( CM ) - The husband of R. KELLY's former publicist REGINA DANIELS claims his wife severed ties with the R+B star because of a sexual relationship the singer had with their daughter. Regina quit her longtime post in November (07) amid rumours R. Kelly - who faces 14 counts of having sex with a minor in a trial in May (08) - had embarked on an intimate romance with her then-21-year-old daughter Maxine. And now music industry veteran George Daniels has confirmed the singer's involvement with their daughter was what caused his wife to terminate her contract with Kelly. He says, "He crossed the line with my daughter. It didn't get to the extreme of that (alleged sex tape) video or else I wouldn't be here, if you know what I'm talking about." Though Maxine was of legal age, George claims Kelly still took advantage of her. He adds, "When you're 21, and if you've been there already like I've been many years ago, you're still 15 to 16 mentally. You're vulnerable." And George - who was aware of rumours of Kelly's fling with his daughter - was furious when he originally confronted the singer. He says, "He denied it. He lied to me to my face. The reason that I'm talking abut this, it's not just for me, it's not for my wife, it's not for my daughter, but it's for the public. "It's for other fathers and mothers because it doesn't have to be a superstar, it could be the dude on the corner. There are guys who sit around and give your child a couple of bucks to go to school and then wait until they get a little older, then they set that trap. See, so I'm doing this really for everyone."
