"THAT THANG THANGIN….!!!!"

The post took over social media as several users were quick to appreciate the couple’s bond and the husband's public appreciation. One person said:

"I just know he don't play bout herrr"

Many fans and internet users commended Ashanti’s confidence and natural beauty, while others applauded the rapper for publicly celebrating Ashanti.

Ashanti’s collaboration with Apple Bottom was also talked about. Many followers expressed their thoughts on the custom-made Apple Bottom jeans outfit.

Their recent public appearance together was in March at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, where Ashanti was questioned about having another baby. When an interviewer brought up Nelly’s supposed wish for more kids, Ashanti yelled, “LET’S GOOOO!!! ” before laughing, to which the rapper responded with a smile, saying, “It’s the other way around.”

A look into Nelly and Ashanti’s relationship timeline

The couple first met in 2003 at a Grammy Awards event, where Nelly joked and asked for Ashanti’s autograph. Their romantic involvement began shortly thereafter.

The duo had long denied being a couple, though they were frequently photographed together at events. According to People Magazine, they split up after ten years of being together in 2013.

They remained separated for many years until an unexpected reunion in 2021, at the Ja Rule and Fat Joe Verzuz battle. By late 2022 and early 2023, they were spotted holding hands, performing together, and getting out together in public. In September 2023, Nelly confirmed that the couple were dating again.

"We both were pretty much doing what we do, but sometimes being separate, you understand one another more," he said in an interveiw at that time.

The rapper later gave her diamond jewelry for her birthday. The pair secretly tied the knot on December 27, 2023, with Ashanti revealing in April 2024 that she was pregnant. They had their first child together on July 18, 2024, a son named Kareem Kenkaide Haynes.
