Jay-Z recently opened up about his infidelity.

• Music industry titans Jay-Z and Beyoncé have been married since 2008.

• According to Forbes, the couple's net worth comes out to a total of $1.16 billion.

• The pair now have three children: Blue Ivy, and twins Rumi and Sir.

Ever since they collaborated on the song "'03 Bonnie & Clyde" back in 2002, Beyoncé and Jay-Z have been a match made in musical heaven.

Tabloids were quick to speculate whether or not the duo had more than a professional relationship. But even after they tied the knot in 2008, the couple has largely kept quiet about their romance.

But that doesn't mean it's always been smooth sailing for the "Crazy in Love" couple.

In a recent interview with New York Times executive editor Dean Baquet, Jay-Z opened up about his infidelity, which Beyoncé alluded to in her acclaimed visual album Lemonade.

"You shut down all emotions," the rapper told Baquet. "So even with women, you gonna shut down emotionally, so you can't connect... In my case, like it's, it's deep. And then all the things happen from there: infidelity."

Jay-Z went on to reveal the couple used their craft "like a therapy session," making music together in order to heal. The sessions ultimately resulted in reconciliation, along with Lemonade and Jay-Z's album 4:44.
