Cardi B has officially announced her third pregnancy and filed for divorce from her husband, Offset. The Bronx star revealed her pregnancy on social media, sharing photos of her baby bump while dressed in a feathery red outfit. She posed in front of the NYC skyline, captioning her post with heartfelt words.

“With every ending comes a new beginning!” Cardi wrote. “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!”

A New Chapter For Cardi B

Cardi B expressed her excitement about the future, emphasizing the strength her children give her. “It’s so much easier taking life’s twists, turns, and tests laying down, but you, your brother, and your sister have shown me why it’s worth it to push through!” she continued. Cardi and Offset share two children: Kulture, 6, and Wave, 2.

However, the joyous announcement was followed by the news of her divorce from Offset. TMZ reported that Cardi filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. A source revealed, “The filing was a long time in coming and they’re just disconnected from each other.”

Balancing Motherhood and Career

Despite the personal upheaval, Cardi B remains focused on her career and upcoming album. “I love you so much and cannot wait for you to witness what you helped me accomplish, what you pushed me to do!” she shared. The rapper’s highly anticipated album will be her sophomore LP, following her Grammy-winning debut, Invasion of Privacy.

Cardi B has always been open about the challenges of balancing her career and motherhood. “My kids come first. My kids come before anything,” she told Rolling Stone. The rapper has relied on her parents for support but remains dedicated to her children’s well-being.

In an Instagram Live session in December 2023, Cardi revealed she had been single for a while but struggled to share the news publicly. “I’ve been single for a minute now,” she said. “But I have been afraid… Not afraid, I just don’t know how to tell the world.”

Cardi B and Offset’s relationship has seen its share of ups and downs. They married in September 2017 but faced multiple separations due to alleged infidelity. Despite the turmoil, Cardi emphasized their deep connection, stating, “There’s a lot of love, passion, and trust. It’s always us against the world.”

As Cardi B navigates this new chapter, her fans continue to support her. One comment on her pregnancy post read, “No matter what the media has to say, Cardi B is a great mother.” Another added, “Sending you so much love! You’re amazing, and I’m wishing you a healthy and amazing pregnancy.”
