Ashanti Throws Star-Studded 51st Birthday Bash for Husband Nelly
For his 51st birthday, Ashanti rented out a private room at the trendy Lo Kee Atlanta restaurant and invited 50 of her closest friends and family, including rapper Bow Wow and producer Jermaine Dupri. The modern Asian fusion restaurant was abuzz with excitement as the singer and "Dilemma" emcee celebrated his special day in style.
On Saturday night, Nelly and Ashanti arrived at the venue around 10:30 p.m., where they were greeted by their A-list guests. The couple, who secretly tied the knot in December 2023 after a decade-long romance, dined on Beijing chicken, chicken satay, rock shrimp tempura, and salt and pepper prawns.
Their birthday bash was filled with all the trappings of an exclusive party. Ashanti even serenaded Nelly with a sweet rendition of "Happy Birthday," which was followed by a screening of Game 7 of the World Series featuring the Los Angeles Dodgers' victory over the Toronto Blue Jays.
In an exclusive interview, Ja Rule praised Ashanti's motherhood skills, saying she has been manifesting this moment for a long time and that Nelly is one lucky man to have her. With Bow Wow and Jermaine Dupri in attendance, the party was undoubtedly one for the books.
It seems that Nelly and Ashanti are living their best life together, having rekindled their romance after 10 years apart. Their whirlwind romance has been filled with excitement, including a marriage license obtained just six months prior to the wedding. The couple welcomed their first child, Kareem Kenkaide Hayes, in July 2024.
As Nelly celebrated his birthday in style, it's clear that he is one lucky man to have such an amazing partner by his side.

. Like, Ashanti and Nelly are already married after 10 years apart, they just put a ring on it in Dec '23... what's the real story here? Were they even together for those 10 years or was that just some fancy breakup/reunion story? 
And now they're just living their best life with a kid on the way, I'm sure it's all just one big marketing ploy 
. Give me a break...
