Newly wed Beyonce is back in the studio working on her new album.

The ‘Baby Boy’ singer — who married rapper Jay-Z in a secret ceremony last month — is reportedly holed up in a New York studio working on new material with production duo Chris ‘Tricky’ Stewart and Kuk Harrell.

Tricky said: “She’s a professional. She loves what she does and works her butt off. Right now she’s basically doing three to four songs a day and that’s unheard of.”

Tricky — who has worked with Rihanna and Mariah Carey in the past — also hinted that the former Destiny’s Child singer could be teaming up with her new husband.

He added: “It’s always a possibility. They worked together before, so it may be just a matter of getting the right record.”

Meanwhile, it has been claimed that Beyonce, 26, is pregnant; and the reason for her shotgun wedding to the ’99 Problems’ rapper on April 4 is because she was keen to tie the knot before she had the baby.

A source said: “Beyonce is 100 per cent pregnant, which is why the couple rushed their wedding.

“The wedding was thrown together so quickly because of Beyonce’s strong Christian beliefs.”
