Jay-Z's mom Gloria Carter has finally tied the knot with her long-term girlfriend in an extravagant star-studded ceremony held in an undisclosed location in New York City.
Mama Hov walked down the aisle to wed girlfriend Roxanne Wilshire on Sunday, June 2nd with her famous son, daughter-in-law multi-award winning artist Beyoncé and their daughter Blue Ivy on hand to celebrate.
Part of the A-list celebrities in attendance included Queen Bey’s bestie and former Destiny Child's band member Kelly Rowland, movie director/producer Tyler Perry, Beyonce's mother Tina Knowles, Good Morning America host Robin Roberts, practically the whole Kardashian/Jenner clan, including Kris Jenner's boyfriend Corey Gamble just to mention but a few.
Jay's mom was seen spotting a crisp white suit paired with black leather shoes with white and black skin print at the top. The bride, Roxanne, rocked a gorgeous body hugging golden dress with a v-neckline.
She accessorized it with a simple golden necklace and had her hair down.
Photos of the occasion are very limited as the occasion was very intimate and private. According to TMZ the whole thing wrapped around 1 AM so there was plenty of fun to be had by all.
Jay-Z's been extremely supportive of Gloria, who came out as a lesbian back in his 2017.
On Hoover's 2017’s 4:44, album JAY-Z told the story of finding out about his mother’s struggle to hide her sexuality on his track “Smile," where she jumped on the song to talk about "living in the shadows" as a gay woman.
While Hov later admitted in an interview that Gloria wasn’t okay with the song at first, both of them realized the message was too important not to share with the rest of the world.
He ended up shouting her out at the 2019 GLAAD Media Awards, thanking her for letting him tell her story.
