14 DAY TRIAL // Beyonce and Jay Z went in major damage control model a few days ago when, after the Solange vs. Jay scandal / elevator attack, they posed together like one big happy family, and Beyonce posted the photo to her social media account. That’s just a cover up, it seems.
The first “clue” that the marriage of one of the most successful couples in showbiz is going down the drain also came from social media, as photos confirmed that Beyonce was having her wedding band tattoo lasered off.
Usually, when you get a tattoo, especially one with such a meaning, you get it for life – and you only consider having it removed when all signs point to the brevity of the reason you got it for. That is to say, you don’t have a wedding tattoo removed unless you think the relationship is over or close to over.
Now, Life & Style magazine claims to have it on very good authority that all romance between Jay and Bey really is dead. The “big happy family” photo from Beyonce was only meant to hide the fact that she is on the very verge of a $900 million (€660.3 million) divorce because, always the shrewed businesswoman, she is still trying to protect her image.
That might still work for her for a few more weeks, but all those close to her already know that she and Jay are done: they fight all the time in the most violent manner, there’s been a lot of cheating on both parts and name-calling as well.
The only thing left standing of their marriage is this fairytale façade.
“Beyonce is extremely careful about her image, and everything she does is thought out and planned. She is obsessed with them appearing as the perfect family,” an insider explains.
Behind closed doors, though, it’s been hell. “It’s been really rocky for them. There is trouble in paradise. Divorce is inevitable — and Beyonce’s only option,” another source goes on to say.
Beyonce and Jay Z have a child together, daughter Blue Ivy, and an estimated joint fortune close to $1 billion (€733.6 million). In case they do end up getting a divorce, if they didn’t sign a prenup before tying the knot, the divorce proceedings won’t be smooth because there’s simply too much at stake.
Citing the same unnamed sources, the e-zine claims the A-list couple is headed towards the biggest and ugliest divorce in showbiz in years. Where this kind of money is involved – and no prenup to protect either side – this goes without saying.
