The rapper’s longtime girlfriend, Shantel Jackson, revealed that she and Nelly are dunzo by responding to a fan question on Instagram about their relationship status.
“R u nelly still together i love seeing u guys together,” one of Jackson’s followers asked on a photo Jackson posted Saturday.
“No we’re not ….. Just friends,” she replied.
The “Country Grammar” rapper, 46, and the Shoe Gummi founder — who dated for over six years — haven’t posted about each other on social media since January 2021.
In 2018, Jackson stood up for Nelly after he was accused of sexual assault, saying there was no truth to the accusations because she was “at those venues, in the dressing rooms, and on that tour bus.”
Two claims against the rapper were dropped in 2018 and 2019, according to People.
Just last year Jackson supported Nelly as he competed on Season 29 of “Dancing with the Stars.” He even went as far as to call Jackson “the one” while filming the competition show, according to People.
Nelly even suggested they would be engaged soon, telling his “DWTS” partner Daniella Karagach they were “working towards it.”
