The couple spoke at a lavish, gold-themed
50th birthday bash thrown by Ashanti at Tao in Las Vegas. Guests included
family, friends, and a surprise appearance from Kevin Hart.
While speaking to ET, Nelly joked that
turning 50 feels like turning 49, but feels great. He shared his admiration for
his wife Ashanti, who, in turn, called him her “soulmate.”
“It's priceless, honestly, just to have my
soulmate, like my person, like my best friend, like my protector,” Ashanti said
at the 47-second mark in the video below. “The universe doesn't make mistakes.”
“I don't tell him all the time, but I've
learned a lot about… just being grateful, graceful, and giving people grace.
Being open-minded and level-headed and not too emotional,” said the 44-year-old
She’s a great person, she’s a great mother.
Even when it comes to doing this—having birthday parties and things like that,”
said the “Hot In Herre” rapper. “So to have that person with you, it's like,
‘yeah, that's it,’”
The couple confirmed they rekindled their
relationship last September after nearly a decade apart and quietly married
three months later. They welcomed their first child together, a son named
Kareem, in July.
Further into the interview, Nelly quipped
about the challenges of diaper changes.
“He's a boy and you know, I've had boys,
but you're changing them. You have to duck and I've been peed on so much,”
Nelly said with a laugh. “I can't wait to show him some of the pictures and the
videos. Like, ‘Look at what your mom was doing to you.’ She treats him like a
Build-A-Bear.”
