Reports surfaced years ago that Beyonce and her father were feuding, but Knowles -- who managed Destiny's Child -- told ET at the time that there was nothing but love between them.
"These dangerous rumors defame my family name," he told ET in 2015. "They have no validity and hold no merit."
"There are many other important topics needing America's attention," he added. "No one needs more unnecessary negativity. Media like this needs to get on higher ground. I, for one, am focusing on lectures and seminars that help people achieve something positive and achieve better lives."
