With the help of luxury clothing brand Dolce & Gabbana, Nelly held it down on baby shower duties for his wife, Ashanti.
The couple, who are expecting their first child together, attended the special occasion at a D&G store in New York City, where among the attendees were Fat Joe and his wife, Lorena Cartagena. Joey Crack has long joked that his 2021 Verzuz battle against Ja Rule was the cause of Ashanti and Nelly reconciling after the couple had been broken up for a decade.
Clips from the event show a surprised Ashanti emerging from an elevator, where she was greeted by family and friends. Another video showed Nelly joking about his Verzuz reunion with Ashanti, where he recalled there being "tension" among them before he walked over to her to "break the ice."
The conversation worked out for the best, since Ashanti and Nelly have been inseparable since their reunion, and the "Happy" singer has been glowing throughout her pregnancy, which she announced in April.
After she gives birth, the R&B singer has plans to tie the knot with Nelly in a tropical-themed wedding, telling Entertainment Tonight last month that she's anticipating "a combination of fashion, glam, Caribbean vibes."
"I have to have a beach and ocean and sunshine and palm trees," Ashanti told ET in the video below.
