Beyoncé and Blue Ivy look like twins in this throwback Instagram post

Family fun: Jay Z and Beyoncé with their daughter Blue Ivy (Picture: Theo Wargo/Getty )

Beyonce has shared a snap of her daughter Blue Ivy - who turned 7 earlier this month - next to an old throwback of herself when she was the same age.

The side-by-side picture had originally been created by an uncredited fan, which Beyonce then picked up and shared to her 123 million followers.

“Someone made this comparison of me at age 7 and Blue at age 7. My baby is growing up” she wrote.

Is this a new spin on the 10 year challenge? We'd love to see a few Kardashian and Royal Family side-by-sides.

Much like her famous parents, Blue Ivy also appears to be a bit of a natural in the spotlight, whether she's stopping their applause during Camila Cabello’s speech at the Grammys or taking to the red carpet in $11k couture.

Beyonce and Jay-Z's brood has expanded as Blue Ivy now has two younger siblings: twins Rumi and Sir Carter.

She said to Vogue of parenting, "As the mother of two girls, it’s important to me that they see themselves, too — in books, films, and on runways. It’s important to me that they see themselves as CEOs, as bosses, and that they know they can write the script for their own lives—that they can speak their minds and they have no ceiling."

She continued, "I hope to teach my son not to fall victim to what the Internet says he should be or how he should love. I want to create better representations for him so he is allowed to reach his full potential as a man, and to teach him that the real magic he possesses in the world is the power to affirm his own existence."
