The popular rapper Cardi B announced her third pregnancy shortly after filing for divorce from her husband, Offset. The 31-year-old artist took to Instagram on August 1 to share the news, posting two stunning photos of herself on a rooftop, proudly displaying her growing baby bump in a striking red dress.
The “Bodak Yellow” rapper captioned her post with a heartfelt message, expressing gratitude for the new chapter in her life: “With every ending comes a new beginning! I am so grateful to have shared this season with you, you have brought me more love, more life and most of all renewed my power!”
This announcement comes on the heels of Cardi B filing for divorce from Offset, her partner of nearly seven years. The couple’s relationship has been a rollercoaster ride, with this marking the third time they’ve sought legal intervention. Despite the challenges, they’ve built a family together, sharing two children: 6-year-old daughter Kulture and 2-year-old son Wave.
A representative for Cardi B stated that the divorce is “not based on any one particular incident” and is “amicable,” suggesting a long-standing decision. This echoes Cardi’s own words from December 2023, when she hinted at relationship troubles on Instagram, writing, “You know when you just outgrow relationships.”
Interestingly, this isn’t the first time the couple has faced divorce. In September 2020, Cardi B filed for divorce, claiming their marriage was “irretrievably broken.” However, they reconciled a month later, with Cardi expressing the difficulty of not talking to her “best friend.”
As Cardi B embarks on this new journey, she’s seeking primary custody of Kulture and Wave. Meanwhile, Offset, a former member of Migos, is also father to three other children from previous relationships.
Despite the tumultuous nature of her personal life, Cardi B remains optimistic and empowered. In her pregnancy announcement, she reflected on the lessons learned: “It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns and test laying down, but you, your brother and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through!”
As fans eagerly await more details about Cardi B’s pregnancy and her evolving relationship status, one thing is clear: the rapper is embracing change and looking forward to the future with renewed strength and determination.
