“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.

“They are trying to figure out a way to split without divorcing,” the source said at the time. “This is a huge concert tour, and they’ve already gotten most of the money from the promoters upfront. Jay was outdoing Jay, and Bey was outdoing Bey. They made the classic mistake of thinking a child would change everything and help to rekindle the initial fire, and it didn’t.” The supposed split never happened.
