Ashanti was speechless when Nelly surprised her with a baby shower at the opulent Dolce & Gabbana baby boutique in New York City.
One of Ashanti’s favorite clothing brands hosted the baby shower of a lifetime.
Ashanti, expecting her first child with Nelly, could not contain her excitement as she entered the beautifully decorated venue. Wearing a stunning bright yellow and white patterned maxi dress that accentuated her pregnancy glow, she was greeted by a chorus of cheers and applause from guests gathered to celebrate the growing family.
Videos circulating online capture the heartwarming moment Ashanti walks into the venue, completely unaware of the festivities that await her. As the lift doors open, she is greeted by a crowd of cheering friends and family shouting “Surprise!”.
Ashanti’s emotional reaction is pure joy; she covers her mouth in surprise, and tears well up in her eyes. Nelly, the ever-supportive partner, stands behind her, clapping and beaming with pride.
Another video showed Nelly joking about his Verzuz reunion with Ashanti, saying there was “tension” between them before he approached her to “break the ice.”
Fat Joe and his wife Lorena Cartagena attended the special occasion at a D&G store. Joey Crack has long joked that his 2021 Verzuz battle against Ja Rule caused Ashanti and Nelly to reconcile after the couple had been separated for a decade.
The conversation worked out for the best, as Ashanti and Nelly have been together since their reunion, and the “Happy” singer looked radiant throughout her pregnancy, which she announced in April.
The surprise baby shower, meticulously planned by Nelly and Dolce & Gabbana, included elegant decorations, floral arrangements, and a delectable spread of gourmet delights. Every detail was carefully chosen to reflect the couple’s personal style, resulting in a memorable event for all who attended.
After giving birth, the R&B singer plans to marry Nelly in a tropical-themed wedding, telling Entertainment Tonight last month that she expects “a combination of fashion, glam, and Caribbean vibes.”
