Beyonce and Jay-Z were all smiles as they attended a book launch together in New York last night (8th May).

The new parents left baby Blue Ivy Carter at home for a night to join guests at friend Erica Reid’s book launch for The Thriving Child.

Jay-Z wore a casual denim jacket and t-shirt for the outing, while Bey showcased her incredible post-baby figure in a figure-hugging teal dress.

The pair looked very much in love as Jay-Z tenderly cupped Bey’s face as they spoke to other guests.  Mary J Blige also joined Bey and Jay at the launch of Reid’s new book, which tells her story of dealing with children who suffer from common allergies.
