Wendy Has Held Swizz Beatz-Alicia Keys' Secret All This Time

Swizz Beatz is coming clean about his relationship with Alica Keys after denying it for a very, very long time.

On a "Best I Ever Had" remix, Swizz raps:

"Wake up in the morning and my baby cooked me breakfast, A's naked wearing nothing on but a necklace … / Yeah, she say she wanna treat me like a king; I get big gifts so the money ain't a damn thing / She gave me a party at the Guggenheim … What's next? The ring? The baby? She really loves me!"

Which cuts to Wendy, who was there that night at the museum, but because of her respect for Swizz, didn't tell anyone - until now. She has neglected to talk about it because Swizz is one of her few "industry friends". But don't despair, as soon as they break up, it will be back to business as usual.

As for the song, Swizz says: "we're nowhere near ready for a baby or a ring. This whole song is not about Alicia. The part about her cooking breakfast for me naked — she never done that for me." But although he may think Mashonda has forgiven him enough now to go public about his affair with Alicia, his ex-wife's friends are talking. "When he told Mashonda he was dating Alicia, I think she got jealous," says a friend of the couple. Having filed for divorce in February, Mashonda is seeking interim support for their 2-year-old son, Kasseem Jr., arguing that Swizz has slashed his payments. "He's been tightening the screws on her," says a friend of Moshanda. "It's becoming intolerable. Meanwhile, she's seen the charges for jewelry he's bought Alicia in France." During the winter, the heat in Mashonda's Westchester mansion went out. "Swizz wouldn't repair her heat," says her friend. But a pal of Swizz argues, "The house is 30,000 square feet. The heat didn't work in one wing, not where Mashonda and Dean slept. Swizz had been paying all of their bills. On top of that, he was giving her $5,000 a week. His advisers felt that was too much, so now he pays her $3,500 a month, on top of the bills. "Swizz has put settlement offers on the table, but Mashonda won't say what she needs. She just came back from Paris and London. She drives a Bentley Flying Spur and a Cadillac Escalade. I don't think life's too bad for her." Mashonda's friend argues that she's resisted his offers "because he's been less than forthcoming about his true financial picture." Swizz's lawyer, Dan Rottenstreich, insists, "He has taken care of her and his son above and beyond what's required." "An application is pending before the court, where the facts will be developed," Mashonda's attorney Bernard Clair says. source
