Nicki Minaj and Kenneth Petty welcomed their first child together in September 2020, a year after they married.
The couple have faced controversy over the past few years, as Petty has been sentenced to a year of in-home detention and three years of probation after failing to register as a sex offender.
Nicki is yet to announce the name of her son, but often refers to him as ‘Papa Bear’ on social media.
