It's once of life's great questions - just how does a worldwide superstar spend her 31st birthday?
By hiring a fat off yacht and sailing across the Med with your super cute family. That's how.
Beyonce has been celebrating her birthday with a family, ocean-based adventure.
Her and Jay-Z have hired a superyacht to mark the occasion and were spied making the most of some QT together on the open seas. Jealous much.
But poor Bey totally had her thunder stolen on her big day by daughter Blue, not that we think she'll mind.
Can we just say how adorable this child is? Too late, we just did.
