Fantasia Barrino‘s father, Joseph Barrino went off on his son-in-law, Kendall Taylor (right), accusing him of staging a re-proposal to Fantasia during a recent concert.

Kendall, wearing a white suit, walked out on stage with a bouquet of roses and asked his wife to marry him again.

Fantasia and Kendall were married in 2015 and share daughter Keziah, 4. The “I Feel Beautiful” singer also has two children, Zion and Dallas, from previous relationships.

Fantasia said Kendall was the first man to tell her she’s beautiful.

But Joseph called Kendall’s re-proposal a “publicity stunt” and he said Kendall is manipulating Fantasia to hide alleged stolen funds.

In a recent livestream video, Joseph said, “I love my daughter, she’s my daughter and I want all her fans to keep her in prayer.”

He added: “That walking out [on stage to re-propose to Fantasia], that’s a publicity stunt… I want y’all to love her and pray for her. The work that I put in with my kids at a young age, I dare not let somebody that I know manipulates.”

Joseph said he was told by Fantasia’s former “financial person” that they ran up on Kendall because some money went missing. Joseph said there was no paper trail on Kendall’s part to show where the money went.

Joseph accused Kendall of firing the financial person. “He got her fired.”

Kendall responded to the theft allegations in a video on Wednesday, saying he ran his own “multi-million dollar company” before he met Fantasia. He denied stealing Fantasia’s money to finance his business operations.

“I asked for the prenup,” he said in the video. “A prenup wasn’t put on me, I asked for it because I had business partners that I needed to protect and I needed to make sure that her family knew that I had no intentions of coming after anything that she established before she met me.”
