Blue Ivy Custody Battle CouId Loom In Jay Z & Beyonce Divorce Proceeding

Blue Ivy could play a huge role the in upcoming divorce battle between her parents Jay Z and Beyonce as the once power couple is setting the wheels in motion for what could be a complicated and expensive divorce.

Sources indicate that the marital problems between Jay Z and Beyonce have grown too big to fix, and that the couple will be officially announcing a split within days. That leaves the custody of Blue Ivy uncertain, with some predicting a bitter custody battle.

The Blue Ivy custody fight could include allegations of infidelity from both Jay Z and Beyonce. As the couple plans to divorce, a source told RadarOnline that both are already laying the groundwork for their custody battle by painting the other partner as a cheater.

Complicating matters is a new lawsuit from one of the rapper’s mistresses claims that the little girl doesn’t belong to Beyonce at all.

Tina Seals, an alleged mistress of Jay Z, is filing a lawsuit claiming that she is the biological mother of Blue Ivy and demanding custody. The claim revives rumors that started in 2011 that Beyonce had faked her pregnancy, which were fueled at the time by some pictures that made it appear that the singer’s baby bump may have been a prosthetic.

Though seen by most as outlandish, an expert told HollywoodLife that that lawsuit could have merit of Tina Seals is truly the mother of Blue Ivy.

“It is entirely possible that a surrogate could come in and have some rights to a child. Even if rights were relinquished in a contract,” Matrimonial Family Expert Leslie Barbara said.

But Tina Seals herself may have some credibility issues. He once tried to sue the U.S government for $5 million claiming that “Barack Obama and company [were] ‘claiming [she was] an AWOL Congresswoman,'” noted The Hollywood Gossip.

Regardless of might happen with the Tina Seals lawsuit, it appears that Blue Ivy will play a big role in the upcoming divorce between Jay Z and Beyonce. Sources close to the couple claim that Beyonce has already set the wheels in motion for a divorce, and plans to officially announce the split after the couple’s summer “On The Run” tour ends in Paris, France.

Amid all the drama, Jay Z and Beyonce are trying to give a bit of normalcy to Blue Ivy. Last week Beyonce posted pictures on her official site showing the couple taking Blue Ivy out to a go-kart track.
