Manager of Destiny’s Child and father of Beyoncé, Mathew Knowles, has revealed that he is still hopeful for “one last album” from the trio.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Mr Knowles spoke of the possibility of a reunion for the iconic group. The group’s manager detailed that the decision would be one “that the ladies would have to make”, but that he would “certainly support” a return.
“I would certainly, certainly support that decision as I still manage Destiny’s Child. I would love to see that as well,” he told Entertainment Tonight.
“I think the fans will be just overjoyed, overwhelmed.”
“And hopefully they do one last time in their career. Hopefully they give us one last album. Who knows? You never know. You never say it can’t happen. Because this is entertainment. A lot of things can happen,” he added.

During the course of his interview, Beyoncé’s father also detailed how the plan for the members of Destiny’s Child always involved branching off into solo careers.
“We strategized five years out in the beginning of these ladies’ career, where they will be, which is why they did their solo projects. Doing Destiny’s Child, that was not happenstance or luck, that was strategy that each one of them will build their own unique following,” he explained.
“And their own unique base, come back together, Destiny’s Child, go back out as solo artists. That was all strategy.”
Although the trio- comprised of Beyoncé Knowles, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams- officially split in 2006, they most recently reunited at Beyoncé’s now-iconic 2018 Coachella headline show. ‘Lose My Breath’, ‘Say My Name’ and ‘Soldier’ were performed during the mini-reunion.
Meanwhile, Beyoncé’s long-awaited Renaissance tour is currently underway. Having just performed at Sunderland’s Stadium Of Light on Tuesday, May 23rd, the 41-year-old is due to perform at Paris’s Stade De France this Friday, May 26th.
Although the ‘Cuff It’ singer has several shows line-up in the UK, she will not be crossing the waters to perform in Dublin this time around.
