The Jay Z-Beyonce divorce rumors just got a whole lot juicier.
A woman named Tina Seals has filed a maternity lawsuit in Manhattan in which she claims to be the mother of Blue Ivy Carter, Jay Z and Beyonce's only child.
The legal document alleges that Seals is seeking "to verify whether she is the biological mother" of the toddler and that she was "previously associated" in some way with defendants "Beyonce Knowles and Jay Z Carter."
The court case is numbers CV 6219 and was filed on July 14.

It's nearly unheard of for a woman to file a maternity lawsuit because this somehow means Seals believes SHE gave birth to Blue Ivy instead of Beyonce... which is just an odd thing for the latter to have covered up and/or the former to have allowed.
Could she have had an affair with Jay Z, given the child up for adoption to the couple and is now having second thoughts?
It's unclear, and it could be complete BS - but this scandal comes amidst incessant chatter that Jay Z and Beyonce are on the outs.
They've been touring together for weeks, but many close to the stars say the singers scarcely talk off stage and that "no one will be surprised" when they split.
Jay Z, meanwhile, has been rumored to have stepped out on Beyonce with everyone from Rihanna to some artist named Liv... and now with Tina Seals as well.
Knowles responded to the negative talk about her marriage last weekend by posing on Instagram in a Carter jersey, making it clear which team she supposedly remains on.
