Mums the word! One year after the infamous elevator throw down during New York’s Met Gala after party, Jay Z and Beyoncé seem happily married by all appearances – but are they?
Beyoncé’s cousin, Shanica Knowles, shed some light on what’s been going on behind the scenes for the power couple.
“They don’t even mention the elevator incident anymore,” she told Heat magazine in a recent interview. “It hasn’t been spoken about and everyone has moved on from it.”
“Despite all the rumors over the past year, her and Jay have remained united and worked on things behind closed doors,” she added.
Shanica also claims that Jay Z and Solange have put their differences aside, if only for the sake of Beyoncé.
“It’s hard really to know how Jay and Solange feel about each other, she explained. “Whatever tension there is between them is very much hidden.”
But an anonymous source close to the family says their “happy” marriage is not all it’s cracked up to be, mostly thanks to their business empire.
“Somewhere along the way, their marriage has also become a business deal,” they told heat. “They’re joint investors in Tidal, they’re making a joint album and I think they’re announcing another joint tour, which will happen in 2016/2017.”
The source added: “They’re tied into so many deals and contracts, they can’t just go their separate ways. Yes, they’re going on all these public dates and she’s Instagramming their ‘perfect’ holidays, but the reality is, their lives can be quite separate, and like any other couple, if they argue, they’ll sometimes sleep in separate bedrooms.”
Shanica, however, shares that the couple still hopes to expand their family and give little Blue Ivy a sibling.
“Bey is desperate for another baby,” she said. “Blue Ivy is definitely ready to be a big sister!”
We can’t wait for B to be with child again. Now that she has her website we know there are going to be some amazing photos of this pregnancy.
