It appears as if things are now all good between Beyonce and Jay Z.
And the same can seemingly be said between Beyonce, Jay Z and Solange Knowles, even after the latter went bonkers and attacked her brother-in-law inside a New York City elevator this spring.
Solange covers the latest issue of Lucky, addressing the well-publicized confrontation for the first time and referring to it as "that thing."
"What's important is that my family and I are all good," Solange tells the magazine. "What we had to say collectively was in the statement that we put out, and we all feel at peace with that."
The statement in question was released in May, just a few days after security footage leaked depicting Solange attacking her Jay Z in the elevator of New York City's Standard Hotel.
It read:
As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident," the statement at the time read. "But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it.
Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred. They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family.
While the family never talked about what sparked the fight, an insider tells Us Weekly it "was over something so small and stupid."
The tabloid adds that Solange was being a "loudmouth," with both Bey and Jay trying to "handle the situation" because "Solange has been that way before, and Jay and Bey just wanted to get her out of there and home before she really caused a ruckus."
In other words: it could have been far worse.
Many have pointed out that the fight took place at the end of a very long night of partying, and Solange may have been drunk at the time of the event. Reactions from those around her suggest this sort of thing happens often.
