A source close to People.com revealed to the magazine that R&B singer Beyonce and her longtime boyfriend, rapper Jay-Z, wed on Friday. Though there is no official confirmation, the friend says, “It happened earlier this evening. Jay wanted it to be a really private affair â close friends and family.” The ceremony was followed by a lavish party at the rapper’s Tribeca apartment that drew Beyoncé’s mother Tina Knowles, her father/manager Mathew, her sister Solange, her Destiny’s Child sisters Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, and the couple’s friend Gwyneth Paltrow. The wedding buzz began when the couple went to get a marriage license at a village hall in Scarsdale, N.Y., on Tuesday. A couple since 2002, Jay-Z, 38, and Knowles, 26, always kept quiet about their relationship, even as they were photographed together on romantic holidays around the world.
