Almost a week after the birth of the Carter twins,” the 65-year old, Mathew Knowles took to his Instagram on Sunday and posted a picture of a celebratory balloon-covered card that read: “Happy Birth day to the twins! Love, Grand dad.” This good news did not go too well with Beyonce’s fans, who were left angry over her secretive nature – as if they have a right to know. The private couple of Beyonce and Jay Z welcomed a boy and a girl on June 13th at Ronald Reagan UCLA medical Hospital, an anonymous source said. When she actually gave birth still remains a lingering question among her fan base.
Well, the 35-year old songstress and the 47-year old rapper may have their reasons for being private. In one video clip, recorded after her miscarriage in 2011, the singer said, “So people look at celebrities with all the money and fame but I am human, I cry, I get scared, I get nervous.” Beyonce expressed her emotions over her loss during her HBO documentary, Life is but a dream.
“About 2 years ago, I was pregnant for the first time, I heard the heartbeat which was the most beautiful music ever, I picked out names and envisioned what my child would look like, till the heart beat suddenly stopped.” After that traumatising experience, the songstress must have decided to keep her pregnancies away from the public.
That same year, the private couple was rumoured to be expecting a child. Curious fans and critics speculated that Beyonce was wearing a fake bump and using a gestational surrogate. The Grammy award winner immediately revealed her growing baby bump at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards. Ivy was born months later.
This was not the last stroke of the secret pregnancy drama queen. Early this year the songstress showed off her baby pump with twins. However, she remained tight-lipped about the sex of the twins. Speculations shored up from one of her photos where the star was wearing a blue pair of pants and a pink strap ribbon on her bra. The speculations suggested that Beyonce could be expecting a baby girl and boy.
After the pictures shared of the baby shower with the power couple dressed in African attire, we had not heard much of pregnancy until the announcement. We can therefore officially crown Beyonce Knowles the “Queen of Pregnancy Drama.”
