00:12Ashanti got one mother of a surprise ahead of welcoming her and Nelly's first child together.
00:18The pregnant singer was adorably shocked upon realizing her hip-hop star beau had purportedly arranged a baby shower for her at a Dolce & Gabbana baby boutique in New York City on June 30th.
00:30Photos and video have circulated on social media from the couple's friends, including rapper Fat Joe, and one clip shows Ashanti admitting to party guests that she had no idea what was in store when she and Nelly arrived to the venue.
00:43Oh my God, I thought I was coming to a photo shoot.
00:52I'm in shock. Thank you guys so much. I love you guys. I appreciate you.
00:57The songstress bared her growing belly in a breezy white and yellow two-piece ensemble for the event, and she and Nelly beamed while he recalled the now-viral moment he hugged her to break the ice during a 2021 vs. battle.
01:11I didn't want it to be uncomfortable. I did not want it to be uncomfortable. I said they were having a great time. I said I feel like it was tension in the building. I just said it felt like it was tension. I said let me break the ice.
01:25I said let me break the ice, and then I went over, but what everybody missed, they was like, yo, look at Megan Thee Stallion, but they didn't see that nice rub on my back.
01:36Fans were thrilled to see the pair rekindled their romance two years later, more than a decade after they first parted ways.
01:45The music stars confirmed their engagement and Ashanti's pregnancy in April, and it seems they also have another major milestone to celebrate.
01:53Records obtained by multiple outlets in recent weeks indicate that Ashanti and Nelly privately married in Missouri in December 2023, though they have yet to publicly confirm the news.
02:04For now, they couldn't seem happier ahead of new parenthood, and their famous pals are sending all their love and support.
02:11Fat Joe and his wife Lorena posed with the couple at the baby shower, with the rapper offering his congrats in a heartfelt caption, writing,
02:19Today we had a baby shower. I love you my sister. I'm so happy for y'all guys. God is great.
02:34I love you guys. God is great. God is great. God is great.
