What’s The Right Thing To Do When Your Spouse And Sibling Are Fighting?

Unless you’ve taken a vacation into outer space, you’ve heard about the now-infamous altercation between songstress Solange Knowles and her brother-in-law Jay Z that was caught on an elevator surveillance camera as Soloange, Jay Z, Beyonce, and the family bodyguard Julius were headed home from last week’s Met Gala after party.

While hundreds of conspiracy theories continue to emerge regarding what could have possibly caused sissy-poo Solo to go full Power Ranger on Hov in a cramped elevator, the other theories circulating question Beyonce’s actions as the whole thing went down. Did she do the right thing by doing the bare minimum and pretty much staying out of the brief but brutal confrontation?

Some say the motto should be “family over everything” no matter what, while others say that Mrs. Carter should have done more to get her sister in check, thus siding with her husband.

But what is the “right thing” to do in that situation?

If Solange had good reason to spazz on Jay (which has been widely speculated due to Beyonce’s relatively calm demeanor during the attack), was Bey right to let her sister attack him and only step in briefly when absolutely necessary? And if it was Solange who was in the wrong, should Beyonce have defended her husband against her raging sister?

What would you have done? Let’s discuss.
