Beyoncé Knowles Responds To Those Divorce Rumors on Instagram
TIME.com:
Question: How do you know if a Beyoncé rumor is worth talking about? Answer: If she decides to address it in her own special Beyoncé way — with some not-so-subtle Instagram PR a la Solange-gate. A recent blind item suggested the pop star and husband Jay Z are going to end their marriage once their joint On the Run tour wraps up, and the news has sent some Internet dwellers into a bit of a tizzy. Sure, Beyoncé and Jay Z divorce rumors happen all the time, often for no real reason — but some are taking this rumor more seriously because it comes from the same source that called the Tom Cruise-Katie Holmes divorce.RELATED: Did Beyonce Steal Kelly Rowland’s ‘Rosie the Riveter’ Pose?
Of course, the fact that Beyoncé posted a picture of happy family time on social media doesn’t make it true — she responded to pregnancy rumors with a Tumblr post and a glass of wine, and Blue Ivy Carter is still an only child as far as we know (assuming you believe she gave birth to Blue in the first place). It just means that, were Beyoncé’s gossip troubles ever canonized, this week’s news would certainly make the List of Beyoncé Scandals page Wikipedia, which somehow does not exist yet. Get on it, #BeyHive.

"Unbothered and staying prayed up and, away from any negativity. #StillStanding #GodsChild Don't judge what you don't know." Franklin wrote on Monday. "The sad thing is people LIVE for drama but run from the truth, Smh. There's always 3 sides to a story your side, my side and the TRUTH! But the truth is normally not as interesting as a lie, lol. Thank you to EVERYONE who has reached out to send me love and Blessings during this messy time in my life it's greatly appreciated."
"I pray for God to give me strength in every weak and weary place in My life and, for Him to turn My obstacles into Victories. Amen," she continued. "I love my Dad more than words could ever explain... He truly Loves me and knows just what to say to make me feel better. #DaddysGirl."
Before heading off to the studio, she added: "God gives all of his hardest battles to his strongest soldiers."
As previously reported, Franklin was arrested for disorderly conduct in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina on Sunday, July 20. TMZ reported that NFL players Da'Quan Bowers and Ricky Sapp called the police after a night out with Franklin. The trio returned to Sapp's home where Franklin appeared intoxicated and went to the bathroom several times. According to the site, Franklin—who sang in Destiny's Child for five months in 2000—was then found lying down in a neighbor's front yard and claimed she was going to sleep in the woods.

Beyoncé and Jay Z’s HBO concert special will debut Sept. 20.RELATED: Beyoncé Already Responded to Those Divorce Rumors on Instagram
HBO previously announced it would tape a pair of shows from the superstar couple’s On the Run summer stadium tour.
The special will be taped during their shows in Paris on Sept. 12 and 13 at Stade de France -- the only international shows they’ve booked for the tour-- and will feature more than 40 songs.
“This is a major musical event that belongs on HBO,” Michael Lombardo, president of HBO programming, said in an earlier statement. “It’s going to be a night to remember.”
Despite a number of joint hits documenting their love over the last dozen or so years -- “Crazy in Love,” “ '03 Bonnie & Clyde” and “Drunk in Love,” to name a few -- and countless performances together, the pair had yet to tour together.
Last summer, Jay Z used HBO to debut "Picasso Baby: A Performance Art Film" built around his hit album "Magna Carta Holy Grail."

Franklin was booked around 5 a.m. EST Sunday and released shortly after noon the same day, according to the Horry County Sheriff's Office.
Hours before the arrest, she posted a picture of herself on the beach to Instagram.
