Grammy Award-winning musician Cornell Haynes Jr., professionally known as Nelly, may soon be a father once again.

Valentine maintains a low profile, while Chanelle shows interest in the music business.

Chanelle had her first child, a son named Ace, in November 2023.

While she may have taken a step back from music, Chanelle seems to be enjoying motherhood.

Nelly also shares a son, Cornell Haynes III, known as Tre, with Valentine.

He entered the world in March 1999 and showed promising signs that he would pursue a sports career.

It appears Tre also developed a passion for traveling, sharing photos from destinations such asGreeceandItaly.

After the show concluded, it’s unclear if she ever hit the runway.

However, what is known is that she delivered a son named Cross in 2020 with partner Christian Whimbley.

Sadly, Christian has since passed away.

Shawn is a man of many talents these days.

He is also a skateboarder, as seen on hisInstagramprofile.

Even with their own lives to maintain, Nelly’s four children still appear to keep a close relationship.

Each of them came together for Nelly’s Black and White Ball in December 2023.
