Cardi B Welcomes Baby No. 3 With Estranged Husband Offset, Shares Photos From Hospital
Congratulations are in order for Cardi B and Offset, who welcomed their third baby together a few days ago.
The “WAP” rapper confirmed the news with an Instagram post Thursday (Sept. 12), sharing photos from the hospital where she gave birth and confirming that their new addition had been born five days prior. “The prettiest lil thing … 9/7/24.”

Billboard has reached out to both artists’ reps for comment.
In some of the pictures she shared, Cardi cradles her new bundle of joy — dressed in a pink onesie and cap to match the pink emojis in the musician’s caption — while sitting up in her hospital bed. Other photos find the Migos rapper and their 6-year-old daughter Kulture taking turns holding the baby as 3-year-old son Wave keeps more of a distance, hanging out next to his dad.
The little one’s arrival makes the “I Like It” musician a mom of three, while ‘Set is also dad to 14-year-old Jordan, 9-year-old Kody and 9-year-old Kalea from past relationships.
Cardi announced that she was pregnant with baby No. 3 at the beginning of August, the same day Billboard confirmed that she’d filed for divorce from the “Stir Fry” artist for a second time. Sharing photos of her bump, the Grammy winner wrote, “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! Reminded me that I can have it all!” she added at the time. “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!”
The former couple — who tied the knot in 2017 — seems to be on solid ground in spite of their split, which a rep confirmed to Billboard in August was “not based on any one particular incident … it has been a long time coming and is amicable.” Earlier this month, Cardi and ‘Set reunited to celebrate Wave’s third birthday, joining forces to throw him a proper birthday party.
