*Star magazine recently interviewed a man about the one-time love triangle between his son, his son’s model girlfriend and rap mogul Jay-Z — allegedly.
It has long been rumored that Jay-Z fathered a child nine years ago with Trinidadian model Shenelle Scott. But a new twist claims she originally tried to convince her then boyfriend Malik Sayeed that the baby was his – only to have the scheme backfire and result in Scott earning a million dollars in hush money.
Jerald Andrews, the father of Malik Sayeed, now tells Star exclusively that “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.”
A source told Star that while Beyonce was initially livid about the secret son, she’s stood by her husband. The boy reportedly closely resembles Jay-Z, who is said to be paying Shenelle child support.

Malik, whose name was originally listed on the boy’s birth certificate, came to find out about the child’s real paternity, a source told Star.
“Malik threw [Shenelle] a baby shower and bought all this stuff to prepare for the arrival,” the source said. “However, after the baby was born, friends and family told him he needed to get a DNA test. Everyone knew she was sleeping around and sleeping with Jay.”
Andrews told Star: ”There was a good chance it was his. 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!’”
After undergoing a DNA test that showed Jay-Z is the father, Malik kicked Shenelle out of his house, while Jay-Z made arrangements for mother and son to go back to Trinidad, where they now live comfortably on the rapper’s dime.
“Shenelle told me that Jay-Z gave her $1 million to keep her mouth shut,” Jerald tells Star. “My understanding is that he’s paying her child support. Shenelle took the money and bought herself a really nice house in Trinidad that the whole family lives in now.”
Jerald told Star that Shenelle has told him her current relationship with the rapper “is amicable.”
“She says he’s a good father and he has a lot of interest in [the boy],” he told Star. “It was a big old mess at one time, but I think once they resolved the issue of fatherhood, of paternity, I think things started to level off.”
It has long been rumored about Jay having a child before he met Bey or maybe after he started dating Bey who knows, seriously is this really news???
this news is very old, so old that the kid should be at least 40 years old (LoL)!! lastly, not that I give a shit but, at least old boy is supporting him, though emotional and physically being there . . . . . . . .work wonders, he should take a page from Diddy (ain’t no fan of his either but he appears to be a good father)
Yeah…this is OLD. But I really don’t know what secret is? Why is it so under wraps that he has a child?? He ain’t the first and he won’t be the last to have a child out of wedlock or for whatever reason he was hiding it…
Hey EUR, this is rather odd reporting.
Other outlets are reporting that Andrews (guy who thought he was the father) retracted his initial claims that DNA proved that Jay was the father. Andrews is also saying that he never said that jay was the father and that it was simply reported on the internet as truth.
There doesn’t seem to be any evidence concluding that Jay is the father beyond what Andrews supposedly said. Jay is still denying this years later so I’m not sure I get how he’s paying child support for something he’s denying as of y’day.
This whole whole thang smells like…BS, to me. 1st the baby was with “Free”, now with “this” chick! 2nd….WTF is dude, for that rag to give a shyt about, to “grant” an interview WITH!? 3rd…”now” dude has….”backpedalled”!?? Either waaaaaay, this nig has a fkn “deathwish”, & this is a weak azz “rumor”, & nothing more!! So….”kick rocks”! Next!??
People are soooo dumb. So when does a man taking a DNA test prove that ANOTHER man is the Father of a child. It says that the guy took a DNA test that proved Jay Z was the father, WTF, How do you do that? If I take a DNA test that only tells about me, not another person. This is so stupid. Im so happy for Bey and Jay, it aint easy being the 700 million dollar couple. Get it! #BlackExcellence….
