MTO WORLD EXCLUSIVE: The Barb Is Single? Kenneth Petty Moves Out Of Nicki’s Mansion And Back To Queens! (LEGAL PROOF)
Media Take Out has the absolute bombshell the Barbz have been fearing for months. While Nicki Minaj has been busy dominating the charts and preparing for the next leg of her 2026 world tour, her marriage to Kenneth “Zoo” Petty has reportedly hit a dead end.
We’ve heard the rumors of shouting matches and “lifestyle differences,” but now we have the cold, hard legal receipts. It looks like Kenneth has officially packed his bags, left the $10 million Calabasas estate, and moved all the way back to the trenches of South Jamaica, Queens.
The Legal Receipts: Megan’s Law Doesn’t Lie
In the United States, individuals convicted of sexual offenses are legally mandated to keep their residence updated on the public registry. Failure to do so can result in immediate jail time. Media Take Out performed a deep dive into the national registries this morning, April 27, 2026, and the findings are undeniable:
- California Status: Kenneth Petty is no longer registered at the Hidden Hills/Calabasas address he shared with Nicki.
- New York Status: As of late last week, Kenneth is now officially registered in the New York State Sex Offender Registry.
- The Address: His current primary residence is listed as a multi-family home in South Jamaica, Queens—the very neighborhood where he and Nicki first met as teenagers.

Bad Timing: Is There A Second Baby On The Way?
The split comes at a complicated time for the “Starships” rapper. Media Take Out has been hearing from multiple sources close to the Minaj camp that Nicki is currently PREGNANT with her second child.
Fans noticed a “suspicious” silhouette during her recent public appearances, and she has been notably avoiding tight-fitting corsets that were once her signature. If the rumors are true, Nicki is facing the prospect of being a mother of two while navigating a cross-country separation.

Why The Move?
Insiders tell Media Take Out that the pressure of the “Hollywood lifestyle” and Kenneth’s ongoing legal restrictions in California became too much.
“Kenneth never really adjusted to the Calabasas vibe,” a source whispered. “He missed his people and his block. Nicki tried to hold it together for the sake of ‘Papa Bear,’ but once the arguments started happening in front of the help, she told him it was time to take a break.”
Is Divorce On The Horizon?
As of this morning, no formal divorce papers have been filed in either California or New York. This suggests the couple might be trying a “trial separation” rather than a permanent legal split.
However, Nicki has been spotted out recently without her massive wedding ring, and her social media activity has shifted toward a more “independent” tone. For now, it seems the Queen of Rap is holding down the throne solo in Cali while her husband returns to his roots in the Big Apple.
Can Nicki and Kenneth survive a 3,000-mile separation, or is this the final chapter for the “Queen and her Zoo”? Let us know in the comments!
