For Beyoncé fans in the United States who planned to sleep tonight, well, the artist broke the internet again on Friday by posting the first image of her month-old twins. She has called them Sir Carter and Rumi. They join five-year-old sister Blue Ivy.
The photo is said to be the fastest one to have gotten one million likes, which it managed to do in 23 minutes.
The musician’s new post is the most-liked one on Instagram. In February, she had posted an image announcing her pregnancy, which had also gone viral.
She and husband Jay-Z were rumoured to have filed a trademark for the babies’ names.
Predictably, her fans are setting Twitter on fire.
