Alicia Keys and her husband Swizz Beatz always treat each other to luxury birthday gifts.In an interview for the July 2020 issue of U.S.
InStyle magazine, the singer opened up about her humble beginnings growing up in New York and how at different points in her career she struggled to accept her “blessings”.
However, Alicia has since discovered the importance of indulging herself from time to time. “I began to understand that my humility was sometimes a mask for self-worth issues.
I was saying, ‘Oh, I don’t need much! I only need a little bit and I’m fine.’ I was kind of cutting off my blessings. But I started to recognise, ‘Wow, I have this wrong,'” she shared, before going on to note that Swizz always showers her with presents to mark her.
