But Beyonce appeared unperturbed by the gossip, looking cheerful and carefree in New York on Wednesday.
The 31-year-old looked as if she was jetting off on an island holiday in a patterned canary yellow skirt and round shades as she left her office in Midtown Manhattan surrounded by bodyguards.

Earlier this month Team Beyonce shut down the rumours again telling Gayle King on CBS This Morning that she 'is absolutely positively not pregnant at this time.'
The rumour mill kicked into high gear after Beyoncé cancelled a show in Belgium due to extreme exhaustion and dehydration.
But the Grown Woman singer played coy in early June regarding speculation she is expecting her second child, joking that she hadn't heard about the rumours.

The recent disavowal follows the debut of her latest single Dirty Laundry, which features a confessional narrative appearing to reference her Destiny’s Child cohort’s runaway success since the trio split up to pursue solo careers.
The 32-year-old croons in the song about coming to terms with her friend and former bandmate's rise as a superstar and the feelings of rage that surface in the wake of being left behind.
Despite the apparent lyrical disclosure, Kelly told In Touch: ‘I’m not saying I’m jealous of her [Beyoncé] by any means!
The singer explains that the song is more about her than it is about her childhood friend: ‘It’s basically about me going through some struggles in my life while she [Beyoncé] was doing her thing.’
