The story behind the answer

Alicia Keys married music producer Swizz Beatz in 2010.

Keys and Swizz Beatz became romantically involved after years of knowing each other through the music industry. They announced their engagement and pregnancy in May 2010, then married on July 31, 2010, in a private ceremony on the French island of Corsica. The ceremony was officiated by Deepak Chopra.

Swizz Beatz was born Kasseem Daoud Dean and became known for producing and co-writing hip-hop and R&B tracks. Alicia Keys is a singer, songwriter, pianist, and record producer whose debut album, “Songs in A Minor,” was released in 2001 and won five Grammy Awards.

The couple have two sons, Egypt and Genesis. Swizz Beatz also has children from previous relationships, so reports about the family may refer either to the couple’s children together or to their blended family. Their marriage followed Keys’ earlier professional collaborations with Dean.
