Beyoncé Opens Up About Being A Famous Mom In Rare Interview: ‘My Kids Come w/ Me Everywhere I Go’

Beyoncé might be an icon and a legend, but her priority is her and Jay-Z‘s three children.

The couple share daughter Blue Ivy, 12, and twins Rumi and Sir, who are 7.

In a rare interview with GQ, the 32-time Grammy winner detailed what a typical day (if that exists) looks like as she balances her career and being a mom.

“Most days I try to wake up around 6 a.m., squeezing in an hour or two of work before the little ones are up. Parenting while working, I move forward, embracing the beauty and the chaos of it all.”

She added,

“Our home is alive with cousins and friends, spontaneous talent shows, and the clatter of dominoes. I’ve been trying to focus on my health, taking my supplements, and eating very clean. I’ve given up meat, except for turkey, this summer. I’m trying to muster the strength to work out, but I just can’t do it today. Maybe tomorrow. Haaaa!”

Considering how much the world has changed since the earlier days of her career, Beyoncé said she’s focused on making sure her children aren’t violated with things like AI.

“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. 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.”

Still, she doesn’t keep her children completely closed off as Blue Ivy notably hit the stage with her during her global Renaissance Tour last year. Speaking about the decision to put Blue Ivy in the ultra-bright spotlight, the Cowboy Carter singer said,

“I build my work schedule around my family. I try to only tour when my kids are out of school. I always dreamt of a life where I could see the world with my family and expose them to different languages, architecture, and lifestyles.”

Adding:

“Raising three kids isn’t easy. The older they get, the more they become their own individuals with unique needs, hobbies, and social lives. My twins are God-sent. Parenting constantly teaches you about yourself. It takes a lot of prayer and patience. I love it. It’s grounding and fulfilling.

My kids come with me everywhere I go. They come to my office after school, and they are in the studio with me. They are in dance rehearsals. It’s natural that they would learn my choreography.”

“Blue is an artist. She has great taste in music and fashion. She is a fantastic editor, painter, and actress. She has been creating characters since she was three. She’s a natural, but I did not want Blue onstage. Blue wanted it for herself. She took it seriously and she earned it. And most importantly, she had fun! We all watched her grow more and more every night before our eyes.”
