In the world of hip-hop, love stories can be as tumultuous as their chart-topping hits. The rollercoaster ride that is Cardi B and Offset’s relationship has been nothing short of dramatic, leaving fans on the edge of their seats.


This “spicy mami” is a mother of three.

Cardi B and her former partner Offset, with whom they share a 6-year-old daughter Kulture and a 2-year-old son Wave, have added another member to their family just over a month since filing for divorce. This new arrival expands their family further.

Cardi titled a September 12 Instagram post featuring family pictures at the hospital as follows: “The most charming little one,” referring to the baby born on September 7, 2024.

On August 1st, the rapper known for “WAP” revealed her pregnancy on Instagram, mere hours after filing for divorce from a fellow 32-year-old rapper. In the caption of the post featuring her baby bump, she expressed gratitude for the past relationship, stating that it had brought her love, life, and renewed strength, reminding her that she is capable of achieving everything.

She mentioned that I’ve reminded her she doesn’t need to pick between living, loving, and pursuing her passion. She adores me so much and is eager for me to see what she’ll achieve, thanks in part to your encouragement. It might seem simpler to accept life’s challenges without a fight, but you, your brother, and sister have demonstrated why it’s valuable to persevere!

As per her latest court documents regarding divorce, this mother of three has asked for primary custody of their children while also seeking child support from one of the members of Migos (the rap group).

The petition explained that Cardi and Offset’s disagreements became too great, leading to the collapse of their marriage, and there was no chance for them to make up.

The pair who got married in 2017 have experienced periods of separation multiple times during their relationship. Their initial breakup occurred in 2018 due to whispers about infidelity.

In 2019, the two of them got back together and were seen showing affection publicly at various award ceremonies. However, they split up once more in 2020, leading Cardi to file for divorce. She withdrew the divorce proceedings later that year, but they broke up again by 2023. After reuniting on New Year’s Eve in 2024, Cardi provided some insights into their tumultuous relationship and the current state of their marriage.

Cardi explained to Rolling Stone in May 2024 that they carefully consider their relationship because of the love they share. She said, “It’s not just about love; we’re more like best friends. It’s hard for me to imagine a time when I didn’t have this best friend or support system. It’s not about how to leave a partner, but rather, how do you stop conversing with your best friend?

However, with their relationship concluding in August, the 31-year-old found herself grappling not just with the bodily aspects of her pregnancy, but also addressing whispers on social media, questioning if the artist was lightening her complexion.

As a devoted admirer, when I inquired Cardi B about the rumors, she swiftly retorted, “Pregnancy bleaching? Oh, you people just can’t seem to get it right! Not true, actually.

She explained, “I’m pregnant and slightly anemic,” revealing some of the challenging aspects of pregnancy for her. “The baby is draining so much energy from my body that I’ve become pale, my eyes are sunken, my veins appear greenish, and I can’t tan because I get hot quickly and feel dizzy…” She asked for understanding and consideration in her difficult situation.
