The National Enquirer reports that Beyonce is on the verge of firing her manager … who also happens to be her dad.

Amid allegations he had an extramarital relationship that’s resulted in a paternity suit, Matthew Knowles has supposedly angered his superstar daughter enough for her to consider cutting ties.

A supposed “source” tells the Enquirer “the Grammy-winning singer believes it might be time to separate him from her professional life.” “Beyonce says a big part of being successful and happy is being focused,” the “source” continued, “And she can’t do that when she has to deal with her father’s antics.”

So is Beyonce really planning to can him?

A rep for Beyonce tells Gossip Cop, “we haven’t heard a thing about that yet.” And while we aren’t sure how delicate this is, we’re a bit skeptical that Beyonce plans to fire her dad.
