Jay-Z and Beyoncé are reportedly gearing up to respond after Kanye West crossed a line with a vulgar social media outburst targeting their 7-year-old twins, Rumi and Sir.
The hip-hop titans are said to be exploring their options—potentially legal ones—following Ye’s unhinged X posts, which insiders describe as “vulgar and offensive.”
A source close to the couple told Page Six, “Jay-Z and Beyoncé are aware of the posts Kanye has since deleted and are discussing how they want to handle this situation, whether that be privately and/or in a legal matter.” One thing’s clear: they “will absolutely not stand for it.”
