Beyonce and Jay-Z made their public appearance after a long absence, sparking speculation about a connection to Diddy.
The A-list couple and their 12-year-old daughter Blue Ivy Carter had a journey through The Hamptons in a vintage Land Rover Defender 110 from the late 1990s.
The 42-year-old Cowboy Carter megastar appeared to be photographing the drive in the classic SUV, holding up her phone as they drove through the upscale area.
Beyonce and Jay-Z were seen for the first time since their hiatus from the public eye, sparking wild conspiracy rumors about a Diddy connection.
Beyonce smiled broadly as her 54-year-old rapper husband – born Shawn Corey Carter – drove the vehicle.
Blue Ivy was seen sitting in the back seat, but it is unclear whether her other two siblings, seven-year-old twins Rumi and Sir, were with them.
The outing comes weeks after suspicion that their absence from the publicity circuit was linked to Diddy.
Beyonce hasn’t attended any red carpet events since the iHeart Radio Music Awards on April 1, despite releasing her new album Cowboy Carter in March.
According to a bizarre conspiracy theory, Beyonce and her husband Jay-Z, 54, are ‘lying low’ in the aftermath of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual abuse scandal.
An insider further speculates that the couple is so ‘nervous’ about bringing attention to their Diddy connections that Beyonce is purposefully ignoring the Cowboy Carter promo.
More lately, Beyonce has been active on social media, beginning with a bold comeback to Instagram on June 6.
The 32-time Grammy Award-winner shared a series of glamor photos with her wearing a beige cowboy hat and a busty suede dress.

A bizarre conspiracy theory suggests that both Beyonce and her husband Jay-Z, 54, are ‘lying low’ amid their disgraced colleague Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual abuse scandal, according to Page Six.
Combs, 54, is currently facing eight lawsuits alleging rape, physical abuse, 𝓈ℯ𝓍 trafficking, racketeering, and other serious crimes spanning three decades.
In March, Homeland Security officers raided the music mogul’s houses in Los Angeles and Miami as part of a 𝓈ℯ𝓍-trafficking investigation, potentially leading to a grand jury indictment.
In May, a shocking video surfaced of Combs severely hitting his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in a hotel corridor in 2016.
Cassie, who had a 10-year relationship with Combs, filed a lawsuit accusing him of rape and physical abuse in November 2023, which was resolved for $30 million the next day.
Beyonce’s Cowboy Carter was released on March 29 — three days after the Diddy raids — and lasted two weeks atop the Billboard 200 album chart.
Beyonce became the first Black woman to top the country album charts, featuring Miley Cyrus, Dolly Parton, and Willie Nelson on her tracks.
‘This was meant to be Beyoncé’s time, with her much-anticipated country album released [just] two months ago,’ Page Six’s insider added.
‘And yet, she is nowhere to be seen. The album is slipping and Jay and B aren’t reveling in the spotlight.’
Beyonce had suddenly ‘disappeared’ after releasing her new album Cowboy Carter this past March, and she hasn’t attended a red carpet event since the iHeartRadio Music Awards on April 1 (seen).
The insider then brought up Jay-Z’s divisive 2024 Grammys speech, in which he chastised the Recording Academy for never giving his wife Album of the Year despite Beyoncé being the most awarded female musician.
‘About a month before the [March 29] release, Jay-Z stood up at the Grammys and complained that Beyoncé had never won Album of the Year,’ they reported.
But now what? Does he believe she will win for Cowboy Carter despite no promotion, no appearances, and no courting of the academy?
Although Cowboy Carter had a successful release, the CD was not as popular as expected.
According to the insider, Beyoncé appears to have abandoned ship because’something is going on’ behind the scenes.
Something is going on. It debuted with a boom. Number one everywhere. [Now] it and she have vanished,’ the insider stated.
Jay-Z and Combs have been buddies since the early 1990s, when both were starting out in rap in New York.
They have worked together on several songs, including a tune on Combs’ debut studio album, No Way Out, released in 1997.

In 2000, Beyoncé began dating Jay-Z, a Bad Boy Records executive who immediately became a part of her life.
As speculation over her public absence continues, Beyonce seemed unfazed in Thursday’s Instagram posts.
The Halo hitmaker first uploaded a photo slideshow set to the soundtrack of Cowboy Carter’s song “SWEET ★ HONEY ★ BUCKIIN” featuring Shaboozey.
She looked like a busty bombshell as she twirled around in a beige suede gown with vibrant flower prints.
The inside of the low-cut garment was lined with pink and leopard-print fabric.
Beyonce squeezed her already-small waist with a thin brown leather belt and strolled around in brown steel-toed boots.
The mother of three wore high-waisted Daisy Duke shorts that showcased her stunning legs.
