AceShowbiz - Nelly and Ashanti are ready to start a family. Around two months after revealing that they got back together, the "Just a Dream" hitmaker declared that he and his on-again girlfriend are trying to have a baby.
The 49-year-old made the confession after a fan wrote in an Instagram comment, "Get her pregnant @nelly [crying laughing emoji] TONIGHT!!" In response, the emcee simply replied, "I'm on it."
Nelly confirmed his reconciliation with Ashanti in mid-September. "Yeah, we cool again. I think it surprised both of us though. It wasn't anything that I don't think was planned," Nelly told "Love and Hip Hop" stars Rasheeda and Kirk Frost in a new interview.
Nelly believes spending so long apart from one another has been helpful with their reunion because the distance allowed them to "understand" each other and their relationship better. He explained, "I think we both were pretty much doing what we do, but sometimes being separate you understand one another more."
"You be like, 'Yo, let me see exactly what they see,' " he elaborated further. "You know, because we all can be defensive sometimes in our own relationships. We know we wrong but we going to stand on it. But we all a victim to that."
Earlier this month, Nelly received a vintage 1962 Impala from Ashanti for his 49th birthday. Grateful for the present, he gushed on Instagram, "Sometimes all you can say is 'Thank You' Best gift I ever received besides my kids!!!! You showed out shawty!!! Love you @ashanti."
The post did not go unnoticed by Ashanti. In the comment section, she replied, "Ur welcome bighead! Your face was priceless! love u too! Pound town soon as I get back to the house!"
