Jay Z Spotted for the First Time Since Lemonade Controversy

The rapper has been scrutinized since his wife released her latest album

While fans are sipping on all of the Lemonade drama, Jay Z is busy puffing on his cigar. 

Days after Beyoncé shocked the world with a surprise visual album packed with unspecified cheating allegations, her husband of eight years was sighted relaxing with a cigar at a Miami hotel Tuesday—the day before Beyoncé was slated to kick off her Formation tour at Marlins Park Wednesday night. 

While Jay takes in the sunshine, the allegations against him spurred by his wife's lyrics continue to swirl. Who is "Becky with the good hair" that Bey not-so-subtly mentions in her song "Sorry?" 

Fan theory remains fixated on designer Rachel Roy, a rumored mistress of Jay Z and the alleged cause for the infamous Met Gala elevator brawl. While she has publicly denied the rumors and stated she respects "love, marriages, families and strength," the music industry's most celebrated couple is far from perfect, but is currently in a period of repair. 

"They are going to be OK. This is round two," a friend told E! News. "They are determined to make it work and we all believe they can do it." 

While some would mistake Lemonade as cause for more marital strife, the album was actually a healing step forward. 

"He is fully supportive. He understands the reasoning," the insider said. "This is part of the process of being transparent. And they have healed. He has been very humble about the experience. Beyoncé is the love of his life and he will do what it takes.

As for the album's production, the rapper wasn't as blind to the music as some would think. 

"Jay was involved in the creation of Lemonade and knew every song Bey was going to release. He knew the lyrics; he knew the implications. He had to approve the songs before release. Jay is a very smart businessman," the insider said. "Bottom line is that they are both really smart and they both saw dollar signs."
