Beyoncé Knowles, her sister Solange and her husband Jay Z have been pictured together for the first time since video footage emerged of a family row which took place in a hotel lift on the evening of the Met Gala. The trio put on a united front during a family day out in New Orleans, attended by Beyoncé and Solange's mother Tina as well as Solange's boyfriend Alan Ferguson. Jay and Beyoncé's daughter Blue Ivy and Solange's nine-year-old son Daniel were also in tow for the family lunch on Saturday.

The idyllic scene is a far cry from the footage leaked from a hotel recently in which Solange was seen attacking Jay Z. Fans the world over were shocked when images of the 29-year-old being held back by a bodyguard in the lift of The Standard Hotel were released.

Beyoncé, who did not get involved in the incident, has since revealed in a statement that the pair "have both apologised to each other"."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," read the statement.
