The picture is reminiscent ofBey’s pregnancy announcement, which shook the internet in February. Within 30 minutes of debuting on Instagram, the twins’ debut had received more than 1 million likes.
The twins, who turned 1 month old on Thursday, were the latest addition to Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s family, alongside 5-year-old daughter Blue Ivy.

“So Happy my baby shared a photo of her babies with the world ❤️❤️❤️proud grandma hello Sir Carter and Rumi Carter❤️🙏🏾❤️ 7/13/2017 Boy and girl what a blessing ❤️,”she wrote in an Instagram caption, which helped clarify that Sir’s full name is “Sir Carter,” not “Sir Carter Carter.”
