Speaking to the Daily Mail, Knowles said that her partner, Josh Barker, was definitely not attending, saying he is “where he wants to be”. And, I really can’t blame him.
She also confirmed that the two had no plans on getting engaged, anytime soon.
For now, they’re probably still revelling in $547,000 of prize money.
