Beyoncé Shares Intimate Moments with Blue Ivy & Twins Sir and Rumi in ABC Special 'Making the Gift'
Beyonce's rarely publicized twins are featured in the documentary that takes viewers into the making of "The Lion King: The Gift." Their adorable moments are captured as they joined their mother, sister, and father in Africa for the production of the album.
Even after Beyonce’s “Lion King” film has shown, there is still a lot of buzz surrounding her participation in the movie and the film’s soundtrack which we now learn was also a family affair.
FEELING BLESSED TO SHARE HER WORK WITH HER FAMILY
In the new documentary, “Making the Gift” which takes fans behind the scenes of the album, “The Lion King: The Gift,” it is revealed that Beyonce’s whole family was part of it, including her rarely publicized twins, Rumi and Sir.
At the beginning of the special which aired on ABC, Beyonce narrates that it was an “emotional experience” for her visiting Africa with her brood.
“It feels like I'm making peace with a part of me that's yearning for my ancestral connection,” she says. “I was blessed to be able to relive some of the experiences that I've been very fortunate to have over the years with my entire family."
Simultaneously, footage of her twins strapped into their car seats are flashed as they cruise along an African highway. Beyonce’s older daughter, Blue Ivy is also seen admiring the view. Likewise, her husband, Jay-Z sits on one side and looks out the window.
“When you're a mother, there's a love that you experience with your kids that's deeper than anything you can imagine. The love is beyond Earth and beyond time and space, and it's a connection that will be constant."
A SPECIAL COLLABORATION WITH BLUE IVY
The documentary shines the light on the love and passion Beyonce (as its producer) and the rest of her team put into making the album. An important aspect of it was her daughter, Blue’s collaboration with her in one of the album’s tracks, “Brown Skin Girl.” Speaking about the song, Beyonce expresses pride.
"When I see fathers singing 'Brown Skin Girl' to their daughters, to know that my daughter can have the same opportunities and feel confident and feel like she doesn't have to take her braids down and she can comb her afro out and she can glisten in her brown skin... That is why I make music."
A RARE APPEARANCE FOR HER TWINS
As for Beyonce’s twins, this is probably the most we’ve seen of them since they were born. They appear in short instances in the documentary. An adorable moment shows Rumi responding to her mother when asked what the cow says. She replies, “Moo.”
The last time we saw a glimpse of the 2-year-old twins was during Beyonce and Jay-Z’s “On the Run II” tour where they shared images from their renewal of vows in the presence of all their children.
Though she seldom shares her kids to the world, Beyonce’s love for them overflows. In her latest documentary, she describes that love.
“When you're a mother, there's a love that you experience with your kids that's deeper than anything you can imagine. The love is beyond Earth and beyond time and space, and it's a connection that will be constant."
We hear her and we’re certain all other mothers can relate to this.
