Ashanti and Nelly opened up about their rocky past and plans for the future in a new reality series that follows their life as partners and parents.
Ashanti and Nelly didn’t hold back in the teaser for their upcoming reality series Nelly and Ashanti: We Belong Together, where the couple opened up about the bitterness that followed their 2013 breakup and the unexpected path that led them back to each other.
The Hip-Hop duo, now married and raising a son, sat side by side in a confessional moment from the show, reflecting on the emotional fallout of their split.
“I hated her,” Nelly admitted. Ashanti echoed the sentiment with, “I hated him.” She added, “I didn’t think that we would get back together,” before Nelly smiled and said, “She got me y’all!”
The series, which offers a behind-the-scenes look at their life as newlyweds and parents while juggling demanding careers, is set to chronicle their journey from estranged exes to a committed couple.
The two tied the knot in December 2023 and welcomed their first child, a son, in July of the same year.
In the trailer, Ashanti reflects on how their relationship has evolved since their earlier days. “We have grown. We’re adults,” she said. Nelly followed up with, “But we’re still trying to have fun.”
Earlier this year, Ashanti told E! News that the couple is planning to expand their family.
“We’re going to add some more,” she said. “Definitely a girl to balance it out. I’m outnumbered in the house right now. So a girl would be great.”
Nelly and Ashanti: We Belong Together is expected to premiere later this year.
