Rapper Snoop Dogg Celebrates 19th Wedding Anniversary with Epic Throwback Photo

Cordozar Calvin Broadus, Jr. popularly known as Snoop Dogg is celebrating his 19th wedding anniversary with his longtime love Shante Broadus.

The rapper took to Instagram today to share an absolutely epic throwback photo of himself and his glamorous wife in honor of their anniversary and he captioned the snap: “19. Years today @bosslady_ent Happy anniversary been a1 from day 1. thanks for my kids.”

The powerful couple began dating when they were teenagers before the rapper became Snoop D-O-double-G and acquired an over-$100 million net worth, and the rapper ultimately put a ring on his high school sweetheart’s finger in 1997, Eonline reports.

The couple, however started having issues at some point in time, leading Snoop to file for divorce, citing “irreconcilable differences” in 2004, but the split didn’t last long.

Snoop told MTV: “I was trying to get a divorce, but I went back home and I fell back in love with my wife and kids. A lot of times you get cloudy.

“This music industry is a mother, man, and it’ll take your vision and blur it. But God is good, so I understand that I need my wife and my kids in my life—so I threw the papers away.

”I don’t want to get a divorce. So if you hear about a divorce, it’ll be my wife divorcing me. It won’t be me divorcing her…And I made a mistake, so I’m trying to get back right.”

He continues: “A whole lot of begging and pleading…it was up to me to try to put it back together, because I’m the one who said I didn’t want to be a part of it no more…It’s hard now to this day.

”It’s still hard because there’s a lot of, you know—there’s a lot of roller coaster to a relationship. You know, we’ve been together for 17 or 18 years. We’ve been married for 10 years, but, at the same time, it’s like, you know, some people in life are chosen for you. And I feel like we’re chosen for each other.”

The couple have four adorable children together.

They renewed their wedding vows on Jan. 12, 2008, on singer, Charlie Wilson‘s 20-acre ranch, which was a surprise ceremony for Shante where they reclaimed their love for one another in front of 200 of their nearest and dearest friends and loved ones.
