Nicki Minaj announced her marriage to Kenneth Petty on Instagram late Monday night following nearly a year of dating.
She shared her marital bliss with a video of matching “Mr. and Mrs.” mugs and coordinating “Bride” and “Groom” baseball caps.
The rapper, born Onika Tanya Maraj captioned the short clip, “???????????????????????????????? Onika Tanya Maraj-Petty 10•21•19” — referencing her new official name and seemingly the day that she and Petty officially tied the knot.
Some few months ago Nicki, 36, on her Queen Radio show revealed that she had filed for a marriage license and would be married in “about 80 days.”
Kenneth Petty who is reportedly a father of five has served seven years in jail for manslaughter after being involved in the shooting and killing of a man.
Nicki defended him earlier saying he was 15 when he was convicted of rape.
Responding to a comment on her Instagram page, she wrote:
“He was 15 ,she was 16…in a relationship.But go awf,internet .Y’all can’t run my life .Y’all can’t even run y’all own life .Thank you boo.”
Congratulations Nicki and Petty!
