Was Beyoncé’s Tribute to Uncommonly Seen Knight Overlooked by Fans at Cowboy Carter Event?

Beyoncé knows just how to shine the spotlight on her son, Sir Carter, despite keeping him away from the public eye.

Amid her ongoing “Cowboy Carter” tour, the record-breaking singer took time out to celebrate her twins, Rumi and Sir Carter, turning eight years old.

However, beyond the public spectacle, Beyoncé paid a special tribute to her only son, who has faced attacks from celebrities like Kanye West.

During the fourth stop of the Cowboy Carter tour in London, Beyoncé shone the spotlight on her younger kids, making the day all about them.

While Rumi enjoys the spotlight and basks in the love of her fans, her brother, Sir, tends to stay out of the limelight. However, Queen B ensured that his presence was subtly acknowledged.

During Thursday’s performance, keen fans spotted a rubber duckling charm attached to the microphone stand. A video of Beyoncé singing “Alligator Tears” while the charm dangled has been making rounds on social media.

Speculation arose among fans when a user on X pointed out the duck charm and Beyoncé saying ‘peanut butter jelly’ during a previous show. The question was raised: Did Beyoncé perhaps lose a bet with Rumi and Sir?

However, it didn’t take long for the Beyhive to unravel the mystery behind the hidden gesture. Fans referenced a revelation from Tina Knowles’ 2025 memoir, “The Matriarch,” where she allegedly shared one of her grandsons’ favorite hobbies.

“Ms Tina said Sir gets up early and goes to the swing [and] feeds the ducks. He loves it in the Hamptons,” a user explained. “Loves his books and loves to spell, she said.”

The doting grandmother previously mentioned that Sir is an avid reader in a March 2025 interview with E! News. Ms. Knowles said the introverted preschooler has a favorite story about “the smallest tree being the most powerful tree.”

The famous momager explained, “It ends up being the most powerful tree and saving the day, and he loves that book!”

Ms. Knowles further noted that while her grandson is reserved, he is “very, very smart” and “does all of the numbers stuff.”

While Queen Bey rarely speaks about her children, there is no doubt they are the center of her world.

She made that obvious on June 12 when she called on fans at the Tottenham Hotspur studio to celebrate her twins. “Everybody say happy birthday, Rumi,” the 43-year-old urged the roaring crowd.

Beyoncé was in full mother mode as she sweetly hugged Rumi, the celebrant, while big sister Blue Ivy stood by her right. The little one seemed thrilled about the shout-out from fans.

“Say happy birthday, Sir! Mommy loves you,” the 35-time Grammy winner continued, as seen in the clip shared on social media. Beyoncé then dotingly planted a sweet kiss on Rumi before continuing her performance.

The global popstar welcomed her twins, Sir and Rumi Carter, in June 2017 alongside her husband, Jay-Z.

Beyoncé didn’t confirm the news of her twins’ arrival until July, when she marked their first month’s birthday on Instagram with their first-ever photos.

Although not in the limelight like their big sister, the twins feature in some of their mother’s famous projects. Beyoncé’s 2020 “Black Is King” visual album was dedicated to her son, Sir.

Rumi, on the other hand, was featured on her country album, “Cowboy Carter.” She has also been a part of the ongoing tour since its first show in April 2025.
