NEW YORK — Mathew Knowles insists he still has an amicable relationship with his daughter, Beyonce — even though she dumped him as her manager two months ago — but is alleging that people close to her have tried to destroy his reputation with allegations that he stole from her.

Knowles filed papers in a Texas court this week alleging that members of Beyonce’s camp, which he says includes her label, Columbia Records, Live Nation and her superstar husband Jay-Z’s Roc Nation, have made “negative comments about me.”

“We absolutely have not taken any money from Beyonce, and all dollars will be accounted for,” he said. “In no way have we stole money. Again, this about the people who have made these claims — they have to come into the light.”

Knowles guided his daughter’s career since she was child, first to superstardom as part of the group Destiny’s Child, and then as she continued with her blockbuster solo career. Beyonce has sold millions of records, won numerous Grammys, is a lucrative spokeswoman for different products, and has also had considerable success in film with movies like the Oscar-winning “Dreamgirls” and the movie “Obsessed.”
