When you find out you're pregnant, you're most likely going to tell your family first and foremost.

But if you don't have a good relationship with a certain family member they may just find out through others.. or Instagram. 

Yup, it turns out that when Beyonce became preggas, she decided to not tell her Dad, and he found out the same way the rest of the world did: Instagram. 

Speaking to Insider, Matthew Knowles said, "I was shocked. Let me tell you what happened. I got a first text, and I was like, 'Why is this person saying congratulations?'"

"Then I get a second text from one of my students at Texas Southern, and I was like, 'What are you talking about?' He was like, 'Go to the web.' I didn't know myself."

He went on to reveal that after seeing the post, he quickly jumped on the phone to speak to his daughter, "I was like 'B,' [and] she said, 'Hi, Dad.' I was like, 'You're OK?' Because she sounded a little tired because she's working on the Grammy performance."

"We just had a wonderful daughter-dad conversation. [But] I'm not gonna tell you all of that...Beyoncé and I had a great conversation. I'm looking forward to seeing her soon and I told her, 'Look, slow down a little bit. You need to slow down a little bit.'"

"I'm extremely, extremely proud and happy, both with Jay and her. And Blue Ivy is gonna have some brothers and sisters. Blue Ivy is already excited."
