Infidelity is a common cause of divorce, and it is hard for most people to move on from a scandal like this.
It is particularly difficult for those who live in the spotlight, due to the constant attention of millions of eyes focused on them.
Recently, legendary New York rapper JAY-Z has decided to say something about the situation he and wife Beyoncé went through, and it seems like the ordeal has touched him very deeply.
According to the rapper, he has been struggling with what he had done for some time, and therapy was the one thing that helped him pick up the pieces and move on.
JAY-Z described how disappointed he was in himself after seeing the pain on his loved one’s face, but at the same time, he believes he has made the right decision by choosing to stay, stating that he would consider anything else running away.
In the end, it does sound like the business mogul has a more positive outlook on life now, and he seems to have at least learned something from the pain he caused the diva from Texas.
The hip-hop sensation told T: The New York Times Style Magazine: “You know, most people walk away, and like divorce rate is like 50 percent or something ’cause most people can’t see themselves. The hardest thing is seeing pain on someone’s face that you caused, and then have to deal with yourself. So, you know, most people don’t want to do that. You don’t want to look inside yourself. And so you walk away.”
Whether things will ever truly get back to normal for the couple, or if there will always be some leftover tension between them, is hard to say.
Many of their fans would surely be disappointed to start seeing less of JAY-Z and Beyoncé together in public though, so hopefully, they do find a way to work out their differences, and Beyoncé is able to forgive what happened and move on herself.
For what it is worth, some commenters found that JAY-Z’s statements did focus a little too much on how he himself was hurt.
The two music superstars are planning to release a joint album next year; this project might offer fans and foes more insight into what really happened between them.
