**”Ashanti Glows in $160 Black Akira Embellished Mini Shirt Dress as She Shares Pregnancy News”**
Let me know if you’d like a more playful, formal, or editorial tone!
Ashanti, best known for her hit song “Baby,” has just shared some exciting news—she’s expecting a child with her boyfriend, Nelly. She made the announcement on Instagram Wednesday afternoon, finally putting an end to all the buzz and speculation about her noticeable baby bump.
To reveal the news, Ashanti posted a playful video with the caption “Baby baby baby baby…”. Staying true to her signature style, she wore a $160 black mini shirt dress from Akira, decorated with rhinestones, and topped it off with a mink vest for a bit of extra flair.
In the video, she’s backstage at the Barclays Center, getting ready for a performance. Her mom, Tina Douglas, asks how much longer she’ll need to get ready, and Ashanti jokingly responds that she’ll need about nine months.
This joyful announcement comes after she and Nelly rekindled their relationship last year. The two originally began dating in 2003, and now, nearly 20 years later, they’re back together and preparing to welcome their first child as a couple.
It’s Ashanti’s first baby and Nelly’s fifth. Wishing them all the happiness as they start this new chapter together!
