News of the Carter fam’s imminent expansion was always going to send punters absolutely wild, but the metrics on Beyoncé’s twin pregnancy announcement are still a lil’ difficult to believe.
In a rush of appreciation usually reserved for goddamn royalty – so, Beyoncé – Instagram users have made sure her blessed shot is already the most-liked image on the platform. Ever.
