Cardi B has filed for divorce from her husband, Offset, according to a new report by TMZ. The breakup, reportedly a “long time coming,” follows rumors of their impending split that began circulating last December. Despite the separation being described as amicable, Cardi has hired a divorce lawyer and is seeking primary custody of their two children, Kulture Kiari and Wave Set.
The two rappers, who tied the knot in a secret ceremony in 2017, have had a tumultuous relationship, with Cardi filing for divorce once before in September 2020, only to reconcile later. Sources close to the couple indicate that the separation was not due to infidelity but rather a growing disconnect between them. Cardi has previously hinted at their issues on social media, expressing her frustration and pain.
Cardi’s candid revelations about their relationship struggles have been shared with her fans, including an Instagram Live session where she admitted to being single and unsure of how to break the news. In past interviews, she described their relationship as a “yin and yang” dynamic, emphasizing their love for family and mutual support despite their differences. However, recent posts and subsequent deletions on social media suggest lingering tensions.
As Cardi and Offset move towards finalizing their divorce, the focus remains on their children and navigating their co-parenting relationship. The split marks another chapter in their high-profile relationship, which has been closely followed by fans and media alike.
