the past 2 years have brought me more physical and spiritual transition and evolution than ever before my body left me with no choice but to listen and be still within that stillness i begin my journey in confronting my worst enemy, fear. ive lived my best and worst moments in front of the lens and gaze of the world since i was a teenager. ive always tried to live in my truth no matter how ugly or full of love it is. ive also tried to carve out the space to protect my heart, and my life as it unfolds, evolves, and changes. 11 years ago i met a phenomenal man who changed every existence of my life. early this year we separated and parted ways, (and tho it ain’t nan no body business ??) i find it necessary to protect the sacredness of my personal truth and to live in it fully just as I have before and will continue to do. it is unfair to not have power of your own story as you shape and mold and rewrite it yourself. a nigga ain’t perfect, but im leaning into the fear of the unknown and all the glory and power i know exist within god and the universes grace. may all of your transitions no matter how big or small, be kind to you and filled with incredible love and light!

After years of dating, Solange and Alan tied the knot on 16 November 2014. Guests, including her big sister Beyoncé, Jay-Z and Blue Ivy, were all in attendance at the all white wedding. Vogue shared the pictures exclusively of the beautiful day.

In her post, Solange also shared that her "body" left her "with no choice", which many followers assumed was a confession to rumours she'd been unfaithful with her former manager John Bogaard.

According to Buzzfeed, in a thread of since-deleted tweets, she responded to the accusations writing, "Yo, John [Bogaard] is my former co-manager y'all gotta chill. I'm not about to be silenced into letting complete lies narrate my life. To take my words 'my body left me with no choice but to listen and be still' after speaking about my health journey…which has already been painful enough and turn [it] into an interpretation of unfaithfulness is just…wow.

"I hate to even give this energy, but I will not let something so untrue follow me when I've tried to lead my life in truth. I hope y'all spread this with the same conviction and energy that [you] did that false narrative. Much love."
