" Well, FINALLY. Beyonc\u00E9 and Jay Z have issued a statement to the Associated Press regarding the elevator incident seen &amp;#039;round the world:  &amp;quot;As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident. But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it. Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred. They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family. The reports of Solange being intoxicated or displaying erratic behavior throughout that evening are simply false. At the end of the day families have problems and we&amp;#039;re no different. We love each other and above all we are family. We&amp;#039;ve put this behind us and hope everyone else will do the same.&amp;quot; Of note: Beyonc\u00E9 is not mentioned in this statement at all, which must be her way of saying, &amp;quot;I woke up like this and this is not my problem.&amp;quot; RELATED: 11 Things Only the Most Hardcore Fans Know About Beyonc\u00E9 The 18 Emotional Stages of Buying Beyonc\u00E9 Tickets 23 Magical Things That Would Happen if Beyonc\u00E9 Went to Hogwarts Follow Eliza on Twitter.
