Beyoncé and Jay-Z are effectively managing the rigors of being two of the most high-profile entertainers and entrepreneurs in the world, with being parents-of-three. The pop icon, 43, and the rapper and streaming mogul, 54, share oldest pre-teen daughter Blue Ivy Carter , 12, and twins Rumi and Sir Carter, seven . In a recent, rare interview with GQ , the Cowboy Carter hitmaker expanded expanded upon her relationship with her children and finding the balance of her status with motherhood and family.
She specifically also shared some insight into the different ways the three were growing up now compared to how her relationship with Jay-Z (real name Shawn Carter) first began in the early 2000s. When speaking about reconciling her massive enterprise as a musician and businesswoman with being around family, she answered: "We live in a world of access. We have access to so much information — some facts, and some complete [expletive] disguised as truth.
" She continued: "Our children can FaceTime and see their friends at any given moment. My husband and I? We used calling cards and Skype when we were falling in love." "I couldn't afford the international hotel bills, so I literally would get international calling cards to call him.
Just recently, I heard an AI song that sounded so much like me it scared me. It's impossible to truly know what's real and what's not." Beyoncé emphasized that she worked tirelessly to ensure that her kids had the normalcy they needed, and justified.
