The details we know so far as the cracks in Beyoncé and Jay Z’s marriage start to show through.
Beyoncé and Jay Z’s marriage troubles have escalated to new heights this week after it’s reported that the promoters of their On the Run world tour are in crisis talks to address the couple’s disintegrating marriage and how the $100 million tour will survive it.
A source for the NY Post said: “There are lawyers that have now joined the tour, and they’re not here just to see them perform. They are here to help hash things out.” Reportedly things have gotten so bad between them that Bey and Jay are both staying in entirely separate hotels.
It’s also been reported that Beyoncé has been secretly shopping for a new apartment without Jay-Z. The NY Post also reported that she viewed a $21.5 million penthouse in New York last month for her and daughter Blue Ivy.

Beyonce and Jay Z control their public image so tightly that there could well be no real marriage left behind the scenes and the public wouldn’t know.
The NY Post has reported that a source close to the pair informed them: “Business is always part of the equation. They know they’re the king and queen of hip-hop — and really, all of music. Neither wants to lose that.”

Their public image has always been carefully managed but that has all come crumbling apart since the leaked video of Beyoncé’s sister Solange attacking Jay Z in an elevator. No one knows exactly what caused the rift but there have been suggestions that it was to do with infidelities on Jay’s part – especially as he was looking to party with Rihanna that night.
Beyonce also changed the lyrics to her song “Resentment” while performing onstage which many have suggested was her way of dropping hints that Jay had been cheating. There have also been recent photos showing that the “IV” tattooed on Beyonce’s ring finger — for their wedding – has been erased.

Publicly though, they have been extremely careful to play happy families since the whole elevator incident, kissing each other on stage and posting pictures of them together as a family on Instagram with Blue Ivy.
Could this really be the end? We’ll have to wait to the end of the tour to see – if they really are headed for splitsville, chances are low that they’ll stick together beyond the contractual obligations of their tour.

It is thought that Beyonce and Jay Z’s marriage is currently being held together solely by their business empire.
Their current combined “On the Run” world tour is expected to gross $100 million and neither Jay or Bey wants to relinquish that.
A source told The NY Post: “Business is always part of the equation. They know they’re the king and queen of hip-hop — and really, all of music. Neither wants to lose that.”
Who run the world? Beyonce posted this snap to her Instagram last week of herself posed as vintage feminist icon “Rosie the Riveter”. Perhaps a hint that she’s strong enough on her own and doesn’t need any man tying her down?
