DNA Test Confirms Beyonce Has a New Half-Brother

Mathew KnowlesA DNA test has confirmed rumors that Beyonce's dad and manager, Mathew Knowles, has fathered a son with his mistress Alexandra Wright. Wright filed a paternity suit against Knowles in a Los Angeles Superior Court in October, claiming that she had an 18-month affair with the music manager while he was still married to his wife Tina Knowles.

Although Knowles initially denied involvement with Wright, he agreed to take a paternity test to put the rumors to rest. And when Wright gave birth to her son Nixon in February, a judge granted her $8,200 in monthly temporary child support, plus the additional $10,000 she received in January for immediate medical expenses. According to TMZ, now that the blood relation has been confirmed, Knowles and Wright will appear in court again to settle on child support payments.

Knowles and his ex-wife Tina announced their divorce last year, after 29 years of marriage. The two conceded that it was an amicable separation, despite the apparent infidelity.

I agree with the blogger that said Beyonce needs to bump him off her payroll. that's why he can afford $8200.00 per month. He is a coward and although he had a lot to do with beyonce career but you hurt my mother, it is on. no more free rides.

Jeeesh! Cant believe how many people out there actually blame this on "Hollywood" and "Stardom" when after all it is the atypical behavior of any man in general that hooks up with the "village slut pig."

And this is news, YYYYYYYYYYY, because he has a famous daughter, he is just another man who cheated on his wife and has a baby with his mistress. The news ho's should be more concerned with whats going on in the nation's capital with the republicans insighting riots. Innocent people getting bricks with notes thrown through their windows, fuel lines being cut to folks homes. Racism is not dead, its alive and being fueled by the so called men and women the public elected to office. Just because they didnt get their way, they want to act like street thugs. Now you see just what kind of trash is really in our government. They are not above anything, obviously. All they are trying to do is make sure they get voted back into office and people contribute to their campaigns. The sad thing is the people who agreed with them will do just that, now how blind and stupid are they not to know that they are just being used. Anyone who believes in and listen to Sarah Palin, really needs to seek some serious, extended professional psychological help. Until McCain chose her to be his running mate no one had ever heard of her. She cant even keep her own household straight, so how the hell she gonna talk about anyone else.
