Rapper Nas has recently revealed that he still thinks marriage is a beautiful thing despite his own marriage to singer Kelis not working out.

He talked about his separation from his ex-wife and how he has no regrets about their four-year marriage.

On BBC 1Xtra Nas said: “It took me by surprise that today's game, though, no matter who you are, you can wind up out there. Your business be out there. That's just the way it is. I don't know what to do about that, you can't control it, it is what it is.

"I wish everybody the best; I wish the best for everybody. I ain't tripping, life is life. I love life. You live and learn. You just keep growing. Yeah. It's tough bruh, but yo, I dive in. I goes in. I still think marriage is a beautiful thing, it's a beautiful thing, and you just gotta be strong to weather the ups and downs. I think it's a good thing to marry.

Nas added: “I had great hopes. I thought we were going to go through it big, but two people are not, we gotta become one mind in a way. Two people think about life different, they see things different and then you just grow in different directions but I had a great time. Shout-out to my son Knight, he'll be one tomorrow."
