Nelly and Ashanti are Instagram official after the rapper’s gushing birthday post to the singer.
"One special moment for the birthday girl," Nelly, aged 48, wrote alongside a series of photos on Instagram on Friday, October 13. The photos captured Nelly and Ashanti smiling together. "She is undeniably beautiful, both inside and out, and truly one of the most dedicated and hardworking women I know," he continued. "@ashanti, have a fantastic day, Ma! You look stunning! Happy Birthday! Love ya!"
Ashanti, who turned 43, responded with, "Awwwwww Thank you, Big head!!!!!!!!! Love ya!!!!"
Ashanti expressed gratitude for the incredible year she has had and how at peace she feels with all areas of her life. She admitted that she posted her birthday message late because she had to work the previous night. She emphasized the importance of having peace in all aspects of life, considering the current state of the world. Ashanti expressed her gratitude for being able to create her own sanctuary and escape from the chaos. She thanked her followers for their love and support, mentioning how much it means to her. According to a source, Ashanti and her ex-boyfriend are taking things slow after getting back together.
According to a source, Ashanti and Nelly are now spending time together and enjoying each other's company, something that Ashanti wouldn't have expected a few years ago. They are taking things slow and not rushing into anything. In April, rumors of their reconciliation began when they were spotted holding hands at a Las Vegas boxing match. Ashanti later posted a video on her Instagram Story, where Nelly's hoodie was visible. In August, Nelly shared a video on his Instagram Story of them dancing to an Usher song.
Nelly confirmed their reunion in September during an interview on "Boss Moves with Rasheeda." He expressed, "Yes, we have reconciled. It was surprising for both of us, as it was not premeditated."
Shortly after the interview aired, Ashanti made an appearance at the 2023 Video Music Awards in Newark, New Jersey. Despite attending the event without a companion, she confidently walked the red carpet while clutching a purse that showcased a picture of her and Nelly happily posing for the camera.
