Alicia has been married since July 2010 to Swizz Beatz, 42.

‘I have two Capricorns, my sons, and both of them are the most emotional people I’ve ever met,’ she said of Genesis and Egypt.

She also talked about what a regular morning looks like for her now that her children have been alternating between in-person and remote schooling.

‘I try to wake up at 5:30. I want some things before the day goes away and then I can never get it back. I love to do my meditation early and usually piggyback that with a workout,’ Alicia said of her morning routine,

‘I’ll be done maybe at 6:30, 6:45, and then I’ll start to wake the kids up. It takes me a hundred years to wake them up. We leave the house about 7:40 and bring them to school,’ she added.
