Photos and videos shared on social media, showed the Baby, Baby, Baby singer in a stunning white gown with elegant cutouts, showcasing her prominent baby bump. Completing her look with a flower headdress and braided ponytail, the 43-year-old singer joyfully cradled her big belly. Another image captured her cutting into a beautiful white cake adorned with animals and the inscription Baby Haynes.

According to the YBF Daily, the couple hosted their extravagant baby shower at Oheka Castle in New York, a luxurious French-style hotel nestled on a vast 443-acre estate in Cold Spring Harbor, Long Island. Attendees were welcomed by striking photos from Ashanti’s maternity shoot held in June, setting the tone for the glamorous affair. Video footage obtained by the outlet showcased Ashanti dancing and laughing, clearly enjoying the festivities.

This is the second baby shower held for the soon-to-be mama.

Ashanti’s beautiful baby shower comes almost two weeks after Nelly hosted an intimate gathering on June 30 at the Dolce & Gabbana children’s boutique in NYC, where close friends and family joined to celebrate their precious bundle of joy.

Clips from the surprise ceremony were shared on It Girl Public Relations’ Instagram and captured Ashanti in a stunning yellow floral Dolce & Gabbana ensemble, emerging from an elevator with a delighted expression as she entered the surprise celebration in awe.

The Rock With You singer appeared visibly touched as she embraced a loved one, while proud dad Nelly beamed with joy in her presence. White and yellow balloons were scattered throughout the venue, perfectly matching the R&B star’s maternity gown. Fat Joe, his wife, Lorena Cartagena, and rising singer and songwriter, Breland, were among those who attended the adorable event.

Nelly and Ashanti announced their first pregnancy together in April, coinciding with news of their engagement. The duo confirmed the news shortly after a viral video captured Nelly rubbing on the New York native’s stomach several times during the rapper’s 11th annual Black and White Ball on Dec. 3.

The lovebirds, who reignited their romance in 2023, continued to make headlines when several reports revealed in June that they had married. Records indicate they obtained their marriage license in Nelly’s home state of Missouri.

Congrats to Ashanti and Nelly!
