What Ashanti & Nelly Said About More Kids On The Red Carpet

As mentioned, the couple paused their red carpet strut to speak to E! News. At one point, the reporter said she heard Nelly wanted more kids and turned to ask Ashanti her thoughts. The singer immediately replied, “Let’s go,” while the rapper clarified that it was “the other way around.” They both laughed, but Shanti also tripled down, wanting to spin the mommy block again. She said her son makes her want to have “one or two more.” They welcomed their son, Kareem, in July 2024, but fans have yet to catch a sneak peek at their mini-me. Watch the hilarious baby talk below. 

Singer’s Previous Comments About Having More Kids 

That wasn’t the first time she talked to E! News about having more children. She also spoke on the topic in late February, admitting that she feels “amazing, incredibly pleased, humbled.” As for welcoming more kids, she confirmed they planned to “add some more.” She prefers to have a girl “to balance it out.”

A few days later, she spoke on the topic again on an episode of TODAY with Jenna & Friends. She said she’s “absolutely” imagining having baby number two, but maybe not too, too soon. “I definitely want more kids, but maybe not right this second,” Ashanti added.

So, will baby number two become a reality for Ashanti and Nelly in 2025? At this point, only time will tell.
