Celebrity couple, Ashanti and Nelly have recently shared the joyous news of their newborn baby boy, Kareem Kenkaide Hayes.
Born on July 18, 2024, the couple managed to keep the birth a secret for a solid month before making the public announcement on August 21, 2024.
This revelation was reported by People, with a representative stating, "The proud and happy parents are so in love with KK!"
The couple's ability to maintain privacy around such important life events is notable. Not only did they keep the birth of their child under wraps, but they also managed to keep their marriage a secret until earlier this year.
According to report, Ashanti and Nelly tied the knot on December 27, 2023, in St. Louis County, likely in Nelly's hometown. Ashanti confirmed their engagement in April, describing the proposal as "such a beautiful, intimate moment."
She recounted how Nelly proposed while they were casually lying in bed, watching TV in T-shirts and boxers, which left her "shocked" and overjoyed.
Reflecting on their relationship, Ashanti noted the growth and improvement in their chemistry compared to when they first dated in the early 2000s.
She mentioned, "The growth has been like superb, you know, like on both ends," highlighting how they have matured and learned to handle conflicts better than before.
Ashanti also expressed her excitement about motherhood on Instagram, sharing photos and writing, "Funny how life’s plans aren’t…always on time.. lol. I’ve been waiting to be a mom for a long time now but nothing could prepare me for EVERYTHING motherhood brings! I’m so proud of my body for giving me my baby, baby, baby, baby, baby."
