Cardi B, Once Again, Files For Divorce After Offset Denies Latest Cheating Rumors
Cardi B has filed for divorce — again — following husband, Offset, denying the latest rumors of him cheating on the Invasion Of Privacy rapper.
PageSix reports that an official rep for the “Be Careful” artist confirmed that she filed divorce papers Wednesday (July 31). While the rep did not provide further details, a source reportedly revealed that Cardi will be seeking primary custody of their two children, daughter Kulture, 6, and son Wave, 2. The source added that the latest rumors surrounding Offset potentially cheating with an ex were not the final straw for the mother of two.
“They’ve grown apart. That’s what drove her to this decision more than anything else,” the insider told the publication. “This is something she wants to do.”
The former Migos member was most recently accused of stepping out on Cardi, 31, after a blurry video surfaced seemingly showing the Atlanta rhymer sitting at a table with alleged ex, Big PrettyRedz.
“Shawty ain’t my shawty,” Offset, 32, responded to the accusations, following up within the TNT comment section, “People really need to do the research…I’m at a public place gambling at a casino with a married 8 month Pregnant woman, wtf I look like being outside publicly cheating SMD!!!”
While many assumed he was speaking of Cardi being 8 months pregnant — as she is currently rumored to be with child — he later clarified that the woman in question is pregnant and married, though she lost her husband in June.
PrettyRedz confirmed her pregnancy in her own statement of denial, writing, “It’s completely crazy that I even have to do this! PLEASE! If not for me…PLEASE RESPECT MY LATE HUSBAND!” she wrote via her Instagram Story on July 30. “I am carrying the last gift my husband will give this earth. All I want it [sic] peace! If you[sic]r looking for a story…there is NOTHING to see here!!!!!”
This is far from Cardi and Offset’s first public split, as the “Enough (Miami)” rapper first announced a separation in 2018, one year into their marriage. After reconciling, Cardi filed for divorce in September 2020, taking her man back within a month. By December 2023, Cardi, once again, announced a separation from the Set It Off rapper, revealing that at that time, the couple had been separated “for a minute.” Days later, she went on a rant calling her children’s father a “bit*h a** ni**a”, but also hung out with her then-estranged hubby on New Year’s Eve, confirming they hooked up that night after both booked gigs in Miami. The pair have seemingly been in a decent place since, taking daughter Kulture to Disneyland Paris together just last month.
