Twins effect
BEYONCE and Jay Z's daughter Blue Ivy is a “very good” big sister to their twins.
The Formation singer and her 47-year-old husband welcomed their little ones into the world at the beginning of last month and, although Blue has had her parents all to herself for the past five years, she's adjusted well to the family's new arrivals.
Beyonce's mother Tina Knowles told Entertainment Tonight: “(Blue is) very proud and excited. She's a good big sister, she really is. She cares for them a lot.”
The Internet went wild last week when Beyonce took to her Instagram account to reveal an image of herself cradling the one-month-old twins and revealed that she and Jay Z had named them Sir Carter and Rumi.
She wrote: “Sir Carter and Rumi 1 month today.”
Although eyebrows were raised over the pair's choice of name for their babies, Beyonce’s mum has said the reason behind the monikers will be revealed in due course.
Beyonce's latest post comes after Jay Z admitted recently that his marriage “wasn't totally built on 100% truth”.
The rapper – who married Beyonce nine years ago – admitted the hardest thing he's ever done is having to face up to potential difficulties in his union and try to work them out.
He said: “This is my real life. I just ran into this place and we built this big, beautiful mansion of a relationship that wasn't totally built on the 100% truth, and it starts cracking. Things start happening that the public can see.
“Then we had to get to a point of, 'OK, tear this down and let's start from the beginning ... It's the hardest thing I've ever done.”
Jay Z’s new album 4:44 features an apology from him to Beyonce, and speculation is rife that it is a direct reference to claims she hinted to him for being unfaithful with “Becky with the good hair” on her visual LP Lemonade.
In another song, he also appears to refer to the infamous Met Gala 2014 incident in which he was attacked in a lift by sister-in-law Solange Knowles.
He raps: “You egged Solange on, knowing all along all you had to say you was wrong.” – Bang Showbiz
