Beyoncé Reportedly Writing A Memoir That Could Shake Jay-Z To The Core

Beyoncé is reportedly penning a deeply personal memoir that insiders believe could challenge the very core of her marriage to Jay-Z.

Recall that a biography about the singer has been written in the past, but this time, Beyoncé will say things in her own words.

According to sources, the pop icon began work on the book after being inspired by her mother Tina Knowles’ recent memoir, and is determined to share untold stories from her extraordinary life, including tales of infidelity.

Beyoncé prefers to keep her personal life away from the tabloids, but according to insiders, deep details about the star’s life might be making headlines soon.

Recently, a source told the Daily Mail that the Grammy Award winner was working on a memoir.

“Beyoncé is quietly writing a memoir after being inspired by her mother’s book,” they said. “Beyoncé has been private about her personal life but she documents everything so has technically been writing one for over a decade now.”

The insider also noted that while J. Randy Taraborrelli's biography "Becoming Beyoncé: The Untold Story" tried to provide clearer details about the icon’s life, Beyoncé didn’t feel the book “portrayed her correctly.”

“She is going to bare all in her own words. Publishers are aware of this and have already started putting bids in,” they noted.

Sources believe that the memoir could shake Jay-Z to the core as Beyoncé might go into detail about his rumored infidelity.

“Tina has been encouraging Beyoncé to be honest and raw about everything — including the infidelity,” the insider told the publication.

Rumors of an affair began swirling in 2014 after the MET Gala when TMZ released footage of Beyoncé’s sister, Solange, attacking the “Empire State of Mind” rapper in an elevator.

The video, which the outlet obtained for $250,000, showed Solange poking her finger at Jay-Z before shoving and hitting him.

The 38-year-old also threw her clutch bag at his head. While the chaos happened, Beyoncé remained unfazed. She stepped out of the elevator with composure, showing no sign of any altercation.

The motive behind the attack was never disclosed, but fans suspected that it had to do with the rapper cheating on her sister.

Following the viral footage, Solange, Beyoncé, and Jay Z released a statement to The Associated Press, addressing the incident.

“As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident. But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it,” the statement read.

They also noted that both parties had taken responsibility for their actions and apologized to each other, adding that they had moved forward as one happy family.

“The reports of Solange being intoxicated or displaying erratic behavior throughout that evening are simply false. At the end of the day, families have problems, and we’re no different. We love each other and above all we are family. We’ve put this behind us and hope everyone else will do the same,” they shared.

Two years after the altercation, the infidelity rumors intensified after Beyoncé released her album “Lemonade.”

In one of the tracks, the 43-year-old included the lyrics, “He only want me when I'm not there / He better call Becky with the good hair,” making fans believe “Becky” was the woman Jay-Z had cheated with.

Becky’s identity was never revealed, but many were convinced it was singer Rita Ora, who signed to Jay Z's label Roc Nation in 2008.

Others said the mistress was fashion designer Rachel Roy, the ex-wife of the rapper’s business partner, Damon Dash.

In 2017, Jay-Z shocked the public when he admitted to cheating on his wife. “So even with women, you gonna shut down emotionally, so you can’t connect…. In my case, like, it’s deep,” he told The New York Times. “And then all the things happen from there: infidelity.”

It appears Beyoncé forgave her husband as the pair are still happily married, nearly a decade after his confession.

Besides Jay-Z’s infidelity, insiders believe Beyoncé will also address her decision to stay private about her family life, especially her kids.

During an interview with GQ in 2024, the mom of three admitted to wanting to give her children a normal life despite being a celebrity.

“'One thing I've worked extremely hard on is making sure my kids can have as much normalcy and privacy as possible, ensuring my personal life isn't turned into a brand,” she said.

The songstress also added, “'It’s very easy for celebrities to turn our lives into performance art. I have made an extreme effort to stay true to my boundaries and protect myself and my family. No amount of money is worth my peace.”
