Ashanti and Nelly are celebrating the arrival of their first child together, a baby boy named Kareem Kenkaide Hayes, born on July 18, 2024. The announcement was made public on August 21, 2024, by a representative for the couple, who expressed that the proud parents are “absolutely smitten” with their new son.

The couple, who rekindled their romance after a decade apart, had previously announced their engagement alongside the pregnancy in April 2024. Ashanti shared her excitement about motherhood in a heartfelt Instagram post, reflecting on the challenges and joys of her new role. She noted, “Four weeks after giving birth… I’ve been eager to become a mom for a long time, but nothing could have equipped me for ALL that motherhood entails!”.

Nelly, who is 49, is already a father to two children from a previous relationship and has adopted his late sister’s children. Ashanti, now 43, has expressed her long-held desire to become a mother, making this moment particularly special for her. The couple’s journey began over twenty years ago, and after a series of ups and downs, they tied the knot in December 2023, just months before welcoming their son.
