*Christmas came early for the Beyhive last week when a photo of Beyonce and Jay-Z’s three children was shared on social media. But just as soon as the image emerged, it was quickly snatched by the couple’s team, as it was posted online without their consent.
As reported by cheatsheet.com, the image of Blue Ivy and twins Sir and Rumi was meant to remain private.
It is still uncertain who posted the photo first, but Hollywood Unlocked helped it go viral after uploading the black and white image to Instagram on April 3. The pic has since been removed at the request of the Carters’ management.

A statement by site owner Jason Lee reads: “We received a photo of Beyoncé’s children via an anonymous source and posted the image believing that it had already been posted by the Carters. After receiving a call from Beyoncé’s representative and learning that the image was not authorized we immediately removed it from our platform out of respect for their privacy.”
Meanwhile, the beyhive has been trying to track down the culprit responsible for the leak. Although, some internet sleuths believe Beyonce leaked the image herself to promote her upcoming Netflix documentary, the trailer for which dropped yesterday (April 8).
