Who is the mother of Nelly's kids?

Rapper Nelly has posted a family photo on his Facebook from his family-based reality show titled "Nellyville."

In the photo, Nelly is surrounded by his four children - two from his ex-girlfriend, Channeta Valentine, and the other two (his niece and nephew) whom he took in after the death of his sister, Jacqueline Donahue, in 2005.

His biological children are Chanell Haynes born, on 27th February 1994 and Cornell Haynes III, born on 2nd March 1999.

It appears that Nelly is not just a father of four, according to reports we found online, he also has two children together with fellow artist, Ashanti. However, they kept silent on the relationship, never really stating they were a couple.
