Are the music stars Beyoncé (41) and Jay-Z (53) still a happy couple even after 15 years of marriage? A report by “Bild am Sonntag” now causes irritation and claims that the marriage only exists on paper. Accordingly, the two would be stuck in a crisis. A family friend told the newspaper that the two would sleep in separate bedrooms and that finances were the only reason that the divorce had not yet come about.
Jay-Z in particular feels restricted in the marriage, and the three children Blue Ivy (11) and the twins Rumi and Sir (5) would not change that. In contrast, Beyoncé feels pressured professionally by her husband and manager Jay-Z. She doesn’t want to push her music career as much, but want to take a more relaxed approach to the future and take care of the children more.
In the summer of last year, cheating rumors arose that Jay-Z is said to have cheated on his wife. In her song “Alien Superstar”, Beyoncé apparently comments on the speculation. “I’m number one. I’m the only one. Don’t waste your time competing with me. There’s nobody in the world like me. I’m crazy, contradictory, make him addicted.”
Beyoncé and Jay-Z met around 2000 and have been dating since 2002 at the latest. The wedding took place in 2008. In 2012 they became parents for the first time, in 2017 the twins followed. Although they are considered a model couple in the US public, their love has always been in the headlines. Jay-Z affairs were often assumed. Officially, however, the two never comment on such rumors.
