Beyoncé famously shared a photo of herself holding Sir and Rumi following their birth, but she shied away from showing their faces. In a still captured from the OTR II performance by Billboard senior editor Hilary Hughes, the mom of three once again poses regally holding two babies, but it turns out they are not the babies. The “family” portrait is juxtaposed with the words “Love Is Universal” displayed on another screen.
