Nicki Minaj is letting the world know that her family life is thriving amid her recent legal woes. The rapper, who is currently on her Pink Friday 2 World Tour, threw the internet into a frenzy days ago when she shared a cryptic post. Fans immediately took it to mean that there was trouble in her marital paradise with her husband, Kenneth Petty. However, the artist wasted no time clearing up the speculations with the sweetest gesture.
Days after her viral tweet, the FTCU artist, in a rare move, shared a sweet video of her family joining her on tour. An Instagram video showed Minaj waiting to board a private jet with her son, Papa Bear, and her husband. The trio was videoed at the stairs of the plane trying to convince the toddler to climb up into the aircraft. Petty couldn’t help but laugh at his son throwing tantrums about embarking on the plane. The family of three looked in great spirits, with each member decked in designer brands.
Minaj left her post captionless, letting the family bond do all the talking. Her fans praised the gesture in the comments section. “Queen Nicki shut the haters down under a minute, and I love it. Family time,” gushed one follower while another wrote, “She said single meeting music. Let her be a mom and enjoy her family time in private. Queen, give us the new music soon.”
The confusion began days ago when Minaj tweeted, “Yes Single …” Without any context to the tweet, fans immediately began wondering if her marriage to Petty was on the rocks. “so are we getting a new single or are you single..” wondered a fan. Another similar comment read, “The barbz are eating regardless. Either she’s dropping a single, or she’s dropping that man. Either way, the fans are eating good.” Nicki Minaj and Kenneth Petty’s marriage has often been under scrutiny, given his status as a registered sex offender, but it seems she continues to stand by him.
