When two of the biggest names in the music industry are in a romantic relationship, it’s a global phenomenon. Beyoncé, also known as Queen B, is a former member of the iconic girl group Destiny’s Child and was only 19 when she met the man who would one day be her husband. 

In 2003, “Empire State of Mind” singer Jay-Z confirmed to Vanity Fair that he and Queen B were officially a couple after the two worked on “03 Bonnie and Clyde.” The two officially got married in 2008 and have had three children since. Despite some ups and downs, which have been chronicled through both their collaborations and music as solo artists, they remain a strong and lasting couple today.
