Beyonce

Beyonce Knowles is pregnant – and it’s official! For weeks there has been speculation – mostly by Beyonce’s most ardent fans – that the Queen is pregnant.

Well on September 4, Beyonce confirmed her fans’ suspicions.

Beyonce attended Jay-Z’s annual Made In America event in Philadelphia – and she didn’t even attempt to hide her massive baby bump.

It was a special day for Beyonce because many of her friends and family members including Jay-Z gathered at the Made in America festival to sing her a happy birthday.

The Texas diva was casually dressed as she watched her loved-ones sing, and she eventually blew the candles on her birthday cake, (her actual birthday is on the 4th of September).

The “Irreplaceable” singer turns 38 on Wednesday, September 4.

Beyonce and her billionaire husband Jay-Z currently have three children. Their eldest is Blue Ivy Carter, who is seven. Hip Hop’s first couple also have twin two-year-olds – Sir and Rumi Carter.

This pregnancy would be Beyonce’s 4th child. And the number, ‘four’, holds a special place for Bey and Jay. The couple believes that ‘4’ is their lucky number.
