Aforementioned, Nelly Furtado’s daughter was born from her years-long relationship with her DJ boyfriend, Jasper Gahunia. The former couple was reportedly friends for several years before they started their romantic relationship.
Unfortunately, Nelly and Jasper parted ways after welcoming their child. During an interview, Nelly admitted that she wasn’t into marriage when they were in a relationship. Thus, the contradicting idea about marriage might have caused the couple’s breakup.
Despite parting ways, Nelly further confirmed that she and Jasper were active co-parent and maintained a friendly relationship even after years after an amicable breakup.
According to Nelly Furtado’s IMDb, she named her daughter Nevis Chetan Gahunia after the island on which she was conceived, i.e., Kingdom of Saint Christopher and Nevis. Furthermore, Nevis is reportedly a quarter Filipino, a quarter Indian, and half Portuguese. Therefore, Nelly decided to raise her in Toronto because of its cultural diversity and grassroots political activism.
Unfortunately, Nevis doesn’t share much of her mother nor her father on Instagram, but they are constantly seen on her VSCO. Therefore, it is pretty safe to assume Nevis has maintained a strong bond with both her parents. Besides, she is also aware of her society’s mishaps and raises voices against harassment and justice.
In conclusion, Nelly Furtado’s daughter, Nevis Gahunia, is a beautiful young girl discovering her interest and having fun with friends. However, we couldn’t stop but question if Nevis will choose to pursue a music industry career or completely deviate. What do you think?
