Nicki has kept the real name of her son under wraps, only referring to him as “Papa” or “Papa Bear” on social media.
She revealed the nickname during her acceptance speech at the MTV Video Music Awards in August 2022.
“I have a new baby. His name is Papa Bear and I love him,” she said. “Papa Bear, I love you so much. Mommy loves you so, so, so, so, so, so, so much.”
Is Nicki Minaj pregnant with her second child?
To promote her deluxe edition of Pink Friday 2 (Gag City Edition), Nicki posted a slideshow of images, including some with her pregnancy belly in.
In the comments, fans were confused by the shot and wondering if Nicki was making a pregnancy announcement.
"2 weeks away from #GAGCITYPHILLY," she wrote in the caption. In the shot, Kenneth, 46, stood behind the rapper with his hands on her large baby bump. Nicki has not commented on the rumours she is expecting a second baby.
