Almost two weeks ago we were all patiently waiting for Ashanti and Keyshia Cole to have their ‘Verzuz’ fight when it was postponed because Ashanti signed COVID-19! Ashanti shared a message on Instagram explaining her condition and even wanted to make Verzuz. She wrote, “Hey everyone. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’ve tested positive for COVID-19. I’m fine and in no pain. I’m actually downstairs to do the Verzuz from my house … We’re trying to figure everything out !!! “
Unfortunately, the eagerly awaited battle was postponed to January 9th. Many fans were upset and called Ashanti for extensive travel during the pandemic. If you remember, she and rapper Flo Rida, as well as some of her family and friends, were in Antigua from October 12th to November 9th for her birthday. She made a trip to Kenya a few days before the battle.
After receiving a lot of backlash, she cleared the air on Instagram live, which we also reported. Ashanti advised that she appeared to have hugged a family member who tested positive and was unaware of her status.
Today Ashanti gave us an update on the health of her and her family. She shared a picture on Instagram with the caption, “Hey y’all, I want to thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers. I have received so many calls, texts, emails and DMs checking in my family and me and I am very grateful for that. I feel a lot better … thank god my mom is out of the hospital and my dad is fine. Needless to say, this will be a very different Christmas … But full of gratitude and love. Thank you, Bink, for handing in the herbal teas. Merry Christmas. “
We look forward to the good news!
