Meanwhile, the singer has admitted in a new interview that she finds it 'difficult' to work with her family sometimes.

The singer's father Matthew Knowles used to be her manager before they parted ways earlier this year. Her mother Tina also works closely with her as her stylist.

Speaking to UK's More! magazine, she said: 'I'm fortunate to have my family.

'You have to imagine, going to these foreign places all of the time, it gets lonely, and when I see my family it doesn't seem like I'm away because they are my home.

'But it does get difficult sometimes. My mother and I work so well together and we agree. Well, 99 per cent of the time'

Asked about that other 1 per cent, she said: 'The 1 per cent? We're human. And sometimes we go back and forward but it never lasts.

'I'm lucky because I can leave and I know everything's going to be fine and great because my mother's there taking care of everything. And like I say, we always agree.

'Now my father, on the other hand, we disagree a lot more, but it's usually business.'
