decompose()

Tag.decompose() removes a tag from the tree, then completely destroys it and its contents:

markup = '<a href="http://example.com/">I linked to <i>example.com</i></a>'
soup = BeautifulSoup(markup)
a_tag = soup.a
 
soup.i.decompose()
 
a_tag
# <a href="http://example.com/">I linked to</a>
