Beyonce Appears To Have Removed Her 'IV' Wedding Tattoo

Amid all the drama of Solangegate , it's become apparent that Beyonce has had a Roman numeral IV tattoo removed from her ring finger .

Back in 2008, Beyonce told Essence magazine that she got the tattoo in lieu of an engagement ring because , "People put too much emphasis on that. It's just material and it's just silly to me."

Instead of a sparkler, the singer wears a band and the Roman numeral, since the couple has an obsession with the number 4 -- or at least they used to.

So what does it mean if Beyonce did removed the tattoo ? It's all speculation so far, much like the multitude of theories as to why Solange lost it on Jay Z after the Met Gala. And while there were reports that Beyonce stormed out of dinner with Jay Z this past weekend, the couple was all smiles when they rolled into the Nets playoff game on May 12, with no signs of marital distress.
