BEYONCÉ, JAY Z, & BLUE IVY VACATION IN ITALY

The Carters escaped to Europe for an early summer vacation. The superstar couple and their daughter Blue Ivy packed their bags and headed to Italy for a lavish getaway, and Queen Bey shared some of the personal pics with her BeyHive on her website.

The “Flawless” singer chowed down on pizza, snacked on gelato, and rode a carousel with Blue. Jay Z also got in on the fun, snapping a photo of his wife in front of the Venice canals, and mom and daughter took some time to smell the roses—literally.

Bey and Jay were in Italy attending the wedding of business mogul Noam Gottesman and his wife, fashion executive Bianca Dueñas, near Florence over the weekend.
