Love is in the air! 10 years after they broke up, Nelly finally confirmed that he and his ex-girlfriend, Ashanti, are dating again. This comes after rumors that the pair reconciled over the past few months.
In an interview with Rasheeda and Kirk Frost, as posted by The Shade Room online, the singer confirmed that he and the singer reunited and it surprised the two of them.
"Yeah, we cool again... I think it surprised both of us though," he said. (via Page Six)
He added that the reconciliation wasn't anything and they didn't plan it at all. He further explained that one of the probable reasons why they made up was due to the time they spent apart.
"I think we both were pretty much doing what we do, but sometimes being separate you understand one another more," he added.
Nelly later noted that their relationship now is completely different than it was 10 years ago because at the time, there was pressure from the public and a lot of people were "in the middle of it" and it was tough for them.
