Solange Knowles and celebrity couple, Jay Z and Beyoncé, are now opening up about the shocking elevator altercation footage that made headlines recently and caused many fans to raise their brows.

It has been reported that during an elevator ride at a Met Gala after-party, Solange Knowles, Jay Z and his wife Beyoncé got involved into what seemed a family drama straight from the big screen.

A leaked footage of their elevator ride show Solange Knowles violently attacking her sister's hubby, Jay Z, while Beyoncé is all cold and impassive of the situation. It's fortunate that a body guard, who was with them the entire ride, intervened and even attempted to contain the situation by pressing an emergency button from time to time.

However, as of today, it seems Beyoncé, Jay Z, and Solange Knowles are now willing to put the past behind them and move on as one happy family.

The Associated Press published Thursday a joint statement that was said to be from the trio. The statement reads:

"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're no different. We love each other and above all we are family. We've put this behind us and hope everyone else will do the same."

It can be noted that on May 12, TMZ released a leaked security footage of the elevator altercation between Solange Knowles and Jay Z, and since then many fans are left in the dark on the primary reason that led to the incident.

Amid the viral video, several media sites noticed very suspicious gestures from the three celebs. First, Solange reportedly deleted all but one of her sister Beyoncé's photos in her Instagram account.

Meanwhile, the "Halo" singer posted a cryptic message/prayer on her Instagram account, and even shared several photos of her and her sister on the said social media platform.

In return, Solange Knowles posted a Throwback Thursday pic of her and her older sister in her account, People reported.

Meanwhile, between Beyoncé and Jay Z, things are perceived to be bleak. In a recent appearance at the Brooklyn Nets playoff game, photos of the two with their faded wedding ring tattoos sparked controversy online, according to E! Online. Now fans are speculating that the power house couple's relationship may be walking on thin ice.
