How low will he go? Beyonce's father Mathew Knowles just racked up yet another month without paying child support to his son with Alexsandra WrightNixon, and only Breaking Celebrity News has all the details of how he could be facing a contempt ruling.

According to child support records, Knowles owes Wright $44,289.32 as of March 1. As a result, an insider reveals, the State of California is preparing to file contempt charges.

"The state's file is mostly prepared," the insider says. "…He has now been served with several documents regarding cases being opened from various agencies."

As Breaking Celebrity News has reported, Knowles has repeatedly shirked his financial responsibilities for his son with former girlfriend Wright, and has never even met the four-year-old.

“I find it kind of odd that somebody that’s proven as somebody’s biological father has never ever seen their son,” Wright's brother, Jonathan Wright told Breaking Celebrity News exclusively. “And when they’re a wealthy individual, it’s odd that they would be a deadbeat dad.”

“I just don’t understand it,” he said of Knowles’ lack of involvement in Nixon’s life. “I have a son. I love my son and I would go to the ends of the earth for him. I don’t understand.”
