You know Cardi B. She’s the rapper known for being particularly vulgar about…well, everything. She’s also known for her vocal support of Bernie Sanders, which obviously raised eyebrows, but also her brutal takedown of New York Democrats for destroying the city.
Well, she’s back in the news, and it’s for good and bad reasons.
Cardi B has welcomed her third child, a baby girl, just over a month after filing for divorce from her estranged husband, Offset.
Yes, his name is Offset.
In her divorce petition, Cardi requested primary custody of their children and child support, citing irreconcilable differences as the cause of their split, with no prospects of reconciliation.
The couple, who married in 2017, have had an on-again, off-again relationship, first separating in 2018 amid rumors of Offset’s infidelity. Despite their reunions and public displays of affection in the years that followed, they broke up again in 2020, and Cardi filed for divorce once more in 2023. Although they briefly reunited in 2024, they officially ended their relationship in August of the same year.
During her pregnancy, Cardi addressed rumors about bleaching her skin on social media, explaining that her pale complexion was due to anemia and the physical toll of pregnancy. She dismissed the allegations with a sharp response, emphasizing the reality of her health condition.
As Cardi B continues to navigate motherhood and her complex relationship with Offset, their shared history reflects the ups and downs of their seven-year marriage, marked by love, challenges, and multiple attempts at reconciliation.
But it’s…kinda messed up, right?
In case you forgot what Cardi B had to say about New York: In November 2023, she took to social media to criticize the city’s political leaders for the destruction of New York via budget cuts. Cardi expressed frustration over rising crime rates, poor living conditions, and what she saw as the government’s failure to address these problems. She blamed both the mayor and state officials for neglecting the needs of everyday people, saying that policies aimed at improving the city were falling short and harming its residents.
She was right to complain, too – New York has spent $5 billion on catering to illegal aliens so far, and that budget is expected to triple by next year…while local residents are left with dwindling public services.
