Celebrated singer Ashanti is expectant with her first child with boyfriend Nelly.
This will be her first child and Nelly’s third child as he has two kids currently.
Nelly, 49, shares daughter Chanelle, 29, and son Cornell Haynes III, 24, with ex Channetta Valentine.
Have they made the news public?
Ashanti, 43, first sparked pregnancy speculation over the weekend when she attended Nelly’s Black and White Ball in St. Louis with her partner.
During the event, singer put her hand on her stomach while on stage with Nelly and he did the same.
According to a fan video shared by TMZ, the couple broke into laughter after seemingly hinting that they are expanding their family.
Ashanti and Nelly dated on and off from 2003 to 2013 after meeting during a Grammy Awards press conference.
In September, Nelly confirmed they were back together during an interview with Love and Hip Hop stars Rasheeda and Kirk Frost.
‘Yeah, we cool again,’ he gushed when asked if they had rekindled their romance.
