Nicki Minaj has shared a collection of sweet family photos that feature her husband, Kenneth Petty, and son, who she affectionately calls Papa Bear.
Nicki took to Instagram on Tuesday (April 16) to share an array of adorable pictures showing her posing next to her hubby and three-year-old son, with her two men both rocking New York Yankees hats.
The trio appear to be in a restaurant in Chicago, which was tagged as the location in the post. The rapper’s Pink Friday 2 Tour swings through the Windy City next week as its North American leg reaches its climax.
She captioned the post: “Go PAPA!!!!! Mommy & Daddy loveeeee youuuuuuuuuuuu [hands forming heart emoji].”
Nicki Minaj has only sparingly shared images or details of Papa Bear since his birth in December 2020, but she couldn’t help but share an adorable moment of her son last month.
The superstar mom brought her aforementioned tour to her hometown of New York City at the end of March, and was apparently joined by members of her family, including her infant son.
In a clip that made the social media rounds, the little boy could be seen dancing in the crowd as his mom’s 2010 hit “Roman’s Revenge” was heard playing in the background.
Papa Bear isn’t the only special guest to have joined Nicki on her Pink Friday 2 Tour so far. During a stop in Boston earlier in April, the Young Money hitmaker surprised fans by bringing out JT from City Girls, BIA, Maliibu Miitch, Katie Got Bandz and Akbar V to perform their “Super Freaky Girl (Queen Mix).”
Nicki later reflected on the special night on social media while sharing photos and videos of the posse cut performance.
“Wow. Wow. Wow. Idk where to start,” she wrote enthusiastically. “#GAGCITYBOSTON [NIGHT 2] might be one of the loudest audiences I’ve ever experienced [face with mouth open emoji] I gotta go check the archives. [grinning face with sweat emoji] Love you. Like I REALLY REALLY LOVE YOU. God bless you guys.
“THE QUEENS CAME OUT TONIGHT & REPRESENTED THEIR CITIES & THEIR CRAFTS SO WELL. PRETTY IN REAL LIFE. I’m SOOOOOOOOOO grateful for the light & energy you guys brought to #GAGCITY.”
She has also been joined on stage by the likes of 50 Cent, Jadakiss and 2 Chainz since the tour began at the beginning of March.
