Beyoncé and Jay Z: 12 year age gap

Music’s power couple met when Beyoncé was just 18, and they shared their first date at the famous Nobu restaurant. However, it took them a few years to reach the alter, and not for any old reason, Beyoncé told Seventeen magazine, “I really don’t believe that you will love the same thing when you’re 20 as you do at 30, so that was my rule. Before the age of 25, I would never get married.”
