Nicki Minaj sparks divorce rumors after posting cryptic ‘single’ tweet.
Nicki Minaj has ignited divorce rumors after posting a cryptic tweet about being single. The 42-year-old rapper, who married her high school sweetheart Kenneth Petty in 2019, shared a tweet on Monday saying, “yes single,” which led fans to speculate about her relationship status or the possibility of new music.
One fan asked, “So are we getting a new single or are you single?” while another commented, “We love you no matter what, idc if you’re single or dropping a new single.”
Another fan praised Nicki’s self-promotion tactic, saying, “Dear rap girlies, this is how you pull a PR stunt. Literally two words and she ate.”
This post comes after Kenneth Petty petitioned a court in April to allow him to leave the U.S., as he remains on probation following his 2021 conviction for failing to register as a sex offender.
Petty, 46, stated in court documents reviewed by TMZ that it is essential for him to join Nicki on her European Pink Friday 2 tour to accompany their three-year-old son.
The probation officer overseeing Petty’s case, originally from his 1995 first-degree attempted rape conviction, has not raised any objections to his travel request, according to court documents.
Petty made headlines last September when he was sentenced to 120 days of house arrest for violating probation after posting social media clips with aggressive messages towards Migos rapper Offset.
