Did you ever notice that your ex-boyfriends have a funny way of receiving clarity once the relationship is over and you’re completely over them? Yeah, me too. It happens to the best of us— even Grammy Award-winning singer Beyonce Knowles.
A man by the name of Lyndell Locke, who claims to be the high school sweetheart of Mrs. Carter, recently opened up to The Sun about their alleged 9-year relationship, his cheating ways and losing her to Jay Z. If the name sounds familiar to you, it’s may be because Lyndell also came out in 2009 to discuss their relationship. Check out a few highlight from his recent interview below.
On loving and losing Bey:
“Beyonce was the love of my life and I was hers, so losing her is still my biggest regret. She would say to me all the time, ‘I’m afraid to ever live my life without you Lyndall, I want you to be mine for ever’.
I’ll be honest — it was me that messed everything up and lost her for ever to Jay Z, but I deserved it.
Who cheats on a woman as beautiful as Beyonce? Well, I am that man and it’s something that’ll always haunt me.”
On meeting Bey through Kelly Rowland:
“From the first time I saw Beyonce I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. She looked like an angel, the most beautiful girl I’d ever seen. We’d hang out after school and almost every night we’d fall asleep talking to each other on the phone.”
On being unaware they Beyonce could sing:
“She was just so shy, she was a bit of an outcast at school and didn’t even sing in the choir. For two years I didn’t know she could sing. We spent hours watching movies together and playing Connect 4.
Some of our most fun times was when I watched Beyonce, her sister Solange and Kelly performing dance routines. So while I had no idea how good her voice was back then, I certainly knew she could move.”
On their first kiss:
“It was just after Beyonce’s 15th birthday. I surprised her with Brian McKnight concert tickets and it happened that night. I had got popcorn and as we were sitting in our seats I dropped it. As we both went down to grab it we bumped heads, and locked into our first kiss.
We both just looked at each other realizing there was this incredible spark of fireworks between us. It was that fairytale kiss you only hear about in the movies. That was the first feeling of true love between me and Beyonce. Still, to this day, I’ve never had another kiss as passionate as that one.”
