Whoa, Nelly! Ashanti and Nelly have officially welcomed their first child into the world.
On Wednesday, she took to Instagram to post a carousel of photos showing off her post-birth body. In the caption, she wrote, “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 [that] motherhood brings.” On the same day, People ran a story that announced their son, Kareem Kenkaide Haynes, was born on July 18th.
The little one is her first child, and his third. Nelly also adopted his late sister’s two children after she passed from leukemia in 2005.
