BEYONCÉ CAUGHT IN DUI HORROR!
COPS CHARGED BOOZY MOM PUT LITTLE SIS AT RISK
BEYONCÉ has been dragged into a DUI nightmare after her kid sister was put in harm’s way by her boozedup mom, according to police documents!
The National ENQUIRER has learned Bey’s nine-year-old half-sister, Koi, was riding in a car when her mother, Taqoya Branscomb, was busted by Los Angeles cops for driving under the influence. Former stripper Taqoya, 36, was arrested in March 2019 and charged with four misdemeanors, including DUI, driving without a valid driver’s license, and child abuse under circumstances or conditions likely to cause great bodily injury or death, according to police files. Records show her blood alcohol level was over twice the legal limit when she was driving with Koi, whose daddy is Beyoncé’s father, Mathew Knowles. “Beyoncé doesn’t have direct contact with Koi, but of course she’s concerned about her safety, and this incident does not put Taqoya’s parenting in a good light,” said a source close to the star, whose dad was battling cancer at the time of the incident. The arrest made things “stressful” for the star, 38, and her 68-year-old dad, the source said.
Initially, Taqoya pleaded not guilty to all counts, then struck a plea deal and was found guilty of DUI, records show. The remaining counts were dismissed. She was given probation and ordered to take 26 parenting classes, which legal records indicate she finished. Taqoya has had a rocky relationship with Mathew, who was divorced by Beyoncé’s mom, Tina, in 2011. He’s never publicly acknowledged Koi as his child, but a court-ordered DNA test proved he’s the father. A judge ordered him to fork over nearly $71,000 in back child support.
Despite government records, Taqoya said the incident never happened and reports of her arrest are “inaccurate.”
