R&B singer and actress Fantasia delivered a lengthy and explicit Instagram post directed at her father over the weekend after she got engaged to her longtime boyfriend-turned-fiancé.
The Grammy-winning vocalist, born Fantasia Barrino, shared a post that publicly rebuke her father, Joseph Barrino, after he criticized her husband, Kendall Taylor. The dispute stems from Taylor’s Valentine’s Day proposal to Fantasia during a concert stop in Houston, a moment that quickly circulated online.
Joseph Barrino dismissed the onstage proposal as “fake cry bull crap.”
He also accused Taylor of mishandling money connected to Fantasia’s business operations. Those allegations sparked debate across social media and fueled speculation about tension within the singer’s inner circle.
Fantasia responded by posting her father’s mugshot from a past domestic violence arrest and addressing him directly. “I wasn’t going to do this but this has gotten out of hand,” she wrote. “Joseph Barrino I can’t even call you Dad or a Father, you are a donor.”
She claimed she and her mother had protected his reputation for years. “We have covered for you long enough,” Fantasia continued. “Now you have come for my king.”
The singer forcefully denied claims of financial misconduct. “How can someone steal if I, Fantasia Taylor, am the CEO and my King Kendall Taylor is the President of all our companies,” she wrote.

In framing their marriage as both romantic and entrepreneurial, Fantasia positioned the couple as equal partners in love and business.
Her message did not signal reconciliation. “Tonight I shall help you finish the war you started,” she declared, drawing a firm boundary.
What began as a public display of devotion has transformed into a family rift unfolding in real time. For Fantasia, the issue extends beyond a proposal. It touches loyalty, transparency, and legacy.
In an era when celebrity family disputes often spill onto timelines, Fantasia chose direct confrontation over silence. Her stance remains unwavering.
She stands beside Kendall Taylor and defends her empire without apology.
