They may be one of the best-loved and most famous couples in the world, but there's allegedly trouble in power couple Beyoncé and Jay-Z's paradise. According to reports, the couple's marriage is on the rocks, and they're staying together to protect their business interests.
Together for over 15 years, Jay-Z put a ring on Beyonce's finger in 2008. But the wedded bliss didn't last long: this year, the marriage of the most powerful couple in the music industry began to deteriorate.
After the rumors that Jay-Z had an affair with Rihanna, everything seemed to point to an impending split, but it didn't happen. They continue to live together and even moved to a new home.
Separate bedrooms!
They may share a new home, but they don't share the same bedroom. In fact, their three-year old daughter Blue Ivy's room is in the middle of both parents' bedrooms, according to the shocking statements a source close to the beautiful 34-year old singer shared with Radar Online." Jay-Z and Beyonce each have their own bedrooms. They are on opposite sides of a long hallway with Blue Ivy’s room in between them," the insider said.
Millionaire divorce
According to the same source, they won't hold this fake marriage for too long, as they just can't bear each other. They are arguing and fighting all the time.
But they're trying to keep the marriage together because of business. If they move to divorce, the division of assets will be an multi-million dollar enterprise. Additionally, if the brand Mr and Mrs Carter folds, they will both lose a huge fortune. Of course, there is still Blue Ivy, their only daughter, who will celebrate her fourth birthday next month and would likely be the most harmed if a split formally takes place.
Despite all the speculation of a split, Jay-Z celebrated his 46th anniversary on December 4, and Beyoncé's mom, Tina Knowles, didn't miss the chance to congratulate her son-in-law. "Happy Birthday to my handsome, brilliant, loving son. The son I never I had, but I have now," Tina wrote on her Instagram.
