Ashanti RESPONDS To Nelly’s EX For Dissing Her | Ashanti Stole Nelly? | HO

So it looks like not everybody is excited about Ashanti and Nelly’s wedding and the fact that they are having a baby anytime soon.

While most of us have been happy for the new couple, Nelly’s ex, Shantel, has been acting messy. She has been throwing shade at Ashanti and hinting that Ashanti stole Nelly from her.

It looks like Ashanti is sick and tired of Shantel’s drama and honestly, who wants to deal with all that drama when you’re pregnant?

It looks like not everyone is thrilled about Ashanti and Nelly’s upcoming wedding and the news that they’re expecting a baby. While many fans are happy for the couple, Nelly’s ex, Shantel Jackson, has been stirring up drama, throwing shade at Ashanti and implying that Ashanti stole Nelly from her. Ashanti seems fed up with Shantel’s antics, especially given the added stress of being pregnant. Did Ashanti finally clap back and put Shantel in her place? And did Nelly actually promise to marry Shantel and not Ashanti? Let’s dive into it.

Shantel’s bitterness is understandable since she believed she would marry Nelly, not Ashanti, especially after Nelly and Ashanti’s rocky past. For those unfamiliar, Nelly and Ashanti first met at a Grammy nomination event in 2003. Instead of asking for her number, Nelly asked for her autograph, sparking their romance. They kept their relationship private for a long time, though fans eventually figured it out. Despite publicly denying any romantic involvement, they dated and broke up in 2013 amid rumors of infidelity on both sides.

Nelly’s side claimed Ashanti cheated with multiple men, while Ashanti’s lyrics in her song “Never Should Have” hinted that Nelly was unfaithful. She opened up about feeling betrayed in a 2015 interview, and in 2018, she took shots at Nelly during a concert, showing she hadn’t completely moved on.

Meanwhile, Shantel supported Nelly through multiple scandals, even defending him against allegations of inappropriate behavior. Despite their strong bond and Nelly expressing long-term intentions, they never got engaged. After a break initiated by Shantel, Nelly ended things for good and reconnected with Ashanti.

Ashanti and Nelly’s reunion came as a surprise to many. They reconnected on stage during a versus battle set up by Fat Joe and Ja Rule, and later performed together in November 2022. Their chemistry reignited, and by April 2023, Nelly proposed to Ashanti, who soon announced her pregnancy. The couple secretly married, sharing their joy with fans.

Despite this, Shantel seems unable to move on. During a Q&A on Instagram, she threw shade at Ashanti, implying she doesn’t believe in going back to an ex. Her salty responses and public actions suggest she’s still affected by the situation, making her look bad, especially as Ashanti is now pregnant.

Ashanti is known for her sharp comebacks, and while she hasn’t responded yet, fans expect her reply to be savage. This situation has garnered mixed reactions from fans, some of whom sympathize with Shantel, while others celebrate Ashanti and Nelly’s happy ending. What do you think about this drama?
