Nicki Minaj has been keeping a relatively low media profile (compared to her usual attention-seeking antics) lately. Also out of character ā Nicki generally doesnāt say much about her personal life, but now she has a big annoucement. According to E!, Nicki is engaged to fellow rapper Meek Mill. This happened fast. Theyāve been making googly eyes at each other on Instagram and havenāt been together long. Nicki previously dated Safaree Samuels for 14 years. TMZ reported on their dramatic breakup that happened last fall. Nicki (allegedly) attacked Safareeās car with a baseball bat during an argument.
Nickiās been dating Meek for less than six months. The exact timeline isnāt certain, but Nicki flashed her huge engagement ring on Instagram. What do you think?
I think itās pretty awful, yet itās completely Nickiās style. This is like Lady Gagaās ring, only worse. Heart-shaped rings are fine, but this looks like costume jewelry. Nickiās taste always runs towards flashy though. Her engagement ring should be no exception. Her wedding dress (if she makes it that far with Meek) should be a disaster.
E! confirmed the big news with a Nicki insider, who says, āBoth Meek and Nicki have been spending amazing quality time together lately and have gotten extremely close these past few months. It may seem like it all is happening very quickly but Nicki and Meek are in this 100. They truly love each other.ā E! also spoke with a jeweler who eyeballed this ring as āa 15-carat fancy yellow heart modified brilliant cut diamond mounted in platinum with a double halo of white pavĆ© diamonds.ā The estimated cost runs about $500,000. Ouch.
