Ashanti Confirms Pregnancy and Engagement with Nelly Following Viral Video of Him Performing at Concert with Empty Seats

After months of speculation, singer Ashanti has finally revealed her pregnancy on Wednesday, April 17 with an Instagram video using the caption, “Baby baby baby baby.”

As she prepared to get ready and hit the stage, her “momager,” Tina Douglas, who seemingly confirmed the news last month, asked, “Shan, how much time you need?”

The “Foolish” singer came from behind the curtain and said, “I need about nine months,” as she held up what appears to be a positive pregnancy test.

In an exclusive with Essence magazine, Ashanti also revealed that she and Nelly are now engaged.

“This new year of my life is such a blessing full of love, hope, and anticipation,” she said. “Motherhood is something that I have looked forward to, and sharing this with my family, fiancé, and loyal fans, who have been so supportive of my career, is an amazing experience.”
