But Beyonce and Jay Z looked like a very happy couple as they left a trendy San Francisco restaurant on Wednesday after a family lunch with daughter Blue.
The trio were seen stepping out of Boulevard restaurant after enjoying an hour long meal of seafood and steaks in a semi-private area which they had reserved.
They had been spotted leaving the luxury St. Regis hotel – where they spent the night together in the $30,000-a-night Presidential Suite – shortly after 1pm as they were chauffeured to the expensive diner.
Beyonce, 32, wore a black hoodie and matching skinny jeans, along with yellow high-top trainers, and carried Blue to the car.
The two-year-old sported a red and white gingham onesie and floral headband, while her father, 44, was clad in a white T-shirt, grey jeans and black dress shoes.
While they were eating a member of their personal security loaded their boot with luggage cases and baby equipment as they prepare to take one month sabbatical from the tour after Wednesday night’s performance.
There were no signs of marital discord as Jay Z and Beyoncé shared a cozy dinner with friends before retiring to their hotel suite together in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
As they stepped off the stage at San Francisco’s AT&T Park, the billion dollar couple were not ushered away in separate cars or separate hotels – after reports claimed that things were so bad between them that they couldn’t even stand to sleep in the same building.
Instead they joined pals including Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.am at the city’s Tosca Cafe – before returning together to the Presidential Suite at the St Regis hotel at 2am.
The suite has its own private entrance via elevator in an underground car park and a source at the hotel confirmed: ‘Jay Z and Beyoncé are staying here together in the Presidential Suite.
‘They chose this room because they have their own way in and out without anybody seeing them.’
The A list couple – dogged by rumors
of an impending split throughout their summer tour – made no effort to separate
once they came off stage on Tuesday night.
Instead, after leaving the concert
venue, they made their way back to the hotel, and after changing, were seen
sitting next to each other as they were driven to dinner.
Arriving at the tiny Italian
restaurant, somewhat of a San Francisco institution, they walked through the
main door and straight through to their private dining room, where they were
joined by five friends.
But music’s own royal couple left
their own party early, sneaking out of a back door just after 2am which is just
yards away from the entrance to a strip joint.
Others continued eating and drinking
as will.i.am was the last man standing out of the front door at 4am.
A witness inside the restaurant told
MailOnline: ‘It was something you could never imagine seeing when Jay and Bey
walked in.
‘Beyoncé smiled at anyone who she
made eye contact with and appeared to be at total ease despite what everyone
has heard.’
However, it seemed that recent
events had shaken rapper Jay Z, as the onlooker said: ‘He did look
uncomfortable and had the look of someone who was trying to keep a low profile,
like he didn’t want to put a toe out of line.
‘I’m not sure what happened because
they left really abruptly while their friends were still happily chatting away
and enjoying themselves.’
The couple returned to the St.
Regis, and will stay there again as they play their final US date for their
joint On The Run tour, which is said to have earned them more than $100
million.
The stunning Presidential suite
costs $30,000 for a night alone and is a staggering 3,200 square foot. It only
has ONE bedroom.
Amid rumors that the couple have
been preparing to separate after their tour ends in Paris next month, Jay Z
mysteriously cut lyrics from his iconic hit Big Pimpin’ during Tuesday night’s
show, proving he may be doing his best to keep his wife.
In the second line of the song he
usually raps ‘Cause I don’t f****** need ‘em’ in reference to women, hinting
he’s too afraid to even consider a future without his wife.
As sources have told MailOnline, the
44-year-old megastar is desperate to take his wife away for duration of the
five-week break they have between tonight’s last show in San Francisco – and
two final dates in Paris on September 12 and 13.
It would be a salve to any issues
the pair have been having, as the New York Post reported things had becomes so
tense they had been staying in separate hotels rooms while on tour – and
claimed that Beyonce had launched a hunt for her own Manhattan home.
While Radar Online reported that
Beyonce has also taken comfort from close friend Gwyneth Paltrow, staying at
the Oscar winner’s LA home over the weekend.
Execs allegedly wished to release a statement, which Beyoncé and Jay-Z are said to have opposed, disagreeing upon what it should say.
‘There are lawyers that have now joined the tour, and they’re not here just to see them perform. They are here to help hash things out,’ a source told the Post.
Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino and HBO chief Richard Plepler reportedly called for the meeting before ‘this becomes a public-relations nightmare,’ the insider added.
However, a spokesman for HBO insisted to MailOnline the network will shoot the dates in France and air the concert on September 20.
What is certain is that HBO cameras have been following the couple throughout their 10-week tour, but a source said: ‘There’s no way anything contentious will be allowed on air, no matter what the cameras picked up.’
