Nicky & Kenneth are hitched!
Onika Tanya Maraj a.k.a Nicki Minaj has officially been married to Kenneth Petty. She took to Instagram where she posted a video showcasing mugs on a glittery coffee table that read “Mrs.” to his “Mr.” She also showed off white baseball caps that read “Bride” and Groom” in gold lettering. A silver sequin covered strappy heel can be seen next to the table, so it looks like whatever kind of ceremony they had was one where Barbie was dressed to the nines to become a first time bride.
Fans are eagerly awaiting the details of where they tied the knot, who was on the guest list and what her gown looks like! Celebrity pals were already sending their love, with Christina Aguilera commenting “Congrats Queen” on her post.
Nicki and Kenneth went public with their relationship late last year (2018). In December, she shared a series of photos that showed them cuddled up together on a romantic getaway in Turks and Caicos.
“He want me to be his wife – his MISSIS like SIPPI NOW,” she captioned the post. Even before the couple obtained a marriage license, Nicki had often called Kenneth her husband. Kenneth, who is featured in Nicki’s “MEGATRON” music video, has known the rapper since they were teenagers.
The two dated as teens and Nicki’s referred to him as one of her “first loves,” Petty, 40 is also from Queens, New York. He and Minaj reportedly met through mutual friends. Minaj first sparked romance rumors after she posted photos of her hanging out with Petty last month. She captioned the photo: You know the phkn vibez,” with the hashtag QGTM which stands for “Queens Get The Money”.
She also acknowledged their hometown connection by quoting Adele’s ‘Hello’ in the caption of their latest pic — “Did you ever make it out of that town where nothing ever happens? … it’s no secret … that the both of us … are running out of time.”
