Beyonce Knowles` mother denied her pregnancy
The `Halo` hitmaker was reported to be expecting her first child with her hip-hop superstar husband Jay-Z, but her mother Tina Knowles has rubbished the rumours and joked she is having a baby at the age of 56.
Tina said: "The truth is that`s it`s not Beyonce that`s pregnant. It`s me.
"I`m kidding y`all. I`m 56. No, no the reports are not true. Not right now ? With all the rumours, by now I should have 5 or 6 grandchildren."
However, Tina`s claims do not appear to have reached friends of the couple - who married in 2008 - and they have been rushing to express their delight saying they will make wonderful parents.
Record executive Kevin Liles - a close friend of Jay-Z - said: "Jay has been all about family since I met him, and he`s always going to be. I wish them the best."
Beyonce`s sister Solange added: "She`s got the most beautiful heart. She`ll be a great mom."
Earlier this year, Beyonce, 29, insisted she would start a family when she is ready.
She said: "My ambition is to continue to learn about the world and to eventually have a family. There are no dates, no times - it will happen when I am ready."
