Just when we thought Beyoncé and hubby Jay-Z were about to become parents for the first time, the couple have been hit with rumours stating the rapper already has a secret son.
Long before Jigga married Bey, Star magazine has reported that the 41-year old hip-hop icon fathered a love child with Trinidad model Shenelle Scott, nine years ago.
Jerard Andrews alleges that his son, Malik Sayeed, was wrongly identified as they boy's dad and claims DNA tests prove the Empire State of Mind rapper IS the child's biological father.
Andrews told the publication: "At the time [he] was born, my son Malik thought he was his child, but they did DNA tests. It’s been determined that [the child is] Jay-Z’s baby."
He continued: "Maybe two weeks later, he called me and said, "Daddy, I got some bad news. [He’s] not my son, I said, ‘How do you know, Malik?’ He said, 'He doesn’t look anything like me!'"
"Shenelle told me that Jay-Z gave her $1 million to keep her mouth shut. My understanding is that he’s paying her child support."
Jerard added: "Shenelle took the money and bought herself a really nice house in Trinidad that the whole family lives in now."
A source also told the mag: "Malik threw [Shenelle] a baby shower and bought all this stuff to prepare for the arrival. However, after the baby was born, friends and family told him he needed to get a DNA test."
They added: "Everyone knew she was sleeping around and sleeping with Jay. There was a good chance it was his."
Star claims that Beyoncé is "well aware" that Jigga has a son, and despite being furious at first, she has come to accept the news.
Bey announced she was expecting her first child with Jay at the MTV VMAs last month, debuting her baby bump in an orange Lanvin frock.
