Congratulations are in order for Nelly and Ashanti
Insiders told the Jasmine Brand on Wednesday that the musicians are expecting their second child together after secretly getting married last December.
The “Foolish” songstress’ pregnancy comes months after she and the rapper welcomed son Kareem Kenkaide Hayne on July 18.
Nelly, 50, and Ashanti, 44, first met at a Grammy Awards press conference in 2003, and have worked on multiple projects together, including their 2008 track “Body on Me” and 2024 song “This Lil’ Game We Play.”
They dated for a decade before parting ways in 2013 and publicly reuniting in Las Vegas for a boxing match in April 2023.
That September, the “Air Force Ones” rapper confirmed he was dating the Grammy winner, admitting their rekindled romance “surprised” them.
He told “Love & Hip Hop” stars Rasheeda and Kirk Frost, “Sometimes being separate you understand one another more.”
According to a marriage license obtained by Page Six, Nelly and Ashanti secretly wed in the rapper’s hometown of St. Louis, Mo., on Dec. 27, 2023.
