Beyoncé’s loved ones seem to be taking the spotlight off her this week. Her nephew Julez Smith may have a new romance brewing. The son of Beyoncé’s older sister, Solange, was recently seen with a renowned reality star and social media influencer. This has led to rumors about his dating life with someone significantly older than him.
This report comes amid a candid interview Beyoncé’s husband, Jay-Z, recently gave about his past scandal. Meanwhile, her mother made headlines for the wrong reasons this week.
Julez and Tommie Lee have sparked romance speculation
The internet is going crazy over a video involving Julez recently surfaced. On Tommie Lee’s Snapchat account, Julez is seen giving the Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta star a piggyback ride. The two seem very close and flirtatious as they share smiles during their night out. In the clip, Tommie can be heard calling him “baby” and saying he’s “so fine.”
Many people are shaking their heads about how flirty the two were. That’s because there is a big age gap between them. Julez is 21, whereas Tommie is 20 years his elder. In addition to that, Tommie has six kids while dealing with substance abuse problems in the past.
It’s rare that those close to Beyoncé get more headlines than her. Jay-Z gave an interview with GQ, discussing how the rape lawsuit against him impacted him personally. He and Diddy had been accused of rape in 2024. Jay-Z’s case was eventually thrown out and deemed to be prejudiced. Beyoncé’s mom’s restaurant got temporarily shut down this month after failing to meet health regulations. The Gumbo eatery got a serious customer complaint of someone reportedly vomiting blood from her food.
As for Julez, he’s aiming to make a name for himself in the fashion world. He took part in the famous Paris Fashion Week last year. In 2025, Tommie released a single titled Baddie Bag. She also appeared on an episode of the reality court comedy series Ms. Pat Settles.
