Rapper Remy Ma will marry long-term partner Papoose in prison next month. The hip-hop star - real name Remy Smith - faces 25 years in jail after she was found guilty of shooting of a woman outside a New York nightclub last year.

But rapper Papoose - real name Shamele Mackie - is determined to proceed with the nuptials.

In a statement released to website AllHipHop.com, Mackie says, "We always wanted to keep out personal lives personal so that's why we never went public with our relationship [until] right now. I just feel like she gotta live through me. Yes, we were scheduled to be married on a yacht April 27, but due to circumstances beyond our control we are now making arrangements to be married in prison."
