“After our breakup, I didn’t think we’d ever have a conversation again,” the 43-year-old explained.

However, fate had other plans, leading to them starting their own family, while also planning a wedding.

“It was such a beautiful, intimate moment…I cried, and I gave him the biggest hug and kiss ever,” she revealed of her engagement to the 49-year-old.

The duo shocked Hollywood by getting secretly married in December 2023, as confirmed by ET. While fans await an actual wedding ceremony, Ashanti gave a few hints of what to expect.

She added, “I think its going to be a combination of fashion, glam, [and] Caribbean vibes.”

However, supporters will most likely have to wait until after the baby is born to see Ashanti walk down the aisle. As for their reality show, no further details were revealed on what network it will air on. In the meantime, the couple appears to be basking in their renewed love and baby on the way.
