Star Magazine in the UK (no affiliation with the STAR magazine tabloid here in the US) claims they have nabbed the first Beyonce post-baby interview. Beyonce’s reps haven’t confirmed this interview actually took place and it wouldn’t be the first time someone made up an interview involving a high profile celeb. With that said, the mag released a few snippets from the chit chat.
On her excitement of being a mom for the first time
“Nothing can describe the feeling … when you hold (her) for the first time, the words can’t be found. You have the instant connection once you know your child is growing inside you, but when you hold it for the first time, the words can’t be found.
It’s an old cliche that the thing expectant moms look forward to the most is holding their child in their arms for the first time, but it’s one of those clichés that is a real truth.”
On Jay-Z in the delivery room
“He would not have missed it for anything. He is a very protective and loyal guy by nature. He is a very protective husband, and since we have found out I was pregnant I have seen the protective father in him.”
On who will be on diaper duty
“He will change diapers, of course he will. He is going to be a very hands-on father. He has already said publicly that providing isn’t love. Love is being there. Love is doing little things for your child.”
On the couple’s parenting so far
“I am so excited. From the time I knew I was pregnant we have been parents. A child is the greatest gift you can receive, and we are so excited and blessed to be in this situation….We are all great, we are just glad to be going home and starting this new stage of our life. The hospital staff have all been so great, but we were ready to go home and show our beautiful daughter where she will be living.”
The full interview will be in the upcoming issue of UK STAR magazine.
And in D.C. over the weekend at BET Honors, both Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland, new aunties to Baby Blue, gushed about the little bundle of joy.
Kelly told Essence.com the 2-week-old little girl is “beautiful” while Michelle said, “We’ve been doing everything, whatever [Beyonce] needs. Though there is one thing the ladies can’t help their superstar friend with. No breastfeeding. Ain’t no milk coming out.
