Ashanti<\/a> has “always dreamed” about becoming a mom.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nelly and Ashanti are expecting their first child<\/p>\n

The 43-year-old singer is expecting her first child with rapper Nelly, and Ashanti<\/a> admits that she can’t wait to become a mom.<\/p>\n

The ‘Rain on Me’ hitmaker – who is engaged to Nelly<\/a> – told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “I was so shocked and happy and emotional. I always dreamed about it.<\/p>\n

“I wanted it so, so bad and I just feel like the timing was perfect.”<\/p>\n

Nelly<\/a>, 49, announced their pregnancy news before it was even confirmed by a test result.<\/p>\n

\nAshanti has confessed to being shocked that he decided to share the news during a joint performance in St. Louis in December.<\/p>\n

\nThe singer explained: “When he blurted that out on stage, we actually did not know. I hadn’t even taken a test at that time.”<\/p>\n

\nMeanwhile, Ashanti has admitted to being caught off guard by Nelly’s proposal.<\/p>\n

\nThe singer – who dated Nelly in the 2000s, before they rekindled their romance last year – revealed that she never actually saw it coming.<\/p>\n

\nShe shared: “It was just such a beautiful, intimate moment. We were not dressy.”<\/p>\n

\nAshanti was actually wearing one of Nelly\u2019s T-shirts and a pair of boxer shorts when he proposed.<\/p>\n

\nShe said: “I felt like [the proposal] was going to come soon. I didn\u2019t know when. The way that it happened was just so funny. I\u2019m sitting in the bed watching TV with boxers on.”<\/p>\n

\nAshanti recalled feeling “shocked and surprised” in the immediate aftermath of the proposal.<\/p>\n

\nThe singer – who worked with Nelly early in her music career – said: “I gave him the biggest hug and kiss ever. I FaceTimed everyone I know \u2026 I was overjoyed and shocked and surprised and happy, kind of, like, all in one.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
