Brian McKnight’s Controversial Decision to Not Claim His Biological Children

Brian McKnight’s Controversial Decision to Not Claim His Biological Children Sparks Outrage

Renowned R&B singer Brian McKnight has stirred up controversy after revealing that he no longer claims his oldest four biological children – Brian Jr., Niko, Briana, and Clyde. In a recent Instagram Q&A session, McKnight defended his decision, stating that he believes some relatives are “pure evil” and that his children are the “product of sin.”

The 17-time Grammy nominee faced backlash from fans who accused him of going against God and disowning his children. McKnight responded by stating that he did not raise his children, their mothers did, and that he believes God wasn’t referring to children born out of sin in the Bible.

This revelation comes after years of public feuding between McKnight and his eldest children. Last October, he made headlines for legally changing his name to match his newborn son’s, despite already having a son named Brian McKnight Jr. The move was met with criticism on social media, with many calling McKnight’s actions cruel and self-hating.

McKnight’s eldest son, Brian McKnight Jr., also spoke out against his father’s decision, calling it a display of self-hate and mental illness. The rift between McKnight and his children remains unclear, with the singer previously referring to them as “entitled.”

Despite the controversy, McKnight maintains that he has never missed a day of child support and has always been there for his children with advice, whether they took it or not. The situation has sparked outrage and disappointment among fans, with many hoping for reconciliation and peace among the family.
