Ashanti isn’t shy about her love for her husband Nelly

The pair’s romance has been a hot topic for over two decades. From their initial dating in the mid-00s to their shock breakup to their even more surprising reunion after a chance encounter at Verzus.

This year, the ‘Body On Me’ performers, who confirmed that they got married last December, welcomed their first child Kareem Kenkaide.

And the celebrations continued this past weekend as Nelly toasted his 50th birthday with a Gold-themed bash at Tao Las Vegas.

Organized by Ashanti, other notable names in the building included Kevin Hart, T.I., and Kandi Burruss.

Speaking backstage at the extravaganza, Ashanti was filled with all sorts of appreciation for her man.
