Jay-Z’s infidelity has cast a long shadow over his marriage to Beyoncé, fueling years of rumors and public scrutiny. Despite their initial privacy, cracks emerged as allegations surfaced about his connections with four women.
In 2013, Claudia Scheelen was rumored to have been involved with Jay-Z, though she denied it, calling the claims fabricated. The following year, a leaked video of Beyoncé’s sister Solange attacking Jay-Z in an elevator sparked further speculation. Around the same time, he was linked to Casey Cohen, who vehemently denied any affair.
Beyoncé’s 2016 album Lemonade addressed infidelity, with the now-famous line, “He better call Becky with the good hair.” Fashion designer Rachel Roy and singer Rita Ora were both speculated as “Becky,” but neither admitted involvement.
Despite challenges, the couple remained together, channeling their struggles into music. In 2022, Beyoncé dedicated her Renaissance album to her family, showing their enduring bond.
