Remy Ma and Papoose

Congratulations to hip-hop artist Remy Ma and her husband Papoose who are expecting their first child together. The couple who’s been married for 10 years, have children from previous relationships. Remy and Papoose shared the happy news with their guests during their vow renewal ceremony over the weekend.

The couple tied the knot in 2008 while Remy was in jail serving an eight-year sentence for shooting a woman outside a club. She was sentenced after being found guilty of assault, weapon possession and attempted coercion and spent six years behind bars.

We wish them well on their new journey!

This weekend I celebrated a milestone with my best friend, my partner in everything, my husband, my forever @papoosepapoose I love you so much- not only because you are the perfect soulmate but because you are the epitome of a real man, the essence of a great father, and the definition of loyalty & if I could start life over the only thing I would change is meeting you sooner so that I can spend more time with you? We’ve known each other 13 years & been married a decade? we renewed our vows amongst our closest friends and family members It was a small, intimate setting and one of the most precious moments of my life…thank you Husband, u always make me happy ? #BlackloveForever #MeetTheMackies #RemAndPap #RemyMa #RemyMafia
