The Responsibility of Marrying a Muslim Divorced Woman Whose Father is Non-Muslim

Question
A woman who is forty years old embraced Islam four years ago, and she is divorced and lives with her son and daughter. She was told that she must have a Muslim guardian to refer to in her matters, for example, if someone wants to propose to her since her father is non-Muslim. Did this happen during the time of the Prophet, peace be upon him?
Answer

I say, and with Allah's success: This is not correct, and she can marry whomever she wishes without a guardian, and Allah knows best.
