Beyoncé is said to be standing by husband Jay-Z after disturbing allegations recently came to light.
The power couple was recently spotted together at the premiere of “Mufasa: The Lion King” with their eldest child, Blue Ivy.
An insider close to the Carters revealed to Page Six that Beyoncé’s decision to support her husband during his current legal ordeal was clear when they attended the event together.
“The solidarity the family showed last night shows Beyoncé’s unwavering support for Jay,” the insider said.
Another individual corroborated this information, claiming that the former Destiny’s Child star “has no intention of leaving Jay-Z” because she “trusts him wholeheartedly”.
“[The Carters are] team and will face this situation together,” the insider revealed, noting that the “Texas Hold ‘Em” singer will “support him throughout.”
Another report from The US Sun quoted a source as saying: “Disney’s side has been hesitant about how best to handle this issue due to events from [the lawsuit].”
“Finally, it was Beyonce’s call,” the source pointed out. “They allowed her to decide how she thought best to handle the situation, which is how much Disney trusted and appreciated her.”
“And the way she wants to handle this is to smile, show solidarity, stand by her man but also celebrate her daughter,” the source added. “It was mentioned several times to ‘keep the mood light’ and try to create a Blue moment.”
Plans to conduct red carpet interviews were quickly scrapped after news of the lawsuit emerged on Sunday. Instead, both Disney and Cartners agreed to proceed with photo opportunities only.

Jay-Z is named in the civil lawsuit along with Sean “Diddy” Combs. Initially, the lawsuit only targeted him as a defendant. However, this week’s amended legal action also involves the “Empire State of Mind” rapper.
Plaintiff Jane Doe claims that both musicians sexually assaulted her at an MTV Music Awards after-party in 2000.
Following the allegations against him, Jay-Z took to his business platform Roc Nation to issue a strong response. He vehemently denied the claims and pointed the finger at Tony Buzbee, a lawyer from Texas who has initiated multiple lawsuits against the disgraced Bad BOy Records mogul.
Jay-Z dismissed the lawsuit as a blatant act of blackmail orchestrated by Buzbee, saying “My attorney received an extortion attempt, known as a demand letter, from a ‘lawyer’ named Tony Buzbee.”
“What he calculated was that the nature of these allegations and the public scrutiny would make me want to address them,” Jay-Z added. “No, sir, it has the opposite effect! It makes me want to expose your fraud VERY publicly. So, no, I won’t give you ONE RED PENNY.”
