Shelah Marie Is Ace Hood's Wife — Facts about Them

Shelah Marie, Ace Hood's wife, founded a safe space for women to talk about their experiences and journey towards becoming empowered.

Ace Hood built his name in the music industry in the late 2000s, having released albums that became well-loved by fans and music enthusiasts. He was mentored by DJ Khaled until opportunities for him to become famous came left and right.

In 2009, he landed the cover of XXL magazine for its annual 10 Freshmen issue. Other rappers, including Kid Cudi and B.o.B., were also part of those listed as Most Influential by XXL Magazine.

Hood had several performances in the years that followed and was recognized with awards for his songs. However, fans did not know that the young artist struggled financially and personally behind the scenes.

Hood eventually went off the grid and focused on making songs. "I took time off, stayed in the lab, and recorded. I didn't travel anywhere, wasn't going to any clubs, or anything like that. All I wanted to do was record and get my sound right," he recalled.

Following his streak of success, he married Shelah Marie. Hood and Shelah have won the hearts of their followers with their adorable videos online such that fans keep track of the couple's bonding experience.

The proposal, which took place at Komodo Miami, was also posted online. Shelah was celebrating her birthday then, and as a Beyonce fan, "Formation" started playing in the background when Hood got down on one knee and proposed.

Although she married a successful musician, Shelah is also proud of her achievements. Shelah founded Curvy, Curly, Conscious, an avenue for black women to connect and share their challenging life experiences while empowering each other.

The website claims that women of color have transformed and evolved through the years, and as a community, they help each other heal from self-doubt, trauma, and low self-esteem.

"We are a group of individuals united based on shared values. Our value is your authentic identity. And Curvy, Curly, Conscious is merely the container, a holding space for you to come as you are. You will not be judged," the site added.
