Nelly & Ashanti’s Unborn Baby Receives Special Message From ‘Uncle’ Lloyd
It’s heartwarming to see the love and anticipation surrounding Nelly and Ashanti’s upcoming addition to their family, with a special message from “uncle” Lloyd.
Lloyd shared a touching moment on Instagram, posting a picture of himself serenading Ashanti’s belly on stage. In his caption, he addressed the unborn child, expressing the love and positive energy surrounding them even before their arrival. Lloyd promised to share stories with the baby about singing to them in the womb, the impact Ashanti and Nelly had on his life, and the support he received from Nelly when needed.
Ashanti was deeply moved by Lloyd’s words, expressing her gratitude and emotion in the comments. It’s clear that Lloyd’s message touched her heart deeply.
The post reflects the joy and excitement as they eagerly await the arrival of the newest member of their circle.
In a recent update, Ashanti gave fans a glimpse into Nelly’s reaction upon learning the happy news about their impending arrival, and it might not have been quite what many expected.
Ashanti took to Instagram earlier this month to share a heartwarming video of her revealing the pregnancy news to her fiancé during a FaceTime call. The video includes additional footage from the original pregnancy reveal, where Ashanti jokingly informed her mother and manager, Tina Douglas, about needing “about nine months” while gearing up for a show.
The behind-the-scenes clip, spanning six hours, documents Ashanti and her team’s journey to Brooklyn for the concert. Along the way, they engage with fans, capture moments, and, most importantly, share the exciting news with Nelly.
“We pregnant!” she tells the St. Louis rapper over the phone while he’s recording in the studio.
Rather than jumping for joy, however, Nelly stared into the camera for several moments before cracking a smile and replying: “I already knew!”
Shortly after Ashanti announced her pregnancy in April, Essence published an interview with the 43-year-old in which she also confirmed her engagement to Nelly.
“This new year of my life is such a blessing full of love, hope, and anticipation,” she said. “Motherhood is something that I have looked forward to, and sharing this with my family, fiancé, and loyal fans, who have been so supportive of my career, is an amazing experience.”
