Nelly and Ashanti Appeared to Rekindle Their Romance Earlier This Year

Nelly and Ashanti first sparked dating rumors back in February when they were spotted donning matching chains. They were then spotted holding hands at a boxing match in April.

This isn’t Nelly and Ashanti’s first romantic entanglement. Ashanti and Nelly began dating in 2003 and were together for 11 years before going their separate ways in 2014. Their relationship made the headlines last August when Irv Gotti claimed on Drink Champs he was upset when he found out Ashanti started dating Nelly after him. Nelly then appeared to throw a dig at Irv during a show with Ashanti.

Nelly then confirmed in September that he and Ashanti were back together, saying in an appearance on Philo TV’s Boss Moves with Rasheeda that they were “cool again.”

He said the romance, “surprised both of us though.”
