Nicki Minaj announces she's pregnant with her first child

Rapper Nicki Minaj revealed on Monday that she is pregnant with her first child, with a heartwarming social media post.

The 37-year-old rapper shared an eye-catching snap to Instagram where she cradled her blossoming baby bump as she wore a string bikini and towering platform high heels.

Rocking a yellow wig, she showed off her body inkings as she smiled at the camera.

Nicki is expecting her child with husband Kenneth Petty, whom she wed in 2019.

She simply captioned the shot: “Preggers” followed by a yellow heart emoji.

Nicki and Kenneth wed following a year of dating.

Some sources state that Nicki met the now-40-year-old back when she was a 16-year-old living in Queens.

They allegedly dated back then, and rekindled their romance as adults.

The Anaconda singer sparked pregnancy rumours in May when she had a back and forth with a social media user on Twitter.

A fan sked the Super Bass singer: “Are you also throwing up in morning and having to go to the bathroom a lot?”

“No throwing up. But nausea and peeing non-stop,” Nicki replied.

“Omg what do u think this means guys?” she concluded the message.

Aside from the social media conversation, rumours began to swirl when she released her Trollz music video and a bunch of behind-the-scenes snaps in June, with fans believing she was hiding her stomach.
