Watch: Beyonce And Jay Z Secretly ‘Split For A Year’ Amid Rihanna Cheating Rumors, Claims New Tell-All
Rumors of an alleged affair between Jay Z and Rihanna have plagued the rapper’s marriage with Beyonce for years, but according to a new tell-all, chatter of his infidelity caused the power couple to secretly “split for a year.”
In J. Randy Taraborrelli’s book “Becoming Beyoncé,” he wrote that Jay’s rumored fling with RiRi when she was 17 and a still rising star was “total fiction,” but that didn’t stop Bey from getting upset.
“Beyoncé didn’t know what to make of this, and it actually ended up breaking them up for a time,” the book read. “They spent maybe a year apart from each other because Beyoncé just wasn’t sure of what to make of the situation with Rihanna.”
