Nicki Minaj is NOT married to Jailbird Beau Kenneth Petty

Nicki Minaj would not have tied the bond with her boyfriend Kenneth Petty, although she referred to him as her "husband" during his radio show last week.

The rapper, aged 36, told her listeners that her "husband" had often given her the lotion to mbadage her feet while recording her Beats 1 radio show, Queen Radio.

However, sources have since told TMZ that although she is "very in love with Kenneth," the two women still have not walked in the aisles and have been denied information about a marriage.

The website also suggested that Nicki was "tired" of people hitting her boyfriend because she did not care about Kenneth's past because he treated her well.

MailOnline has contacted Nicki's representative for a comment.

Speaking in London, the Chun-Li hitmaker recently revealed that the music industry insider was pampering her every night with a foot mbadage.

She said: "Every night, when I get out of the shower, my husband takes this very good lotion we just bought, he mbadages my feet and rubs them.

"He rubs his toes individually, heels and soles, and he does everything," the rapper added.

Nicki raised her eyebrows when she confirmed her romantic relationship with Kenneth – who allegedly was the victim of two violent driving offenses in 2010 for threats and fights.

According to TMZ, Kenneth spent seven years behind bars for first degree manslaughter, for which he pleaded guilty after being charged with second degree murder.

Citing insiders in law enforcement, the website said that Kenneth shot a Lamont Robinson three times around the corner of a Queens street in April 2002.

Kenneth and some of his badociates allegedly made their way across the street from Lamont, after which Kenneth exited the vehicle and headed for his victim before belly.

However, soon after formalizing their relationship, Nicki defended her new handsome as she responded to a fan who defended her.

"He was 15, she was 16 … as a couple. But go ahead, Internet. You can not run my life. You can not even run your own life. Thank you boo, she replied.
