Beyoncé and Jay-Z got away from it all on Friday with a family trip to the Hamptons.
The 38-year-old singer and actress and the 50-year-old rap mogul deplaned from their private jet on Long Island’s East Hampton with their oldest daughter Blue Ivy, eight, and their twins Rumi and Sir, both three.

Both Beyoncé and Jay were careful to wear masks to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus around their family, though other members of their entourage went mask-free.
The Drunk In Love singer was dressed for comfort in a baggy gray hoodie with text on the front.
She paired it with flowing gray striped pants and white tennis shoes, and her caramel-colored locks slipped out from under her hood.
She carried Rumi, who didn’t seem to care for the jet’s noise, and wore a cute pink hoodie with a multi-colored skirt and black high top Pumas.
Blue Ivy looked stylish as ever in gray camouflage sweats, and she wore her hair in long braids.

Jay complemented his wife with his black hoodie and black sweatpants, which he wore with tall white socks, white tennis shoes and a black LA Dodgers cap.
He also repped his own entertainment and management company Roc Nation with a black mask bearing its name.
As he stepped off the plane he held Sir, who had on a white T-shirt and jean shorts.
The rapper’s luxurious getaway came shortly after he and Beyoncé were sued for their use of Lenora Antoinette Stines’ voice at the beginning of their song Black Effect off their collaborative album Everything Is Love, credited to The Carters.

Stines alleges in her suit that she was originally contracted to find dancers for the song’s video.
On the day of the shoot, she claims she was asked to speak her thoughts on love on camera and was asked to sign a document before doing so, though she wasn’t allowed to have her son, who is an attorney, go over a copy of it.
After signing and speaking on camera, she discovered that her spoken words weren’t just part of the video, but were prominently incorporated into the first minute of the track.
Stines is requesting damages in the case.

In recent weeks, both Beyoncé and Jay-Z have been outspoken about the police killing of George Floyd and protests across the nation inspired by his death and the deaths of other Black people at the hands of police officers.
Earlier this month, she shared an image of protestors flooding overpasses to protest Floyd’s death.
He was killed by former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin on May 25, when the officer pressed his knee into his neck for nearly nine minutes, including almost three minutes beyond when he had stopped breathing and became unresponsive.
After a multi-day delay, Chauvin was arrest and charged with third-degree murder (later upgraded to second-degree murder) and second-degree manslaughter.
The other three officers at the scene of Floyd’s death were also fired from the Minneapolis Police Department and were later charged with aiding and abetting manslaughter and murder after intense public outcry.
Prior to their arrest, Beyoncé circulated a petition calling for charges to be brought against all the officers at the scene.
