Nicki Minaj Secretly Welcomed Her First Child with Husband Kenneth Petty—Here’s What We Know

The news didn’t come as a huge surprise to fans, since pregnancy rumors had been swirling for a few months. It all started when Minaj participated in a Q&A on Twitter, where she low-key teased that she was expecting her first child with Petty.

When one user asked what she’s been cooking during self-quarantine, Minaj implied that she was experiencing pregnancy cravings, and it didn’t go unnoticed.

She wrote, “Absolutely. Steak. Shrimp. Plus my famous cheeseburgers. So good. Been rlly having red meat cravings then salad cravings with extra jalapeños. Ordered Chkn nachos that didn’t come w/jalapeños. Who does that? Wow.”

Minaj also joked about her symptoms, writing, “Lmao. No throwing up. But nausea and peeing nonstop. Omg what do u think this means guys???? Lmaooooooooooo.”

Minaj and Petty have known each other since they were teenagers, but their relationship wasn’t always romantic. After finally hitting it off, the pair tied the knot back in October 2019.

Congratulations to the proud parents!
