Kanye is saying and doing a lot as of late, including a recent declaration that he’s permanently moving back to Chicago. He had social media jumping today when he posted an image of Jay-Z and Beyoncé on his Instagram feed and captioned it “family.”
Adding fuel to the idea that the relationship between the three was on the mend, fans noted Beyoncé was wearing Yeezy footwear as proof the queen was endorsing an improved relationship with West.
While the shoes are very much of a copy of a Yeezy Season 5 wedge (launched in July 2017), they were actually made by Public Desire.
Whether or not the shoes are Yeezy, West referring to the couple as family has reignited rumors West started when on September 8th he tweeted, “throne2 coming soon,” a reference to West and Jay’s 2011 Watch the Throne album. As well, West followed up the image of the married couple with a Roc-A-Fella diamond emoji.
Beyoncé and Jay have had a strained relationship with West ever since he went off on them in a concert in November 2016. Subsequently, Jay confirmed in an interview with Elliott Wilson in August 2017 that he and West were not in a good place.
