Alicia & Swizz Get Real About Their Marriage
As previously reported, Alicia Keys recently opened up about her marriage, and was giving unbothered energy! When asked about the online talk surrounding her and hubby Swizz Beatz, Alicia brushed it off with a smile and let it be known she’s locked in. “I don’t know what anyone’s talking about,” she said coolly. “Me and my baby is on fire.” One thing about Alicia — she’s gonna stand ten toes down behind her man and keep it classy while doing it.
Her response definitely gave “happily married” energy, and it lines up with what Swizz told Us Weekly in March while gushing over their 15-year marriage. The couple, who tied the knot back in 2010, say their secret sauce is solid communication and mutual respect. “We’ve never had an argument. Our kids have… never seen us raise our voice,” Swizz shared. He also made it clear that they don’t try to control each other, saying, “She’s her own boss. I’m my own boss. That’s how we make magic.” Whew — we love a confident couple that knows how to keep the spark alive!
