoncé feels knowing she has a homeless brother. I know if I were in the same position, I would reach out. Maybe she is too busy."
According to TMZ, in February 2013 Knowles was ordered to pay $12,000 a month in child support to Wright but that figure was reduced to $2,485 after Knowles said his income had drastically changed in recent years due to Beyoncé firing him as her manager.
"He is my father for life and I love my dad dearly," the "Drunk In Love" singer said in a statement at the time. "I am grateful for everything he has taught me."
