The nephew of global star Beyoncé, 21-year-old Julez Smith, has found himself at the center of heated discussions after news broke of his romance with 41-year-old rapper whose life is full of scandals and legal battles.
The entire Knowles-Carter family is once again under the public's watchful eye, but this time the reason is not Queen Bee. The main character of the social chronicles is her 21-year-old nephew Julez Smith, the son of Beyoncé's younger sister, Solange Knowles. He has started a romance with the flamboyant 41-year-old rapper Tommie Lee, who, by the way, is two years older than his own mother! Western TikTok is literally buzzing with speculation about how his famous aunt Beyoncé and grandmother Tina Knowles will react to this rather unexpected choice.
The first suspicions about the new couple arose when Tommie Lee shared a short video on her social media, in which Julez joyfully carries her on his back. In this cute clip, Julez himself says, "This is what happens when you like someone." And Tommie, not hiding her affection, calls him "my baby" and "handsome."
Scandalous Past of the Chosen One
The shocking age difference between the lovers is a full twenty years! Tommie Lee, whose real name is Atasha Chiza Jefferson, is not only two decades older than her young partner but also surpasses his mother, 39-year-old Solange Knowles, by two years. The rapper is widely known not only for her participation in the popular reality show Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta but also for her rather controversial reputation. As a mother of two children, she has regularly found herself in the spotlight of law enforcement. In 2019, she was even charged with serious allegations of child abuse: according to the investigation, Lee physically assaulted her daughter right at school and reportedly dragged her by the hair. Moreover, Tommie Lee has previously candidly shared that she gave birth to one of her daughters while in custody, and she was only able to be taken to the hospital from jail. Additionally, she has bravely battled a serious addiction for many years.
Life of Julez Smith
Julez himself, whose parents divorced back in 2007, is actively developing his modeling career. In a recent interview, he shared that he first encountered severe bullying on social media when he was only 13 years old. At that time, his mother posted a photo of him in a suit, which provoked a wave of offensive comments directed at him.
Shadow of Scandals over the Knowles-Carter Family
It is worth noting that recently the names of Beyoncé and her husband Jay-Z have also been mentioned in a rather sensitive context. This is related to the publication of documents in the high-profile case of billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The celebrity couple categorically denies any involvement in Epstein's activities. However, it is known that his circle of acquaintances was extremely wide: names such as Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, as well as Elon Musk and many other representatives of the political and business elite appeared in his address books.
