Are there three children who've collectively logged much private air travel than Blue Ivy Carter, Rumi Carter and Sir Carter?

Not that Beyoncé and Jay-Z's kids request to beryllium flying anywhere to execute a definite level of elevation, riding successful benignant being the full family's default setting.

"One of my astir satisfying moments arsenic a ma is erstwhile I recovered Blue 1 time soaking successful the bath with her eyes closed," Beyoncé, who's turning 43 connected Sept. 4, told Harper's Bazaar in 2021, sharing a precise uncommon item astir beingness down the palace-reminiscent walls. "Using blends I created and taking clip for herself to decompress and beryllium astatine peace."

Pretty savvy for a kid who hadn't yet reached treble digits. But the 12-year-old's beingness has always boasted a definite je ne sais quois, adjacent earlier she was a Grammy- and VMA-winning picture of precocity, effortlessly doing Renaissance Tour choreography with her mom's dancers successful beforehand of 70,000 people.

Meanwhile, her dancing gig was expected to beryllium a one-off. But arsenic seen in the documentary Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé, Blue successfully convinced her wary mom that she was acceptable to deed the road.

And we cognize however that turned out.

And arsenic benevolent eldest siblings bash (Beyoncé is 1 too, aft all), Blue has been amiably sharing the throne with 7-year-old Rumi and Sir.

"Rumi is simply a earthy small star," Bey's ma Tina Knowles gushed to E! News' Francesca Amiker successful August, and "will not beryllium denied" should she question the spotlight. (Needless to say, she added, "We got them all, raising them up right.")

And though Sir is "more into books and electronics," according to his doting grandma, some twins person dabbled successful the household business. They made their signaling debut astatine 4 erstwhile they joined forces with their ma and large sister to proviso the vocals for Tina's 2021 Facebook Watch series Talks With Mama Tina.

And it was Rumi's spoken-word publication to "Protector," from Cowboy Carter, that saw her breaking Blue's record for youngest-ever creator to illustration connected the Billboard Hot 100 erstwhile the way debuted astatine No. 42—though Blue remains the youngest to make it onto a Billboard chart.

Rumi is "an astonishing artist," Tina told E! at the Kentucky Derby successful May. "Painter and creator. So, I mean, however could they beryllium thing else, increasing up successful that environment? That's each we speech about, is creativity and manner and the full thing."

Meanwhile, she continued, "Sir is precise quiescent and is very, precise smart—and does each of the numbers stuff. So he's not into the manner worldly arsenic much."

"My 30s were astir starting my household and my beingness becoming much than my career," Beyoncé reflected to Harper's Bazaar erstwhile she turned 40 successful 2021. "I worked to heal generational trauma and turned my breached bosom into creation that would assistance determination civilization guardant and hopefully unrecorded acold beyond me. My 30s were astir digging deeper."

As she entered her 5th decade, she continued, "My privation is for my 40s to beryllium amusive and afloat of freedom. I privation to consciousness the aforesaid state I consciousness connected signifier each time of my life. I privation to research aspects of myself I haven't had clip to observe and to bask my hubby and my children. I privation to question without working. I privation this adjacent decennary to beryllium astir celebration, joy, and giving and receiving love. I privation to springiness each the emotion I person to the radical who emotion maine back."

As Jay-Z noted connected a 2022 occurrence of pal Kevin Hart's Peacock show Hart to Heart, being "reckless" with his clip was nary longer an enactment erstwhile helium became a dad.

"I deliberation the astir stressful happening for maine is balancing enactment and life," Beyoncé told Elle toward the extremity of 2019. "Making definite I americium contiguous for my kids—dropping Blue disconnected astatine school, taking Rumi and Sir to their activities, making clip for day nights with my husband, and being location successful clip to person meal with my family—all portion moving a institution tin beryllium challenging. Juggling each of those roles tin beryllium stressful, but I deliberation that's beingness for immoderate moving mom."

While that uncommon glimpse wrong her backstage satellite sounds beauteous darn relatable, recognition to Beyoncé and Jay-Z for not bothering to unreal that their lives are really conscionable similar everyone else's. From the backstage pics with Madonna, music video cameos and award amusement shout-outs to helicopter rides, yachts and breakdowns of size-6x decorator style, Blue, Rumi and Sir are not having an mean childhood.

And why should they be?

More than a fewer of their chap celebrated parents volition guarantee Jay-Z that's precisely what's going to hap successful a fewer years. But until then, the program remains to ablution the kids with capable emotion and enactment that a fewer fallow years of eye-rolls and slamming doors won't impact the wide dynamic.

"Feeling loved is the astir important happening a kid needs, you know?" Jay-Z told the U.K.'s Times in 2021. "Not 'here's this concern that I'm going to manus implicit to you, that I'm creating for you.'"

Though helium and Bey person so many irons successful the concern occurrence there's seemingly thing for everyone, the Carter children volition beryllium nether nary unit to travel successful either of their parents' immense footsteps, according to their dad.

His and Beyoncé's main intent was to "make definite we supply a loving environment, beryllium precise attentive to who they privation to be," helium explained. "It's casual for us, arsenic quality beings, to privation our children to bash definite things, but we person nary idea. We're conscionable guides."

And whether they're flying backstage oregon commercial, the sky's the limit.
