Cardi B Breaks Down Cost of Her Kids’ Nanny, Chef, Driver & More

by

All Cardi B wanna see is the money.

The reason behind it is that the rapper known as “WAP” had no qualms about disclosing the expenses associated with raising her three children, which include Kulture (6 years old), Wave (3 years old), and Blossom (8 months old). She also took a stand against her ex-partner, accusing him of not contributing sufficiently to the family’s financial responsibilities.

Cardi, following her divorce filing in July, shared some insights about the children’s expenses during a discussion on X Spaces (previously Twitter Spaces) on May 30. She mentioned that they have a dedicated driver for their kids, whose services cost $10,000 per month.

Instead of paying for his daughter Kulture’s private school tuition (approximately $45,000), the 32-year-old alleged that Offset hadn’t contributed to this expense.

She mentioned that Kulture and Wave receive tutoring four days a week. “Kulture takes piano lessons which cost $300 per hour, and she has three of these sessions each week,” she explained. “As for the costs of Kulture’s gymnastics and Wave’s boxing classes, I’m not certain about the exact amounts, but I do cover those expenses as well.

But that’s only a fraction of the kids’ expenses, according to Cardi.

The Grammy-winning artist revealed that their cousin takes care of Wave and Kulture. She earns $3,000 per week for this task, as their youngest daughter has a separate nanny who is paid $500 per shift since she works during the daytime only.

She pointed out, “Beyond what we eat, it’s worth mentioning that our household employs a private chef from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., which I cover the costs for, as no one in our home has the spare time for cooking due to their busy schedules.

In addition to everything else, Cardi mentioned that she has primarily covered the expenses for their children’s accommodation, as well as maintaining a 24/7 security detail outside their home because of threats they’ve faced previously.

She stated, addressing Offset, “I acquired that responsibility through hard work and emotional strain. Now, you’re left to handle the expenses related to our children.

TopMob News has reached out to Offset’s rep for comment but hasn’t heard back.

Cardi openly responded to Offset (whose real name is Kiari Cephus) following his petition for alimony in his divorce papers. She expressed that by discussing his alimony demands with the media, he portrayed her as an unsupportive mother figure.

Cardi B mentioned that she personally pays more than $50,000 for her children’s expenses, and she made this statement using her real name. She added that she doesn’t receive any financial assistance in covering these costs.

For a look back at Cardi and Offset’s rollercoaster romance, read on.

On September 20, 2017, the couple secretly got married at home, only a few months into their relationship. As they shared later with their fans, a friend officiated the wedding for just the three of them: the couple and Cardi’s cousin. In an unconventional twist, Cardi declared her vows without a wedding dress, makeup, or ring!

Approximately a month following their wedding, a secret event unknown to fans at the time, Offset proposed during a packed concert by getting down on one knee and presenting an 8-carat diamond ring as the question.

Approximately half a year had passed, and on the Saturday Night Live stage, Cardi B declared that she was expecting her initial baby with Offset.

The couple celebrated their little one on the way with a fairytale baby shower that summer.

Previously, a source shared with TopMob News that it was a heartfelt moment for Offset and Cardi, and the affection between them and in the room was palpable. They’re thrilled about the upcoming arrival of their baby and eagerly awaiting its birth.

As an ardent fan, I can’t help but share my excitement about Cardi B and Offset’s precious bundle of joy, Kulture Kiari Cephus, who made her grand entrance on July 10, 2018. She’s now part of this fabulous family, joining Jordan, Kody, and Kalea – their kids from past relationships. And here’s a fascinating tidbit: the Migos members were the ones who picked our little Kulture’s unique name!

Cardi mentioned to Ellen DeGeneres that her partner was the one who chose the baby’s name. She admitted she liked the chosen name and would let him reveal it since he named the child. It’s a bit of a puzzle but once you hear it, it’s like “Ah!” she said.

2018 American Music Awards saw me witnessing an endless affection between them, as they graced the red carpet, leaving me in awe and reinforcing my fangirling obsession!

The couple brought the heat to the Jingle Ball stage with a big smooch.  

“Thank you husband. He’s so fine,” Cardi told the crowd. “That’s my baby daddy, yo.”

However, only a few short days passed, and it was revealed that Cardi B had ended their relationship due to allegations of Offset’s unfaithfulness circulating on the web.

She stated on social media that it seems our affection for each other has faded, and we’re no longer a couple. However, I’m unsure about the timing of our divorce, but I’ll forever cherish him as he’s the father of my child.

Just a short while following the announcement of their separation, Offset shared an emotional appeal on Instagram, which eventually found its place in his “Father of 4” debut studio album.

He acknowledged in the video that they are dealing with numerous issues currently, both personally and publicly. He expressed his sincere apologies to Cardi, as he acknowledges he caused her distress. He admits to engaging in actions he shouldn’t have, and for that, he offers an apology. In simpler terms, he regrets hurting her feelings, violating their trust, disrespecting their vows, and being a selfish, flawed spouse.

The following day, he unexpectedly joined her main act at the Rolling Loud Festival in Los Angeles. He brought along a cake and 2,000 roses (half white, half red) from Venus ET Fleur, which cost $15,000, to spell out “Take Me Back Cardi” as a surprise message.

Initially, Cardi B appeared displeased by Offset’s elaborate gesture, but a month later, she shared with the media that they were in the process of resolving their issues.

At the 2019 Grammy Awards red carpet, Cardi B and Offset hinted at their reconciliation through a passionate public display of affection (PDA).

And Offset later explained how they were moving forward.

In simpler terms, he explained on The Breakfast Club that progress requires going through various stages and experiences. He emphasized the importance of authentic interactions, understanding one another, and valuing each other deeply. A past error made him realize this appreciation for someone in particular.

That spring, they openly showcased their relationship through a passionate duet music video for “Clout” and an unexpected joint act at the Revolve Festival.

At the 2019 Billboard Music Awards, Cardi B and Offset showed intense affection on the red carpet, displaying passionate displays of affection (PDA). They were seen playfully kissing, and at one point, he even picked her up.

At the 2019 BET Awards, the trendy pair struck an alluring posture, and took to social media to express their affection for one another with heartfelt messages.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I can’t help but express the heartfelt sentiments shared by none other than Cardi B on her Instagram page. She penned, “I adore you,” accompanied by snapshots from their memorable event. To which Offset responded, “I cherish you even more.” Their affectionate exchange speaks volumes about the depth of their bond.

On the stroke of midnight, Kulture’s first birthday was celebrated by the joyful family with a piece of cake. Following this, they organized a large gathering – indeed, a very large gathering – to commemorate the special event, inviting their closest friends and relatives.

In December 2019, Cardi B and her daughter Kulture graced the cover of Vogue magazine, with the Grammy-winning artist opening up about her husband’s unfaithfulness in a candid interview.

She shared with the magazine that she advocates for forgiveness. After much thought, she and her spouse both sought guidance through prayer. They were visited by priests, and ultimately reached a realization: essentially, they view themselves as united against whatever challenges life may bring their way.

Cardi emphasized, “He stands by me in all things, and I stand by him in all things.” She explained, “Therefore, if you are unfaithful, you are betraying the one who supports you the most. Why would you do that? Our agreement is clear. For my part, I believe monogamy is the best choice. If you cheat on me, I’ll confront you about it.

The family celebrated Cardi’s second Mother’s Day, which Offset commemorated with a loving message.

On Instagram, he expressed his sentiment for Mother’s Day: “Ever since I met you, it’s been love. Thank you for our beautiful daughter who is smart, has your attitude, and shares our talent. Both my kids and you have helped me grow into a better person all around. Thank You, Wife!

Recently, the musician known as “WAP” announced that she has filed for divorce from her husband following three years of marriage. According to documents obtained by TopMob News, Cardi’s legal representatives stated that the marriage is beyond repair and there is no hope for reconciliation.

About two months since they parted, the pair announced they were attempting to reignite their romance. To TopMob News, Offset’s lawyer confirmed then that “the divorce initiated by Cardi B has been withdrawn.

During their performance at the 2021 BET Awards alongside her husband and the Migos, Cardi B revealed that she is expecting her second child with Offset.

On Sept. 6, 2021, the parents announced their baby’s birth.

They happily announced their long-awaited reunion with their son, expressing immense affection for him. He is cherished by both family and friends, and they eagerly anticipate presenting him to his other siblings.

Seven months later, Cardi and Offset revealed the little one’s name: Wave Set Cephus.

And the “Money” artist was excited about their new chapter.

She shared with TopMob News in November 2021 that there were difficulties we faced, “However, we took the time to understand one another better. Yet, I must admit, I’ve never been more content. It’s not just about being married; it’s about creating a family, fostering unity, and cherishing our friendship – knowing that we can rely on each other.

After almost five years together, Cardi B reflected on the early stages of their married life.

She shared with Essence in their 2022 cover story that despite our initial year being filled with love, we had an abundance of physical attraction instead of true understanding. Since he was performing in four shows weekly and I was doing the same, we barely knew each other as we would only see each other a few times a month.

The “Up” rapper also shed some light on why she called off their divorce back in 2020.

On the January 2023 installment of The Jason Lee Show, she elaborated, “What I most desired was for him to halt his actions, and he did. He transformed, demonstrating his desire to change for me.

Over the course of time, I found myself growing stronger with Offset, and our bond was continuously strengthening. It wasn’t long before we discovered that we were expecting a new addition to our family, baby Wave. With this revelation, I chose to extend another chance to Offset, recognizing the effort he was putting forth in our relationship. As they say, it’s clear when someone is genuinely trying.

In simpler terms, Cardi B has announced on Instagram Live that she and Offset have broken up once more, stating that she’s been single for some time.

Following their joint New Year’s Eve celebration, fans raised questions about their relationship status, prompting Cardi B to provide some explanation to clear up any confusion.

She clarified to her followers the following day, “I’m not saying we’re reconciled yet,” she explained, “A fun night out and spending a long time together doesn’t equate to fixing our issues. What’s required is effort in addressing our problems and improving our communication. He has areas he needs to focus on, as do I.

So, as Cardi put it, they were “testing the space.”

Rumors of reconciliation arose when Cardi B and Offset were spotted attending the same Met Gala after-party in the year 2024.

She explained to Rolling Stone during the same month that they carefully consider their marriage. ‘We ponder it,’ she said, ‘because we truly care for each other. It’s not just about love. We’re more like best friends. It’s as if she asked, ‘How do you part ways with your dearest friend?’ Instead of ‘How do you leave a spouse?’, it’s more like, ‘How do you stop conversing with your closest ally?’

On August 1, Cardi’s representative confirmed to Page Six that she had initiated a divorce from Offset, marking the end of their seven-year marriage on July 31.
