Beyonce said you won’t break her soul, but she never said you won’t break her water.
That’s exactly what happened with actress Sarah Francis Jones.
Both she and her partner, actor Marcel Spear, attended Queen Bey’s birthday show on Monday at SoFi Stadium when she suddenly went into labor as soon as the “Cuff It” singer hit the stage.
“I think it was right after the mute challenge,” Jones laughed to KTLA 5’s Omar Lewis. “Everybody went mute. L.A. did very well… and then I started having contractions.”
This caught the couple by surprise as the baby girl wasn’t due for a few more days. When the contractions started, the “Honey” actress thought they were Braxton Hicks also known as false labor pains.
“I said ‘Something’s happening,’” she explained. “Usually I like to dance at the concert and I was like ‘Okay, I need to sit down for a second.”
When all this went down, Spear said he made sure to keep Jones calm so she wouldn’t lose her breath.
“I also thought it was Braxton Hicks and she was like ‘I’m feeling something’ and I said ‘No, no no, it’s early it’ll pass, we’re okay,’” he said.
“The Neighborhood” actor then started timing the contractions and noticed they were 20 to 30 minutes apart.
“As the concert went on we were like ‘I don’t know about this.’ By the time we got to the car into the parking lot it was full-on intense,” he explained.
The couple released their minds and their stress at the concert, only to essentially release their child into the world hours later.
“The biggest contractions happened during ‘Virgo’s Groove,’” Dad revealed about the song playing during the show.
Not only is the newborn a Virgo but so is Beyonce.
The tiny BeyHive member was almost born on the star’s birthday but just missed it by a few hours. She arrived on Sept. 5.
The couple recorded the entire journey from their video phone and posted two videos on Instagram.
“If we didn’t record it, I don’t think anybody would believe it,” Spear said. “It’s just one of those things that it’s so convenient you’re like ‘Nah that’s not happening,’ but the baby definitely pulled through.”
Baby Nola’s journey to the world has proven she’s indeed that girl.
Her first name is a nod to her dad’s hometown. However, they haven’t figured out a middle name just yet. They are open to something “Beyonce-like.”
For right now, mom and dad are so crazy in love with their new addition.
